This summer we’ll find out what club we are

Good points.

Fry 8m, Hackney 15m, Akpom 20m. 43m + whatever we have in the pot left from last season where we only spent about 7.5m from about 30m incoming.

Would we prefer to have those players, or, have 50m for carrick to invest?

Carrick and invest for me, but I hear what people are saying. Akpom for sure to go others will need good offers

I don’t have a preferred model, but thought it’ll be interesting to see what type of club we will be this summer

He’s not the best centre back at the club as I said from the day we signed Lenihan, Lenihan is. Fry injury record is gettting worse and as a result he can’t be trusted to be our main CB. He will become our first choice sub as he was in the play offs. Of that I’m sure.

Blimey some fans need to face facts about Chuba! He is going to receive loads of offers from bigger clubs (PL & abroad), the club will have no choice but to sell because he won’t be willing to sign a contract that pays him less and offers him second tier football!!

It’s purely a case of getting the best price now, but as someone said above, this summer will be the most valuable he ever is in football (probably, unless he goes on to become a top PL striker which I think is still rather unlikely). He’ll probably be here til August though as it will no doubt be a bidding war.

If we end up with £15M+ that’s a decent outcome, I’m confident the club’s current leadership would reinvest it wisely.

I do think Fry is 50/50. Offers would be listened to for Bola, Crooks, McNair etc also.

Hackney leaving would take silly money, but everyone has their price. I can’t see it this summer though. The club may look at Jones as an example of what can happen if youngsters don’t kick on, I bet we turned down some decent offers for him last summer.

I just can't see Chuba staying. He is almost guaranteed to be offered more cash elsewhere, so is highly unlikely to sign a new contract. Off for circa £15m

Hackney...no chance of us selling unless an insane offer comes, which it won't.

I think we will then sell from a pool of back ups...Bola/Dijksteel/Crooks/Jones...doubt we will look to shift all of them as the rebuild then becomes too big.

Given the funds unspent from last year's sales, I think that gives Carrick a decent pot.
