Hopefully we get McGregor in and sell Fods for about 2m.
Keepers for next season.
McGregor Alnwick McCorrie Kelly plus money from Fod to strengthen other areas.

Defence we need
rightback (Promising youngster) as cover and 3 Centrehalfs promote Wilson and Beerman leaving only Tav Wilson Wallace John Beerman as would get rid of Hodson Alves Cardoso.

Midfield would be . Rossiter Docherty McCorrie Jack Arfield and would add 2 . Midfield enforcer and playmaker. Getting rid of Haliday Holt Dorrans.

Attacking Midfield. Candias Windass and promote Middleton. Would get rid of MOH Dodoo Forrester Pena. So think we would need 3 attacking midfielders all first squad picks.

Strikers. Give Hardie another contract and Morelos. Miller and Herrera to go. So think we could use another 3 strikers.

So really in my eyes we could be doing with adding 13 players at least promoting 5 at least while getting rid of at least 12 and the 4 on loan and Miller Bates Niko Wilson those have left or leaving as out of contract.

who Is honestly going to take the guys you’ve mentioned? Most wouldn’t get a game with a Sunday League team.

This is only my opinion but think this is the least we need to do. hope to hear from fellow Bears on their views in moving the first team squad forward.

Candeias is rotten. An average journeyman player who can’t defend. If we want to challenge Celtic we need far better than him

Completely agree with the players you've said to go if we can find teams willing to take them. Would also sell Windass and Morelos if decent offers came in. Personally would sign Murphy and Cummings for the squad and if we could 10-12 other decent quality signings then that would be ideal. Will be interesting to see what the budget is for the summer but there is a lot of good players out of contract we should snap up.

That's the job of Allen to get rid of these player. Think he will have informed players agents to find new clubs for them. Can't see us getting much if any cash in for these players but will free up cash for wages free transfers and loans.
Still a lot of good players available in the summer on free transfers but will take wages for them to sign.

Would also keep Murphy and Cummings but don't think Gerrard will want to use about 2m of his budget on them.

Think rangers will give free transfers to some players if there agents can find permanent clubs for them allowing them to get bigger signing on fee.
Some players will go out on loan freeing up wages bit rangers might have a % to pay.

RIP UP PENA CONTRACT ON GROSS MISCONDUCT if possible

Pena out on loan until end of the year! You never know he might turn it around by then lol

Can't imagine we'll sign 10-12 players this summer. I agree we've got a lot of dead weight to get rid of though

MCFEC Would love to see MaCArthur Skrtel as think that is the standard we need then always said Cadden of Motherwell to beef the squad up McBurnie and Souter got to buy best of youngsters as squad players to push into first team

Think we we are more youngsters coming here from England like Rossiter and Dembellend. As we have Gerrard as a lure now. Think we could of had Tyler Roberts on pre contract if we had Gerrard here in January

JohnGreig78, I'd keep Dorrans but play him in the right position.

Agree Dorrans is better in Attacking Midfield but he doesn't seem to have the pace or fitness for playing there the now plus he must be one of our top earners. Hoping Gerrard has some wingers and attacking midfielders in mind that are cheaper hungrier and younger and every bit as good as Dorrans can be

Dorrans needs to be played in attacking midfield or don't bother playing him, it baffles me y they constantly play him as a holding or deep mid!
