FLW's Sheffield United fan pundit has given his verdict on which players could be set to leave Bramall Lane this summer.
It could be a big summer of change at Sheffield United after an underwhelming season in the Championship.
After losing their first six games in all competitions, Sheffield United parted company with Ruben Selles and brought Chris Wilder back to the club for a third spell in charge, just 89 days after his controversial summer exit.
Wilder has successfully guided the Blades away from the relegation zone, and there has been talk of a potential late push for the play-offs among the Bramall Lane faithful in recent months, but it looks as though reaching the top six may be a step too far for the South Yorkshire outfit this season.
While Wilder has not given up on achieving promotion this campaign, he has promised that his side will "look completely different next season" after he has a chance to stamp his mark on the squad over the summer, which suggests there could be plenty of incomings and outgoings.

When asked which players he believes are most likely to depart this summer, FLW's Sheffield United fan pundit Jimmy, from the YouTube channel Blades Ramble, revealed that he expects Gus Hamer, Sydie Peck, Femi Seriki and Andre Brooks to attract interest from elsewhere.
It was claimed in January that the Blades were prepared to sell Hamer for as little as £6 million amid interest from Trabzonspor, Sevilla and Cremonese, but while he remained at Bramall Lane on that occasion, the club may look to cash in on him in the summer as he enters the final year of his contract.
Academy products Peck, Seriki and Brooks have all been integral parts of the United team this season, and Seriki and Brooks were both linked with moves away in January, with the former said to have been on the radar of Everton and Club Brugge reportedly keen on the latter.
As the end of the season approaches, Jimmy admitted that there is a strong chance Hamer will leave the club this summer, and he suggested that the Blades could also face a battle to retain Peck, Seriki and Brooks.
"I think we'll try and do a lot of business, both in and out, in the summer," Jimmy told FLW.
"In terms of players we don't actually want to sell that we'd keep in an ideal world, I think we could lose up to four.
"I think, realistically, it will be two, but it could be anything up to four.
"I think Gus Hamer is the most likely to leave with his contract situation the way it is.
"Sydie Peck will garner a lot of interest from the Premier League, so I'm anticipating a lot of interest around him.
"Due to the really strong seasons that they've had, I also there's a chance that Femi Seriki and Andre Brooks will attract interest too.
"Possibly a big summer of further rebuilding to come for Chris Wilder, with those four all being of interest, I'm sure, to clubs higher up the league.
"I would expect maybe two of them to leave, rather than all four.
"Three at an absolute push, but then I'd want that to give us a lot of money in the squad going forward."

It seems Wilder is now on good terms with the Sheffield United owners after his summer departure, but the decision to replace him will no doubt remain a huge source of frustration for the 58-year-old.
Given the lack of quality at the top of the table this season, it is difficult not to feel that the Blades would have been one of the front-runners for automatic promotion had they stuck with Wilder, but the nightmare start under Selles has given them a mountain to climb in their pursuit of a play-off place.
With the top six looking out of reach, United may lose a number of their key players this summer as they prepare for another season in the Championship, but it could all have been so different if not for Selles' disastrous reign.
