My main worries are injuries, lack of depth, goals, and the AFCON. Our first XI is pretty decent, we're a couple short but it isn't bad at all. I'm not sure about injuries mind, we'll have to wait and see but the likes of Tetteh and Traore, I'm still dodgy about. The lack of depth is the issue, we've got numbers but no real quality there. If a centre half gets injured, we're a bit stuck (assuming Greaves is gone or playing LB), if Seri's injured we don't have anyone to do close to what he does and I think there are a few more positions where the back up is a real drop off. It's not mentioned much but the AFCON is going to be crippling for us in Jan. We'll lose Tetteh, Traore and Seri (providing they aren't injured) and that's a lot of quality to lose.
Vinagre is in too (as if we didn't know), haven't seen the HDM article on Twitter https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/hull-city-second-summer-signing-8573296
The problem is unless you have parachute payments, it’s very hard to have quality depth at this level. You have to rely on academy lads and experienced journeyman types who are happy to train and wait their chance.
