At one time or another more than a dozen players have been described as en route elsewhere on Williamsair. Vieira has gone and Given, Rocky, Sweep, Bridge, Bellamy and Adebayor have surely got their reservations booked. Other returnees like Weiss and Onuoha would seem to be in transit only and there are strong rumours about Milner & Balotelli wanting a ticket elsewhere. Bob still doesn't seem so sure about Tevez either and there are even rumours about Dzeko. Are odds being quoted does anyone know?

If only half of these took off we'd be in serious trouble.
 
Why would we be in trouble most of that lot don't didn't get a single game last year.

If we got rid of all the top part of your statement we would make the FFP no problem lol

absolutely not - serious stuff
 
The players who were out on loan last season can go again, or be sold providing we get 2-3 in.

Players like Dzeko, Balotelli were unavailable for much of last season, but inevitably some will get injured again.

I don't think we need to worry about numbers in June, but we need to get 2 quality players in. If we lack numbers, that can be sorted in Aug/Jan

This problem is looming next week. All our players are contractually entitled to be involved in pre-season training and tours. In my original list I forgot to include Jo (and Caicedo) but Tevez & Zabba will be on their hols after the Copa America and consequently missing from the start of pre season & the early part of the tour. It also looks like MJ and several U21s such as Boyata are set to be loaned out next season (along with number 3 goalkeeper Gonzales.) The result of all this is that when it's time to report back on July 6th there will less than a complete team available who are likely to feature in the 25 man squads. The continuing presence of so many players in the departure lounge combined with a lack of new blood does not augur well for team gelling.
 
1st day back at training will be a shocker, sure Bob will be over the moon to be confronted by all our rejects.

I suppose the initial couple of weeks is mainly fitness work but Bob will want them out asap.
