West Ham's disappointing season means that they should seek to hold on to just five of their current first team players, according to Danny Murphy.
The ex-England international claims that The Hammers recent chaotic transfer dealings need to be rectified this summer and that can only start with a clear out of the current squad.
Murphy names first team regulars Marko Arnautovic, Mark Noble, Manuel Lanzini and youth team prospects Declan Rice and Josh Cullen as the players that West Ham must fight to keep at the London Stadium next season.
West Ham are still in amongst the battle for survival this season and Murphy claims that he would struggle to make any sort of case for the rest of the squad to remain in East London.
