Obviously injuries have been a problem and at no point this season has everyone been fit.But i still think that that's a Championship squad - a top 4 Championship squad it has to be said but a Championship squad none the less.
Don't get me wrong, we do have some good players. Vlaar, Benteke, Bent, Weimann (of which you can probably only start with two).But that starting 11 and squad is not good enough imo. Our current Midfield for example would be a weak one in the Championship, poor defensively and can't create and defensively they are mostly rookies (badly missed an old head like Dunne).
If Vlaar and Dunne were fit, I'd say all we need is a couple of old heads in the middle. However, our "class squad of strikers" (OP's words not mine) have only scored 7 goals in the last 10 league games.
