Any more coming? Harewood? Mullins? Out: Traore [others? -- Fortune, Thomas, JFH?]

I hate to bring this up because I admire Charlton dearly, but if you are to get relegated, which players will likely go? I assume one would be Bent...who else?
I don't see many of the starters going anywhere -- no matter relegation. Pardew is making a push to not only stay up, but come back up if necessary. He won't want his best leaving. If a Bent is going, it would be Marcus. And take a look at some of the older loanees -- like Kishishev. Those types will be leaving -- to be replaced by better and younger.

Hermann Hreidarsson leaves charlton and signs with portsmouth http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/6689671.stm
I think he'll be sold. Although there is a rumor going around that Arsenal are interested in taking him on a one-season loan to replace Baptiste. This would give Arsenal a cheap replacement since they are hardup for money and allow Charlton to keep him if they can bounce back up to the Premier League.
Zheng had announced just before the end of the season that he would not sign with Charlton if they didn't stay in the Premiership. He wants to play in England but only in the topflight.
Rumors today that West Ham is offering Harewood and Mullins as a part-exchange for D. Bent. I have to say that I prefer the Arsenal loan option; however, if the part-exchange also involves a fair chunk of cash, I'd be tempted by the West Ham offer mainly because I like Mullins and Charlton could use a player like him, a defensive central mid who has some skill as well.
Paddy McCarthy in for £650,000. We got the better part of the deal there - really, he's worth maybe half that. A decent enough player at this level technically but is far too rash to be in a team thats looking to go up, as he gets booked far too often and gives away silly free-kicks. Ended up as third choice once McAuley got settled in, so its nowhere near as much of a coup as signing a captain might sound. Still, he was always one who could have been good if he could channel the get-stuck-in nature and up his concentration a bit, so maybe you can turn him into a good player. For the £100,000 we paid, okay value - for the £650,000 you've paid, not really.
GOOOOOOOOOOOO BENT good job for rejecting West ham u are the man i wish some like you moved to top flight english football tho......... stupid zheng for not signing with charlton....
