Concerned.Big number of players to integrate, many untried in Premiership. Very difficult season ahead I fear.

Very difficult season ahead I fear.Whereas last summer we seemed to buy exclusively experienced Premier League players, some of whom had racked up hundred of matches.And obviously that meant that last season went just fine. Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea etc seem to manage to integrate players without PL experience just fine.

As we walked away from Wembley stadium in May, and I distinctly remember saying to my mates that I would be happy if every last one of the wastrels who had let us down so badly were got rid of and we started again.That's pretty much what is happening, and I am over the moon about it.Vive la revolution !!
Short term, there will possibly be a few teething problems. Compare the newness of our squad to Bournemouth's who will possibly be more cohesive.
