I think although Big Dave wants to keep the same squad, the reality is we probably wont, Because of the release clauses, its not something we can do anything about (if they are met in time)
I think McClean, Rondon, Chadli and probably Dawson will go (still a few weeks til the window closes, i think still some posturing going on regarding him) and we will sign four players to replace them as they each go.
I was told Hegazi wanted out and he has this £10m release clause, however personally i dont see anybody paying anywhere near that, i wouldnt be happy if we were buying him for that price. I think he is ok but he was part of a relegated defence last year in his only year in the premier league and although ok at the world cup, he didnt really pull up any trees to make anybody take notice (Egypt didnt in general to be fair). At that point if nobody pays £10m we can keep him if we want which with the loss of Evans, GMac, probably Dawson i think we will.
I think youngster wise Field and Leko have already tasted first team in the premier league so expect them to be involved and with our lack of centre halves Fitzwater seems to be in the frame so thats 3 spaces filled and maybe a Harper, Edwards or Wilson will take the other.
