surely we have enough strength in depth to not have are mid-season slump this year??

i know we are a left sided player or two short but that seems to be getting looked at (we hope)

so what do you reakon we have enough quality in depth? or still miles away and we will probably have the usual 10/12 game winless run??
 
Just had a look at our fixtures, and we havnt got a stinking run this year like last. OK injuries played a part, but we did have a hard run as well.

H Chelsea
A Stoke
H Spurs
A Everton
A Arsenal
H Liverpool
A Man City

not so hard ones but injuries and confidence knocked us.

H WBA
A Brum

We havnt got anything like that run this year, but a few injuries and you just never know, but i do believe it will be a more steady season, and not a slump.
 
Oh we will have a little slump somewhere along the way.

Hopefully not a drastic one this time though.

Whilst not recruiting the wow players, Bruce has added strength to the squad,

i havent really looked at the fixtures which month is the hardest for us??
 
Honestly. i wouldnt say any month is really hard, ok, all games will be difficult, but its not like we play the big boys all in a row at any time.

December is probably the one that jumps out but even then, 6 games, 3 big games 3 not so big ones.

A Wolves
H Blackburn
A Spurs
A QPR
H Everton
H Man City
