Me too. I imagine the spine will be strengthened but Kodjia, Chester, Jedinak, Taylor etc wluld still feature.
That's most of the spine and I would include Hourihane in that list.

The first two might get by but the second two will not be good enough.

It depends if you take him literally, that next season we will buy an entire new tram.

I hope we don't go down that track.

Could be electric if we do though.

Can't wait to see the next line up. We've recently had too many passengers.

I just hope we can put a decent string of results together and not hit the buffers.

We have far too many conductors and not enough players driving the team forward.

You would also hope that some of the younger players (Bree, Davis, Green) would be ready to step up at that point as well.

Just watching his press conference, the man is delusional.  "One bad half against Cardiff". My arse.
