'The team requires a complete overhaul'

Your Views
[BBC]

We asked you which of St Johnstone's out-of-contract players you're keen to keep at McDiarmid Park beyond the summer.

Here are some of your views:

Anon: I think we are the point now where we need to stop being so nice to players. If you’ve not performed, you don’t get a contract - simple as that. Way too many passengers the last few seasons. I’d much rather see us take a chance on someone from the lower leagues (Adama Sidibeh a good example) rather than keeping the same deadwood.

Gus: There will clearly be a massive outflux with the biggest earners all departing. Of the players mentioned, I expect only Liam Gordon to be offered terms. Next season we shall be relying on our younger players no matter in which division we find ourselves.

Russell: Drey Wright, Dan Philips, Ryan McGowan - punt them extra money to keep them. I believe they give us far better return than hanging on to players that are not of Premiership standard, continuing to pay their wages.

Willie: The team requires a complete overhaul, we have been a Championship team for the last three seasons. Not good enough - goalkeeper aside - in every department. This can’t be fixed in one season. We used to be very good at picking up impact players, not any more. The attacking third has been none existent and watching Saints is painful.
