We got Ned with Furlong in reserve at RB, Traore and Yun in reserve at LB. The big current shortage is at the heart of the defense. We only have 1 decent CB in Ned and then only if he''s not needed on the right, and Hill ( too slow) and Caulker, not sharp enough.
Time for a bump GK Green Lumley RB Perch Furlong CB Ned Hill LB Yun Robinson Traore Konchesky Kpekawa Midfield Henry Faulin Luongo Gladwin Sutherland Doughty Sandro Fer Diakite Chery Forwards Polter Austin Phillips Hoilett Grego -Cox Emanuel-Thomas Mackie Manning Blackwood Petrasso We do seem rather overloaded in midfield and up front but desperately short in key positions at the back, does Konchesky play on the right or left?
Sutherland, Manning, Petrasso and Blackwood should all be removed from that list. They are EDS players, and none will get an appearance. I would also put Hoilett, Phillips, and arguably JET in the midfielders section. We are desperately short of another striker, as well as the obvious defensive shortages.
Add Hall & Gobern to the mix. Whilst the squad has had a complete overhaul it doesn't look like a squad that could go up & hold it's own in the Premiership rather has the look/feel of a team that will settle for mid-top half of the Championship (hope I'm wrong & CR produces wonders).
