I am surprised there has been no progress over the last few weeks especially after securing Duff & Senderos.
At the moment here is a list of the players who will leave in the summer
Riether , Manolev , Hangeland
Davies , Karagounis , Baird , Diarra , Frimpong , Enoh , Emanuelson
Petric
Obviously we have made Hangeland the priority & have options on Enoh , Riether & Manolev
Who else should we be focusing on? For me It's Karagounis, I think now is the right time to move on Baird , Davies , Diarra , Petric
We really need to start sorting this out, very poor from the club that we are in mid March & all them players will be free to go this summer

Yes but how do you know there is no progress, and why is it very poor form from the club? contracts may have been offered, and players are considering their options, we don't know, we will only find out if either they sign or they go.

Petric? i believe he's been very unlucky this season due to how good Ruiz and Berba have been. deserves a chance imo
I'll be surprised if more than three of the players on that list are with us on opening day.
We're living life on the cheap right now, and it's impossible to build a team that way. 15th looks pretty good for us this season, but next season is going to be white knuckle time every weekend.
We need to inject more quality (and youth) into midfield next season so clearing out some wages would be a good thing. Here's what i'd do:
Riether: 100% keep, dont know what it hasnt been sorted yet
Manolev: seems like a decent back up so would probably keep
Hangeland: 100% keep, back to his old self
Davies: as much as i'd like to keep him, theres no point in having someone who may get injured again
Karagounis: definitely deserves one more season, been outstanding for us
Baird: tricky one. useful to have in the squad but is he really good enough? can see him moving on
Diarra: qualilty player but too injury prone. let go
Frimpong: if we can get him one a free I would take him to help bring out age down. Looks to have potential
Enoh: same as Frimpong
Emanuelson: quality player who should be starting for us now. Won't be here after the summer sadly
Petric: Love Petric but would rather see Trotta getting those 10mins at the end of the game instead of an aging Petric

This old chestnut shows up at least twice a week on this board.
Look, Fulham have an option to buy the player, i.e.
Contract conditions (transfer fee/wages) for Sascha have been pre-agreed with Cologne and with the player. But Fulham can say yes or no up until a pre-agreed deadline date. Get the idea?
There is no benefit to Fulham in exercising the option now, but there is the potential risk of Riether picking up a Grygera type injury between now and the end of the season – why should the club run that risk?
One thing to be mentioned is that Jol pointed out that the club would
not exercise the option (although they have the right to do so) if the player was unhappy with the idea of staying with us.
So let's all wait until the season is over ... 049:gif
