    He is the most improved player under Hughes

    Never got the Sutton love in.

    Had about 3-4 decent games that’s it

    He runs round like a headless chicken. The irony is that it is probably the reason we are called the bantams, just a team full of ineffective angry little chickens.

    Yes as long as we offer him equal or better terms than he’s on now.

    I get what you say as it's true, although I generally bang the drum for keeping Sutton, but not because I think he's the next Messi or anything but more along the lines of I'm almost certain he's not a big earner wage wise, he gets stuck in and is at a good age if he can somehow be improved, and at this level we are going to need some squad fillers who are capable of doing a job if needed. Obviously if I'm wrong about his wages then ye he's gone.

    We need quality and players that can make a difference.

    Yes, he can run away but his skillet set, quality on the ball is very low.

    What ever MH decides is fine by me. If they all went I would not worry though thats unlikely. What is clear is we need 6-8 proper recruits. From there actions as they left the field during and after the game I'm not expecting to see Vernam, Walker, or Cooke in a City shirt next season ?.

    Because he is under 24 therefore we’re entitled to a development fee, it was confirmed by the club earlier in the week.

    The biggest problem if watt goes is replacing him ,as everything starts through him at moment although he has no pace he has good control and passing can be good .But at moment gilliaed does all the unseen work running and chasing back and gets a lot of stick but he never hides ,he is a team player definitely worth keeping for the squad next year

    It's not relevant and not sure why you're asking but...

    ELLIOT Watt has become Stuart McCall’s latest capture after signing a two-year deal.

    City beat off competition to secure the Wolves starlet for an undisclosed fee as the transfer window officially opens for business today.

    If a player is released he is FREE.
    If he is under 24 and offered a deal he rejects then compensatuon must be paid to make the signing.

    Id keep Sutton, Watt, Vernam and now quite possibly Paudie. Was never a fan of a few but 1 or 2 look different players under Hughes. Think all 4 can have a place in a 20 man squad as long as we bring in some quality. Rather focus on addung than replacing.

    Hendrie and Cooke can go for me. As can the truly awful Robinson and Lavery.

    Me neither but as a squad player he is probably passable.

    Songo'o has grown on me, big heart, something Adams said about him. Last week at Sutton there was a good moment at the end where he held up the ball by the corner flag, went down well with us travelling fans.
