Sooooo,
Captain stripped of Captaincy,relegated to subs bench and called out in public.
Brightest youth prospect sold.
Two squad players banished to train with kids.
Another supposedly bright youth prospect R/B loaned out.
Out of form players continually picked.
Only sold 2 players out of the 8 that need moving on.
Lost embarrassingly to newly promoted team.
Make of it what you will!

Re the captaincy issue a significant number of people thought Mings wasn’t worthy of a place let alone the captaincy so not a total surprise that Gerrard decided to give it to someone else. Re the brightest youth prospect he wanted £100k a week to re sign and made it fairly clear that if he didn’t get it he was going to hold out and go for next to nothing in 12 months time. The club were not going to be held to ransom and sold him for £20 million that's fantastic business from an economic perspective. Personally I’d have held on to the little sod and made sure he played absolutely no football at all for 12 months but then again I can be a tad vindictive at times?. Re trying to sell players I am sure some will go before the window closes clubs are just waiting for the last minute ‘fire sales’ to happen.
