Also I’m less worried about cohesion if they all join in the next week and have a full pre season to learn the system
It’s just realistic for the prem imo, the side is going to be very different. The club want to strengthen the spine. Thats a GK, CB, 2 CMs, ST. Then bring in the fact we need new wingers. The team is gonna look a lot different.
Mayenda, Cirkin, Hume, Mayenda, Ballard are the only ones I can see likely starting. Others will drop to the bench. this is obviously excluding any potential leaps in quality by Rigg and more that could happen during pre season
I think the only ones absolutely certain to start are Hume Ballard Le Fee Mayenda i just cant predict who or what positions we wont strengthen . I would have included patterson a week ago!
Garcia will be the most unproven and could be the best out the lot if we manage it. Just have a strange feeling. Don’t think Madrid will let him go lightly though
I can't wait for us to start the season with a cb partnership pairing of Singo and O'nien. I think it might short circuit some people entirely
I can see Alese starting over Ballard at first, Alese and Singo is a frightening prospect for any opponent. Ballard to come in when alese needs a rest
