We got a big ol' squad now

and it's lovely that Uncle Sam is picking up the tab, but here goes;

37 currently listed as First Team.

Five will leave in the summer [Barden, Duffy, Marcondes, Schlupp & Amass] due to contract expiry.
Springett may not get his Option taken up (but McLean should)
Long and / or Reyes should get moved on [or loaned out].

That leaves 29, with three of the bigger earners off the books and only minimal reduction in strength

Forsyth, Myles and Gibbs could be eligible for loan.
Medic and Forson and Kvistgaarden are candidates - IMO - to sale (also Jurasek-note)

[I'm ignoring the Sarge situation.]

There will be far more turnover in the U21s, as we currently have ten Yoot with Pro contracts who will be stepping up to the Development Squad.

To make way for the newbies we'll probably see departures from the likes of Ansen, Bracking, Bridge, Bullen, Chilvers, Daley, Forbes, Gee, Ofori-Manteaw, Okwumo, Owen and Wilson.

More words than First Teamers. Sorry about dat.
