Just glancing at those out of contract at the end of this year, and consider how much bargaining power that gives us:
ASTON VILLA: Wayne Routledge, Stuart Taylor.
BLACKBURN: Tugay, Andre Ooijer.
BOLTON: Ali Al-Habsi.
EVERTON: Andy van der Meyde, Nuno Valente.
FULHAM: Danny Murphy, Pascal Zuberbuhler, TJ Moncur, Moritz Volz.
HULL: Ian Ashbee, Nick Barmby, Dean Windass, Sam Ricketts.
LIVERPOOL: Sami Hyypia.
MAN CITY: Michael Ball, Glauber Berti, Dietmar Hamann, Danny Mills, Daniel Sturridge, Darius Vassell.
MAN UTD: Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville.
MIDDLESBROUGH: Chris Riggott, Ross Turnbull, Brad Jones, Mohamed Shawky.
NEWCASTLE: Michael Owen, Shola Ameobi, Steve Harper, Nicky Butt.
PORTSMOUTH: Sol Campbell, Sean Davis, Kanu, Lauren, Noe Pamarot, Herman Hreidarsson, Richard Hughes, Djimi Traore, Richard Duffy, Linvoy Primus, Jerome Thomas, Jean-Francois Christophe.
STOKE: Amdy Faye, Vincent Pericard, Salif Diao, Lewis Buxton.
SUNDERLAND: Dwight Yorke.
TOTTENHAM: Paul Stalteri.
WEST BROM: Dean Kiely, Carl Hoefkens, Sherjil MacDonald, Shelton Martis.
WEST HAM: Lucas Neill.
WIGAN: Emile Heskey, Kevin Kilbane, Ryan Taylor, Henri Camara, Mike Pollitt.
Apparently that's every player in the prem who are angling towards bosman like status by the summer - one glance at Pompey will show you how much trouble they're in if they don't start signing some cheques, but other than that, who out of all them would make you look twice as prospective future Spurs players?
