Completely agree. I said similar when Redknapp left QPR. It didn't matter who they got in they're absolutely awful apart from Austin, where as if we got someone halfway competent we'd probably be Ok as our squad, although not top quality should be plenty good enough for 12-8th and anything approaching that sort of form should see us safe.You can't polish a turd and QPR and Leicester are absolute turds squad wise.I don't think Sunderlands squad is all that terrible. Defoe and Fletcher are limited but both can score goals, Wickham is a decent target man, Larsson is a good free kick taker, O'Shea and Brown are better than they looked at the weekend and Pantilimon is a decent keeper. It's the midfield that's dire, with Johnson out indefinitely they've got no creativity (far less than us even though it's been our weakness as well) and they don't even have players that can offer more if used better, Cattermole is their best option, which is pretty damning.
