In the space of five days, we could have picked up six more points to accompany our existing ten. Possible or probable who knows, but I am already getting concerned that Mason, Veronica, Earnshaw and of course Kim are not getting a look in. Best squad ever assembled at city, but leaves a few problems. Anyway, let's go for the six points, after all it is a relatively easier start to the season compared to some!
I know I'm repeating myself but Earnie needs to go out on loan somewhere. He would do a good job for a Div. 1 club. He will not get a look in with us. You have not included Gestede but we don't know what his fitness position is. Good deputy for HH if fit. The others mentioned will all get their chance due to injuries, suspensions and loss of form. Pity we got knocked out of the Capiita Cup as that would have given everyone some game time. I can't remember us having such a strong bunch of strikers - provided the bu££ers start scoring and not leaving it to the midfielders!!!
Where is the Injury prone Rudy.. Now that Maynard is out for a few weeks we will need him if Helguson runs out of puff, All will get their chances.
If MM is happy to go with Maynard as the lone striker, we may see Eti in that role if Maynard is out for a while. I hope the injury isn't as bad as feared for him as much as us. If MM plays 442, which we now seem to have the players to set up in that formation, we may see HH with Eti or Mason. Losing Maynard will be a blow, but not as big a blow as it would have been if he'd been with us in previous seasons. Fingers crossed there is some good news for him.
