Saint Charlie Posted 22 May, 2013 Share Posted 22 May, 2013 Seem to remember it was quite late last season. As you say, I would imagine a large number will be released, not really anyone who is out of contract who would be a must keep. Will be interesting to see where someone like Ben Reeves ends up.

Plus both their teams play a fair few more games than us each season. True, but I'd have said 4 CBs is the minimum you should be looking at for proper cover. A squad of 22 would typically have a reserve spot for every position on the pitch (plus maybe younger developing players), so 4 senior CBs. Jones and Luiz do double up in other positions but they were bought as CBs. If Forren isn't a complete dud I wonder if it'll turn out he can also cover LB; we'll see. But I agree that we should bring in at least one CB (personally I'd prefer a couple) and if we bring in 2 then room in the squad would have to be found. Fonte would be at risk, I reckon, as Hooiveld (however limited he is) is currently the only bruiser of a CB we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's assuming Stephens doesn't step up. If I had to pick one CB to get rid of it would either be Yoshida or Fonte and I can't see us getting rid of Yoshida.

Forren really is the fly in that ointment; its utterly impossible to tell what is expected of him other than the utterings that he's being developed or whatever. Extremely strange that he didn't get on the pitch at all this season. I really don't know what to make of that, for a mid 20s international footballer who was signed in January, yet couldn't even get ahead of Fonte in the pecking order for coming on from the bench.

Well see my comments on the end of season thread stickied at the top of the board re Forren; completely agree, I struggle to buy all this "prep for next season" nonsense, in all the interviews when he signed he said he was fully fit. Take a month maybe to get up to speed, but to not even get a kick over 5 months is bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 22 May, 2013 Share Posted 22 May, 2013 Anyone who saw Forren play for the Under 21's will see why he has been kept well away from the first team. Fit or not, he needs to work significantly on his conditioning and strength. He is so slow it looks like he is running in wellies. However he has very good anticipation and is great on the ball. The club must feel they can work on his physical state to a point where he can compete in the Premier League and the team will benefit from his other skills with the ball etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How, at the age of 25, does he need to work on his conditioning and strength to get a game for us? If you were talking about Jack Stephens then fair enough. But are you really saying that with nearly 150 appearances for Molde and over 20 for his country at various age levels (including 7 full caps) we knew exactly what we were getting and had a plan to beef him up for a few months before playing him? And I saw him at the U21 game against Liverpool and don't agree he was great on the ball; he was comfortable, no more than that. Defensively I saw nothing to suggest that it was just fitness that was holding him back from being a step up from all of our CB options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 23 May, 2013 Share Posted 23 May, 2013 The thing about this "released" list is that it won't contain anyone who still has a contract. If they're playing below the Prem and are out on loan but have got at least a year left with us, they won't be going anywhere apart from out on loan again, as they're all on contracts which pay more than any team at the level they're playing can afford. So if Hammond's contract isn't up, unless someone wants to pay his wages on loan, or offer him a new, longer, or over the term of the contract more valuable deal, he'll just train with the U21s and take his money. There's a tipping point of course, where 1 year on Prem money is less preferable to 4 more years at Championship level plus the job security... so we might see a few "final yearers" moving on, but the rapid promotion and Prem bonuses have really left us with a bit of a legacy of reserves. We've moved on a bit from when we were mutually cancelling Wootton's contract to get him an extra 12 months as a pro at Yeovil, haven't we ? And so have Yeovil for that matter.

Because either way they won't be "released", that's what happens when your contract runs out and we don't offer a new one. Anyway Andre's list is off the mark. Richardson and Butterfield are out of contract and probably won't be offered new ones,so they can't be sold and won't be retained. In fact anyone who is out of contract will be "released" because that's the way we do things at SFC. Reeves is out of contract and will no doubt be allowed to just leave as will Hoskins. If you're not good enough for the PL and don't have a contract beyond 30th June 13 then you won't get a new one unless there are some exceptional circumstances.

Over land and sea Posted 30 May, 2013 Share Posted 30 May, 2013 I suspect the retained list could be imminent (Saturday morning if previous years are anything to go by). The first team squad on the OS has been updated today to delete all the photos. The one player deleted today was Frazer Richardson. Most of the players that have been out on loan are also missing but interestingly Dean Hammond was added back in a few days ago. Tadanari Lee has been there for the whole period of his loan. None of the other players who have been out of loan have been added back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaplow has disappeared though which is strange if he really did have a contract extension until 2014, don't know about De Ridder but he's crap anyway.

VectisSaint Posted 30 May, 2013 Share Posted 30 May, 2013 The retained list is very much a thing of the past. Strange then that a Retained List has been published by many teams in the last 2 or 3 weeks, just try Googling Retained List and you will see that it is certainly not a "thing of the past". Sofar Sunderland are the only PL team to publish, although Cardiff & Hull have done son. I believe it is a required document for all English professional football clubs to let other clubs know who is and who is not available for transfer. Just because a player has an on-going contract doesn't mean he cannot be released (i.e. not put on th retained list), just means the club may have to pay up his remaining contract. I would imagine if Deano still has a year or more on his contract that he will be retained, but other clubs will be made aware that he is available for transfer, if not we will loan him out, can't really see him being used next season. Lee has too long to just be released, will possibly be subject of transfer or further loan, but would not surprise me if MP does not want an opportunity to run the rule over him again now that he has managed to play a few games following his recovery from injury. He should at least be ready for a good pre-season this year assuming he doesn't have any holiday mishaps again. Still if St Garrett says he is crap, I guess that MP will take that on board and pack him off in a taxi to Heathrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should always be signing players who are better than our best players, and dropping the ones who aren't as good. Why bring in people who can only do what you can already do ? If they don't bring something better, just stick to the players you already have who know each others' game. Bring in 5 who you expect to be starters and you might get 3 or 4 new starters. Bring in 2 starters and 3 squad players and you'll get, at best, 2 new starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
