Surely it's now clear after that abysmal performance certain players need shifting fast.
Pretty much most fans are in agreement about the likes of Ferdinand moving on but others have been subject to many a debate but for me these players must be sold or released.
Jamie Mackie.
Most debated guy on here most probably but if I was a manager he would get the chop in an instant. We all know his work rate is immense & for that I admire him massively. Great attitude & in his favour the kind of character you do need in a dogfight like ours BUT his lack of ability is frightening, his vision, runs, shooting & dribbling are all so poor it's amazing he's playing in the top flight. I would use him as an impact sub at best but if offered £3m as rumoured I'd say snap their hands off.
Ale Faurlin;
Great guy & been superb for us prior to his injury but whether its due to that or just that he can't cut it in the Premier League I'm not sure but he's just not up to the task. Could probably count on one hand the amount of good games he's had in 2 years. Definitely has class or had it maybe but I feel he's very over rated & given the opportunity I'd sell.
Park Ji Sung;
Another workhorse & actually doesn't get the credit for a lot of the dog work he actually does really well but is to in effective in games & hasn't come anywhere near the form he showed at Manchester United. Fergie knew when to get rid & for his wages alone which must be extortionate I'd get rid.
Jay Bothroyd;
Hasn't done anything for me from the day he arrived. Immobile, can't jump, for a big guy doesn't bully defences in the slightest, can be seen as lazy at times & although he'll always be remembered for the great game he had against Man City last season & WBA this he hasn't done nearly enough to merit a place when he has been called upon.
Hogan Ephraim;
I like this kid & have been surprised he hasn't been given a single run out for us this season considering we've been so poor but at the same time I don't feel he has the minerals to produce at the top level. Got sent on loan to Leeds & Charlton & didn't exactly pull up trees & was ultimately returned to us. Had long enough to break through & it just hasn't happened for him. Sell.
Rob Green;
Again I like Greeno but is an absolute drain on resources & is only minutes away from another howler. Not totally at fault yesterday but could of done a lot better imo. I'd be happy with Cesar as number 1 & Cerny & Murphy as back up. Chelsea have Turnbull FFS you don't need 2 keepers on over £50,000 per week each. Sell
Other players I'd try & shift for a variety if reasons would be;
Rob Hulse
Jose Bosingwa
Djibril Cisse (perm)
Players I would keep who have not been getting a real look in would be;
Esteban Granero
Samba Diakite
Andrew Johnson
Nedum Onouha
Junior Hoilett
DJ Campbell
Armand Traore
All for various differing reasons but I feel those above still have a lot to offer.
I know no more about football than you this is simply MY reasons on who I'd keep & sell based in what I've seen since they've joined us there is a hell of a lot of wages combined with that lot probably approximately £300,000 per week more than enough to bring in 5-6 players on £40-50k per week of better quality.
Before anyone says yea but who's gonna buy them I understand that but am simply outlining the players I feel NEED to go not will go for whatever reason.
Anyone have anything to add to this or have I been to harsh on certain players?
