If we are knocked out on Tuesday is it more likely we'll see players leave I'm thinking more of Kamara maybe even alfie.

We'd need both those players for the European league mate.

Not a chance we are selling Morelos.

Whether we win or lose, (and I reckon that we will win), we need to see players leave and we still need a couple in. There is no point is retaining players that are simply not of the quality we need or that are permanently injured. Hopefully we will see Simpson, Sakala, Roofe and Helander move, (though who would buy the latter pair is beyond me. That would save us quite a bit on wages and hopefully allow us to bring in another striker or attacking midfield playerI could also see Barasic moving but I would prefer to keep Kamara for Europe.

Sakala 9 goals 3 assists ( 30 matches) last season and rarely starts.
A bit short upfront if he and Roofe were to leave and we have Tillman and Lawrence as attacking midfielders and Scotty Arfield.

Copland u r right re sakala, but the manager has said he won’t get game time, so we need to cash in.

I always laugh at statements that say players will leave if we don`t make Champions League . In the case of Glen Kamara if he goes to England he won`t got to a team in the Champions league so he`ll be leaving for either money or just because the league is better. Joe Aribo will never see any kind of European football at Southampton but he went anyway. Most players leaving us can say goodbye to big European nights.

Hello John, what is the problem with Sakala is it discipline, or Gio just doesn't rate him. I always felt he was a threat, albeit his timing was out a lot when to release and keep the ball.

Irvger Sakala see himself as a striker gvb feel his best position is on the wing.

John - just thinking if we have injuries especially with Kent being sidelined at the moment.
I suppose Lawrence or Matondo could play wide left.
In my opinion Sakala is more of a winger than a striker, but a still offers a threat when he plays.

Irvger, simply not the standard Gio wants.
07 Aug 2022 23:17:46
Thank you John, best to move him on then.

Irvger, I agree but would mb wait till January, need a fully fit Morelos imo b4 moving sakala.
