Our next six won't be as difficult as this. On paper...
gulp.

We better get some players in quick.

Yep, need a couple in before the next league game at least.

Jedinak is just what we need and I'd still like Vertoute to have a run in this league.

Thought you said Gardner was decent at this level?

Crying out for some mobility. Nothing novel, but Gestede without Amavi's delivery is pointless.

Id agree with this. Playing Gusted is fine if you are then going to play to his strengths. I am not sure we had anyone other than McCormack that could cross the ball.

We were light in midfield i think as effectively we played with 3 up top - none of whom were able or willing to track back.

Hardly a good sign for Veretout that he didnt even make the bench today

I know...still think there's a ball player in there. Looks as though he's toast though...

I would not prioritise right back, although Hutton is not the best. The MF is absolutely where we need to strengthen, followed by a decent CF.

I think that will be because he's rubbish.

He's got to be bad to have Gardner, Westwood and Bacuna ahead of him.

He's better than Gardner, Veretout is slow but Gardner looks like an Action Replay.

I think Veretout has plenty of talent.

Just not enough to get in the squad, let alone to oust the desperately poor Westwood or Gardener from the team.
