The players and agents of those released would have known well before the end of the season they werent getting extensions and would have made it known their players were going to be available. It would have been common knowledge whether we made it public or not.Genuine question.....did we need to announce that our top 4 fullbacks were leaving so soon after the season finished? As they are all officially still under contract under June/July, would it have given us a stronger position in negotiating fees for our targets? With rumours starting to come out that Spurs/Monaco are placing a higher value on Mendy/Walker, it got me thinking we might have shown our hand alittle early?
