Can't believe people are questioning Robertson ... I thought he was outstanding at the start of the season, and a decent captain too. I suppose he is an injury doubt, but this seasons injury was unlucky and totally unrelated to any previous problems.
The question this thread should be asking is which of the out of contract players would you keep. It's pointless talking about 'releasing' players cos if they are under contract they don't have to go anywhere.
Can't remember the whole list of those whose contract ends, but there were at least 8 of them, some of them will have already gone. When I saw the list the only one I would be worried aboout losing was Raggett, and I suspect we will struggle to keep him because his form will have Championship clubs after him. And maybe Jacobs, but I think he will still want away.
The rebuild in the summer will be as big as last year, but this time Cowley has created the space in the budget by managing to get rid of the likes of Harrison, Marquis & Downing. If he fails to build the team he wants this summer then his days will be numbered, but I think he deserves the chance because so far he has been held back Jackett's legacy players and consequently tighter budget restraints than he would have wanted.
