I still think the problem is not with who we brought in but the extra money needed to replace others that are still here.  There are gaping holes in our squad.


Well thats the real problem obviously. you sell a player for 32m so you skimp on his replacement because you need to replace someone like delpth who would cost far more than what his release clause was. Likewise Cleverly.In midfield especially we bought players who may be premiership quality in 12 months time instead of currently. If we'd actually spent big money on experienced quality players to replace them 3 instead of throwing it too thinly around other areas we wouldn't be bottom thats for sure
