Thats 19 (20) players which gives plenty of room for more signings/ loans.

At a minimum we will need a LB, Striker, at least 2 or 3 players across the middle.
Might be worth keeping Ayala as a back up CB but with Martin, Whittaker and Ryan Bennett able to cover multiple positions we don't need as much cover.

The rest we sell/loan out.
