The club can?t really afford Martinelli & Trossard coming off the bench next season.

I?m guessing we stick with the far younger Martinelli but these two have been absolute litter for most of that first half.
Trossards a known quantity but Martinelli?s finishing has seriously fallen off a cliff this season.

Our new strikers will sort them all out in the Summer. That's just how it works; anybody can score goals when nobody is actually counting on you to score goals.

If we got a bid for 60+ for Martinelli we should sell. He's basically Aaron Lennon pace merchant with bang average end product.

Was our best player in the 1st 45 minutes (alongside TP5). He's also just coming back from injury. Apparently, new contract will be announced on Friday (according to X)

You can?t give up on 23 year olds. His work rate is superb but he just goes to pieces in the box.

I actually think he's a good finisher, just got a bit excited with that chance at the weekend. 2 brilliant crosses that Trossard should have finished. If we're replacing a winger, he's the one that needs to go.

He?s the wrong side of 30 now, but I think the club will give him a one year deal and take the view that he?ll be a squad player. It?s up to him if he see?s himself as a starter. We?ve all seen the petulance.
