GK: looks ok with Astralaga, Kochen and also Yaakobishvilli
RB: Fort is too good for this level but we'll see what Flick's plans are for him. Could see him moving between first and B team again but most important for him is to play regularly. Trilli and Anaya are injury prone so might consider a signing here. Or give a chance to Landry Farre.
CB: Faye will either be with first team or sold. Olmedo is ok but I don't really rate Dominguez. Cantero played full season in Segunda RFEF so maybe can make a step up. Andres Cuenca and/or Eman Kospo might be promoted. So we have depth but question is if enough quality. Don't see us spending 4m on Mbacke now that we won't be promoted. Keeping Natali and/or signing Mokio would be ideal but neither will happen.
LB: Gerard Martin is ready for a move to Segunda or even lower table La Liga team so will probably be sold especially if Marquez is gone. Edu Sanchez was supposed to be higher rated than Martin but never got a chance this year so maybe he'll prove himself next year. Albert Navaro could be promoted, Takahashi's contract is up and don't know what will happen with him.
DM: Casado will either be with the first team or loaned, don't see him playing on this level again. On paper we would be ok with Bernal and Prim, Xavi Espart might be getting minutes too but still expect to sign someone a bit older.
CM: it looks ok to me with Unai Hernandez, Garrido (if he can stay fit), Guille (we still have to renew him!!!), Darvich and Junyent. Will probably get someone more experienced here as well. I like Moha but probably time to bring someone with a bit more upside.
RW: Glaring hole. Don't think Pocho is good enough and Bah didn't play much on loan at a lower level. Not sure any of the younger kids is ready to step up either so pretty much need two new players here. Ibrahim Diarra is supposed to sign in January and I'm excited about him but not sure if he'll join BA straight or have 6 months to adapt in Juvenil A first.
ST: Guiu is seemingly gone, don't know if we'll buy Pau Victor but he's definitely too good for this level. Percan is still here but out for first few months of next season. I expect us to look for a new Pau Victor/Jutgla on cheap or loan. BTW, Oscar Gistau's contract is also expiring in a week according to TM. Hope we won't lose him too.
LW: Can't seriously count on Alarcon to stay healthy. Dani Rodriguez is leaving. Arnau Pradas is (or at least was) quite highly rated but I've not watched him that much so don't know how he developed. He's 18 now and should get minutes if he's good enough. Maybe can play Guille as LW but I'd say we need at least one if not two new players here.
coach: I think Rafa will move on for a new challenge. Maybe Belletti who already knows the players could take over.
In general would expect an even younger team with potentially a new coach so expectations should be lower. Would like Deco to find more players like Faye and Pau Victor to help us out and potentially also have first team future. It's a shame he struck out on another potential big talent like Mokio. But he'll surely find someone else. I believe he has good eye for talents but just can't close most deals with our financial limitations. Well, let's hope that's the main reason and things will improve in future. It's also possible he's not very good at negotiations.
tl; dr I think we are well covered in goal, defense and CM (could still look to add experience here and at FB position though), I would expect a DM if Casado is promoted but most changes will be upfront where we need 3-4 wingers and a striker.
