Please release me let me go...

As mentioned briefly on the itk thread. Thought it deserved it's own thread. Somewhere for folks to heap praise or vent their spleen on four departing hammers. Anyone you'd keep?

Assume Aguerd will return as a left sided centre back in a 3 and it’s been time up for Cresswell for a while 
If Aguerd is staying in Spain hopefully a swap can be found
Reckon Cresswell could do a job at Championship level for a couple of years. Maybe back to Ipswich?

Excluding the obvious ones that won’t be coming i reckon Tyrick Mitchell & Kyle Walker-Peters would be worth a punt.

I dont think its a good thing to hang on to older players but i thought cresswell might get another year, they must be confident of a replacement coming in. Very good signing when he first joined us. And coufal, fabbers always gave 100%. Ings didnt do enough in 3 years but i'll be nice because of the cup win.

Cresswell has been a trooper. Really deserves a good send off. Had his own song briefly didn’t he?

I really like Coufal as well. Great no nonsense attitude. It’s just a shame these players get older and lose a bit. 
 
 
Cresswell has 3 England caps.

We might be able to re-sign a couple of them if they are still free agents after the window closes.

Even at 40 I reckon Fabianski could do one more season as second keeper. Don’t think Fotheringham is more than a third keeper so will have to find another. Plus ideally get Kelleher from Liverpool & move Areola on

Dont blame Ings but he was never a fit for us
Cresswell could probably have gone a season or two back but has been a good buy
Coufal has dropped off but also gave all he had

'the point' is he's the biggest problem at the club if he's going to be at fault every week, he can't fucking defend yet the midget decided to pay him ridiculous wages for the next six+ years. another 'point' is I'd rather keep a geriatric goalkeeper at the club rather than our record defender signing. I don't give a shit about the four leaving other than wanting antonio added to the list

Nah, thanks for your services, time to move on. COYI
how much do you think someone would pay? £10-£15m? whatever it is, get rid
The thread is about departing players. Whetuyou want Kilman out or not isn't the point.

Cresswell has been a great servant, Coufal has also been a decent player for us particularly in his first couple of seasons.

Reckon Fab and Cress would do a good job coaching the youngsters.
