The good thing about a big clear out and bring a number of players in is that there's no Euros or World Cup so Pep will have much more time in preseason with the squad.
I could genuinely only make a case for Stones, Silva, KdB, Sterling, Sane and Jesus as starters next season.
means a whole new defence, 2 more midfielders and maybe a forward depending on Sergio.

Still thing the midfield needs 2 more a holder that is a leader and can pass and keep hold of the ball (kroos) and a young hungry goalscoring midfielder that is ready to take over from silva in the next 2 years (ali) push Kdb wide right sane left and Jesus up top!

Big job on for pep even though I don't think he will get rid of as many as I would!!!
time to overhaoul the team.. 8 players over 31 yrs age willy, bravo, Clichy, kolarov, sagna, zabba, yaya, navas, include loanee (bony,nasri,hart, mangala) thats 12 palayers out
thats why we are sh*t on defend. we need 1GK, 1RB, 1LB, 1CB, 1DMC, 1R/LW >> 6 1st team signing and 6 players from our junior team to replace that old-guard.

It will be an absolute purge and seemingly all factored since last summer.
I'm not a financial expert but it's being allowed to unfold this particular way to enable us to literally buy a new core squad in Pep's image.
The sums some of our squad have been earning for a number of years is truly staggering and it could be closer to £50m-a-year in savings that will come off the books this summer.
That's a lot of wiggle room.
Only if we buy well
One thing is for sure it's going to be a busy summer blues. Like pep said himself to think that there will be a mass clear out this summer is not realistic in anyway. Look at the players who are out of contract for me I can't see pep letting both Sagna and zaba leave I feel one will be kept on. A lot of people saying get rid of Nico? Not for me. He maybe isn't a world beater but he's more than capable to be kept on in a squad role. One of bravo or willy will be here next season to battle it out with With the young benfica lad who looks set to arrive plus gunn as third choice. Personally can't wait for it to think of the majority of this current side with 2 class full backs and a commanding cb it's a scary thought. We're currently coming up short but if there is one person who knows what needs to be done it's pep!
