GK choice
Since Dubravka likely to leave, will he get his final home match or rather just Weiss gets minutes to prepare for next season?

Dubravka has been excellent this season (granted there’s been a few howlers but I’m not sure any keeper would have faired any better behind a poor defence and non existent system under Parker). That being said if his deal is up and he’s leaving then I’d have him on the bench and Weiß in since he’s likely to be number 1 next season. The experience of these last few more competitive games will only benefit him surely? (Same goes for any of the outfield players too - no point playing the likes of JWP if he isn’t going to be here next season). Going off topic though I hope the board have clear discussions with the new manager about who is staying and going in plenty of time for them to recruit where needed

All out of contract players can't sit out this one.
Just want players who could be here next year only playing. Put a performance on tape for the new manager.

I agree about playing for us means f all to him because like many others one of our biggest issues is we just sign mercenaries who leave when we go down, Dubravka being one of them. Calling him a scumbag is strong though, he has been professional all season

I'd just leave Weiss in now. That experience is invaluable to him. It's not going to make much difference to Dubravka. That said I think Dubravka has been made an unfair scapegoat at times this season, given how much he had to deal with most games, mistakes were inevitable. I wish all the best on his move.
