I think it will all depend on what players JD would like to bring in. If he has targets who are arguably better than the current players in that position maybe some may be sacrificed. I think this is the situation with Benji. Hutch IMO hasn't had his best season and maybe the step-up to the Championship may be too much for him. Belcher has failed to make an impact in the first team. There's no doubting his potential but will he get a look in next year?
That's just my opinion which am sure others will have their own thoughts on. The backs and utility forward needs some attention and hopefully we can get some quality in. On paper I would say our squad, as it looks presently, is arguably stronger than that of last time in the Champ.
