I'm not sure if all of us have actually realised how many players and staff have left the club over the last 6 months?
IMO with the time gone again, we should only focus on 3 quality permanent signings.
A) Right Back
B) Centre Back
C) Striker
Up to another 3 loans with an option to buy. So young hungry players. (No older guys looking for a 12 month pay cheque)
I don't believe for a minute Bilic will be able to spend more then £20m on new players so hence only 3 permanent purchases.
Remember success never happens over night if to many changes are made.
This must force us to play our younger players as full first team members every week.
If Hegazi - Gibbs -or Phillips leave - direct replacements must be made to replace them.
We are all aware of the leavers, but we have to be honest about their contribution last season. Although the 20 leavers is a drastic number.
1. Myhill - 1 league appearance in 3 years / he won't be missed
2. Holgate - 19 appearances Didn't arrive until the new year, started well but didn't maintain his initial level. OK for a loan player
3. Mears - 7 appearances a few as sub, mainly an emergency cover option / he won't be missed
4. Dawson - 41 games, although he made it obvious he wanted to leave he did what was required / he will be a big miss.
5. Montero - 4 appearances no impact / he won't be missed
6. Murphy - 13 appearances, cover for injuries and suspensions. OK for a loan player
7. Johansen - 7 appearances. unfit when he joined OK for a loan player
9. Mozza - 4 appearances, sadly injuries ruined his season
10. Barry - 25 appearances, better days are behind him
11. Tosin - 19 appearances, mainly cover for the other defenders
12. Rondon - 0 appearances already loaned out.
13. J Rod - 45 appearances and 22 goals - must be replaced with a similar striker
14. Gayle - 39 appearances 23 goals - must be replaced with a similar player
15. Hoolahan - 6 appearances, better days behind him
16. Howkins - 0 appearances
17. Sako - 5 appearances, should never have been signed.
18. Rogers - 1 token game in FAC
19. Barry - 0 appearances.
20. Barnes - 29 appearances, with 9 goals - would be great to get a similar player.
So for me the main misses will be Dawson - JRod & Gayle
Also Darren, Shan, Harrison, Cutler & Scott all leaving all has an effect.
Lots of ifs & buts currently, IMO with so many changes Bilic will be given the freedom of the Black Country if performs miracles.
Can we gain success after so many changes only time will tell.
