Ex Player Alex Rodriguez Gorrin

Sam Long all the way for me, with Atkinson a close 2nd, done great for his first season as a pro

That squad cap is looking mighty tricky to work around unless we can find buyers for some of the fringe players. 2 left backs, a centre back and 2 wingers needed as a minimum but we only have 2 squad places left. Possibly a midfielder needed too with Forde, Kelly and Lee on their way out currently.

No doubt they’ll be a few players on the list who the club might look to be moved on (permanently or season loans) in the summer Osei, Cooper, Hanson could be that, then there’s going to be interest in Moore Atkinson Brannagan it’s whether we can keep hold them or as many as possible

He won’t let all 3 go

Said elsewhere but KR was very confident when asked the question in an interview last week that the 20 man limit wouldn't be happening. I suspect that he and many other managers have had their say to their owners/CEOs etc.

Fingers crossed we get something sensible like 25 (or no cap at all). 2 for each of the 11 positions with space for some luxury/utility players should be the minimum allowed, otherwise the league is effectively condemning players like Mous to retirement even if he wanted play on because no club will want to spend a squad place on a 35 year old no matter their ability.

Yes. 25 seems a sensible number and the one the PFA have put forward as an alternative.

Winnall scores every 162 minutes.
You would expect Matt Taylor to be up there, but Elliott Lee has done really well since his arrival.
 
Henry has the most assists, which I’d expect, but look at Ruffs! Conversely, a winger such as Shodipo should have more, though his goal return is good.

And some wonder why Championship clubs are reportedly interested :unsure:

Increasingly an evidence and data driven game and Ruff stats make very good reading, especially if they can get him for next to nothing with no ongoing development costs etc...... He's capable of doing the job and reliable whilst not being an exciting prospect, I reckon he would be a steady and dependable professional at Champ level (and possibly mentor younger talent) and all teams needs a good share of those!

Defensively he struggles against a good and tricky winger however.
