Players we need to cycle out:
- Stones (love him but too injury prone and doubt that improves now he's 30)
- Ake (love him as well but too injury prone and will be 30 in February.)
- Walker (34 and in a decline)
- Bernardo (love him but playing 7 straight years of 50+ games has left him physically drained)
- Grealish (love the lad but the next evolution of city wing play need Doku, Savio and Bobb as the main pieces)
Maybe:
- Kev (arguably our best player but becoming more injury prone with long term muscular injuries)
- Gundo (age has caught up and his legs are just not there. Might keep him around on a limited role basis for leadership)
- Kova (hard worker and been a productive player but we need youth, energy and legs in the midfield)
