Hart - Stay
Willy - Stay if he is happy to
? - Need a new Wright/Taylor
Sagna - Stay
Zab - Leave. Unfortunately I think his times up
Kompany - Stay
Otamendi - Leave. Easy to say oh we have spent so much money on him he deserves another year. No, he isn't good enough, diving in too often is not acceptable. We tried the one more year rule with Mangala and that didnt work. We need to accept he isn't good enough and move on.
Mangala - Leave
Demichelis - Gone
Clichy - Stay
Kolarov - Go
Yaya - Go
Delph - Stay
Dinho - Stay
Fernando - Stay. I'd have said get rid in January but hes proved he has some use, albeit limited.
Navas - Leave. I can't take much more of the frustration
Silva - Stay
KDB - Stay
Sterling - Stay
Nasri - Leave
Sergio - Stay
Kelechi - Stay
Bony - I'll drive him myself
Leaving under Bernabia's regime:
Zab
Otamendi
Mangala
Demichelis
Kolarov
Yaya
Navas
Nasri
Bony

Nasri stays, he's good enough and looks like he'll work hard enough. we'll defo get 5 or 6 players this summer.

Good centre backs don't grow on trees Otamendi wins far more tackles than he loses,Mangala has great strength and pace don't want to lose him either
Don't think Nasri will be able to get up to speed for Pep,Fernando for all his efforts , other top euro sides have better players there

Do you think he may try one of the Ferds at centre back?

No,Ferd1 not strong enough to get away with it for long
Ferd2 couldn't play there either, not clever enough

Would you re-sign Savi?.Thought he was brilliant last night.

I doubt he would come, but I'd say that's more proof of not judging young players, particularly defenders, too early.

I hope not, I would find it sickening if the pundits who originally drove him out of the PL (Lawrenson, Hanson, Lineker) suddenly started singing his praises.

Savic is a great example. If you watched him at the time he was quick and a great tackler but inexperienced. We have been terrible in developing young players.
Mangala and Otamendi are both good defenders. The whole defence lacked composure last year. You have to wonder if the problem was the individuals or the system. The only one of our defenders Ii really think isn't up to it is Kolarov.
