How many goals did they contribute to?

No idea - and I think goals would be hard to come by with that team - but I think there would be three weaker sides than that one.

Im not saying we don’t need reinforcements - of course we do - but we do still have quality in the ranks.
 
Its certainly not top half, but relegation?

All of those players bar Pandur and Jacob have played regularly in a team that have finished 15th or above - some in a team that finished 7th.

The bottom half of the champ doesn’t have a Rotherham or Wednesday under Munoz to rely on. The 3 coming up are all strengthening. That team 100% finishes in a scrap

Oh I think it’d be bottom 8 for sure but I’m not sure it goes down.
 
I’d have Giles at LB and Longman at LW. Jacob to the bench.

Obviously it’s all hypothetical as we will have a lot more players by the end of August.

That side is definitely in a scrap, it's not only threadbare, but we're also having to play lads out of position to field an 11.

Its.probably irrelevant though as there will be key positions strengthened by the time the gloves come off.

It's entirely irrelevant, you're bang on with that. Do people genuinely believe we're not going to be adding to this squad imminently?

I think folk will be a lot more reassured when it starts to happen. This depleted at this stage isn't exactly ideal. You still want players to have some sense of cohesion going into the opening day, which gets more difficult the later they arrive.

Oh it is - we’ll def have signings.

I was just more making the point that we still have some very decent players in the squad.

Jones, Coyle, Slater, Seri, Oscar at least all very capable of being part of a decent XI at this level.

To be honest the Rb was imminent 2 weeks ago!!

I srilk think it’ll happen but it needs to start asap

I wonder if the change of manager and the complete squad restructure is putting a bit more doubt in players minds.

It's a bit of a leap of faith to commit to us at the moment, but hopefully that changes once the ball starts rolling.

Yeah but Baz said he was due to sign before the players left for Turkey, then covered himself by saying it could roll into the backend of the week.
Tan on monday said it was imminent, you’d think if it’s that close then Tim or a new manager wouldn’t be an issue

it could also be there isn’t an actual deal close
