Big Clearout needed

[where'stheslope]

Can't believe that in a season we qualify for Europe, some want massive changes to the squad?
To many changes and the team may not be ready for the qualifying games!
Got to keep as many of our players as we can and those we lose, try and bring in even better if possible!!

How many games have Darren McGregor, Lewis Stevenson, Tom James, David Gray, Sean Mackie, Fraser Murray, Scott Allan, Melker Hallberg, Stevie Mallan, Drey Wright, Stephen McGinn, Ryan Shanley and Jamie Gullan played for us? Maybe 10-15 between them all? I think 8 of them have been away on loan as well so in truth we've not had a squad.

There is a difference between squad and team.

We've seen a fairly successful team, not seen much of a squad.

Suppose it depends on who stays and who goes. Macey McGinn, Cadden,Hanlon, Gogic, Newell, Murphy, Magennis, McKay are defo gonna be here. The rest not so sure. Boyle, Porteous, Doig and Nisbet go then that's a good bit of rebuilding need doing

Those players have over 150 appearences this season for Hibs

150? You sure about that? I think included sub appearances it maybe reaches 100ish.

I'd be interested to know number of starts among those players.

Clear as day we have a decent starting line-up but zero options from bench.

Yes, over 150

Stevenson (28) McGregor (16) Hallberg (35) Gullan (20) Mallan (20) Drey Wright (28) Is already 147. Then you add Allan, Gray, McGinn, Shanley etc.

I can only put it down to people being overly emotional about Saturday.

When was the last St Johnstone had a proper clear out?

Jeez, just shows how much sub appearances skew stats.

Looking at that you'd think Stevenson, Hallberg and Drey Wright were mainstays in the team. They clearly weren't.

Not sure there really is a debate here - half the players I've listed have been away on loan for at least 1/2 the season and the others are pretty much emergency backups now.

They are not emergency back ups, they are back ups, all teams have them, its called a squad albeit a thin one, but we know why that is.

David Gray is surely more of an emergency backup, he's barely been on the pitch even when McGinn could've done with a break.

We barely rotated for cup games either.

McGregor, Gray and Stevenson are edging towards being emergency backups. Gray is already there in my eyes - we've already recruited Cadden.

Could Drey Wright end up at Killie next season?
