As much as i want to get rid of most of the squad i do agree about needing evolution over revolution.
Especially with moving to the new ground - too many clubs have struggled for form after moving to a new stadium - so if a bit more continuity can help us then so be it.
It's a huge summer for us, and i hope we're well into the planning phase.
If ever we needed an ideal transfer window it's now. Two or three in for the start of preseason, then maybe a couple drip fed in before the season starts followed by a couple at the closing of the window.

NEW WINGER Gueye NEW MIDFIELDER Ndiaye
Doucoure
NEW STRIKER
Bench: NEW GK, NEW CB, McNeill, Garner, EVAN FERGUSON (LOAN), ALCARAZ, Armstrong, NEW FB, ON LOAN WINGER
Honestly think in a functioning team, Mykolenko is more than good enough for the next couple of years.
I quite like Garner, but to push on there needs to be another starter (if Garner progresses the new lad can replace Gueye eventually).
This is all dependent on Branthwaite staying. If he goes, we can push the boat out!
Think Tarkowski needs replacing at some point, but given Moyes comments on evolution, I think he'll keep him in next season.
O'Brien is outperforming most right-backs in the league, if it ain't broke etc
I know half of you hate Doucoure, but Moyes plays him constantly, and even when he hasn't played, he's praised him in that week's press conferences, so I'm certain he's staying (NB. I'd LOVE Alcaraz to start in his place, very much enjoy how he plays football).
Hope Moyes uses four loans and fills squad out with them.
With three quality starters in (and the squad fleshed out) we're easy top half.
