Summer clearout - who?

In the wake of the Sunderland game I've read in a lot of posts from people who want the team to show more fight and commitment, and some even calling for some large-scale personnel changes in the summer.

But which players appear to lack the stomach for a fight? After all, from the evidence I've seen it's really only Silva and Zabaleta who don't occasionally put in a lacklustre performance... And realistically how large a turnover of players can a squad absorb?

Personally, I'm not in favour of a major clearout, or even a minor one, although we clearly need one or two new players. But that's it.

But I'm interested to know who people mean when they talk about getting rid of people who don't appear to fight enough? My guess is they mostly mean Dzeko and Nasri, but I've even seen Hart's name thrown around recently... So who are these players who don't care enough?

(edit: and I only mean players - no MP arguments, please)

Fucking hell not another thread on the same subject !!!
 
Clichy.
Milner.
Dzeko.
Aguero ( Breaks my heart to say it but he just can't play a full season)
Richards.
Nasri.

Total rethink needed...
 
Sinclair

Richards

Clichy or Kolarov but Clichy for me.

Garcia

Dzeko, would like him to stay but at the same time I think we need to get another attacking midfielder for when Silva is out and that means a striker has to leave.

Lescott

Rodwell on loan

Boyata
 
Hart- overrated
Richards- too many injuries
Rodwell- see Richards
Dzeko- too expensive for third striker, too inconsistent
Nasri- too inconsistent for the obscene wages he's paid

I don't think we'll win much until we cut the fat.

I would give Hart another season to prove himself but if he shows no sign of consistency like the past two seasons then he is out for me.

If Casillas fancies a move to City in the summer thought then we should consider it.
