Musaba improved towards the end of the season, particularly with his final ball. Gassama is a more subtle threat than Musaba and is more measured, he will be used differently. Both are full of potential and with the right coaching they could be a key part of us moving forward and eventually both could net us a ton of money.
Both Diaby’s can stay for me, both have a part to play in a squad.

Bdiaby isn't fast enough he turns like the QE2 not what we need when we are playing out from.the back Bernard should considered if it's possible ? And we obviously need to buy and wouldn't it be nice for every position picking from our academy a spot on the bench and game time when possible ! Rotate the academy players there's enough spots on the bench and way too many games with the stupid league cup then the facup .

I’ve cleaned up the OP and included players still under contract, players out of contract and players on loan that are going back to their parent clubs.
For starters I would offer contracts to:
Vaulks - 1 year plus extension option
Windass - 1 year plus extension option
Dawson - if we can get Beadle again, then let him go.
Iorfa - 2 or 3 year deal
Bannan - 2 year deal
Palmer - 2 year deal
Bernard - 3 year deal
I would try to make permanent or loan moves for:
Beadle
Ugbo
Poveda
I would also try to offload:
Wilks
Paterson
James
Smith

Whatever our squad is going to be, I'd really hope to see a coaching focus on ball control and distribution.
All season it has been an issue. The ball hitting random parts of the players body and simply pinging off to the opposition.
It costs us possession and control of the game to continually forfeit the ball unnecessarily.
Diaby (Bambo) scares the crap out of me. If he were actually really good Preston wouldn't have sold him. He might be okay to see a game out but I certainly wouldn't start him for the first 60 mins.
Momo I haven't really seen enough of as he's made of balsa.
He's shown glimpses but also gone missing.
Rohl seems to have chosen Vaulks over Byers too so I'd imagine he'll be retained for now.
Bernard, Palmer deserve another contract and Windarse who only shows up for big games gets a contract just for that exact reason!
I think as much as we'd like to see an exodus of players and clean house, it's not really feasible for a club in our position and will likely take a few transfer windows of savvy signings and loan marketing before the club can build an identity again.

The sackings are getting ridiculous under the high expectations to succeed immediately.
Sunderland are a prime example of an itchy trigger finger.

Vaulks player of the year SCO choice I think it's worthy he's put a right shift in since xisco left.
I would also offer him and byers contracts but for some reason byers doesn't fit DRs plans I still don't get why though ? Maybe he finds it hard pissing around with the ball in our half of the pitch ?
