The current squad, who makes the grade in terms of quality and/or consistency/reliability, who doesn't? New signings included based on your early views on them (though not Westwood or Bowery).Guzan- YesGiven- YesHutton-NoLichaj- NoLowton-YesWarnock-NoBennett- No (He'll hopefully improve but I'm not sure on him defensively or offensively. We'll see).Dunne- No (Too many fitness and injury problems, before you even consider poor form in the last two years).Clark- Yes (just about- needs to deliver a lot more)Baker- YesVlaar- YesKEA- YesDelph- NoBannan- NoHerd- YesAlbrighton- NoIreland- NoN'Zogbia- NoHolman- YesAgbonlahor-YesBent- YesBenteke- YesWeimann- YesFor me we've got enough quality up top in place and solid keepers. The defence needs a bit of experience and the midfield needs that and a lot more quality.
Villa sign Delph, Bennett, or Harewood and they look like they've come from non-league.
My main grip is the crticism of Bannan. He could be a class player for us, we just need to put him in the right position in the right team with the right mentality. Playing him out wide does not suit to his nature, as does playing him deep. I think playing him behind Benteke with two defensive midfielders behind him would bring out the best in him and we would see a very talented footballer emerge. We often see little flickers of brilliance from him, and if he could become consistent there'd be no stopping the lad.
