Thanks Eamon. That's a good squad for this league, and still about 10 fewer than were on the books last year. Expect a few more loans out when that opens up again. Bloody Luke Young.
number 10 surely wont be rested for ATs loan period so what do we reckon? Mentioned many times but I do like Billy Sharp as a proven scorer at this level.
Definitely shows we need another FW to add to that list. I'm sure we'll be looking for a short-term loan to take us up to next window.
Luke Young (Part of Care in the Community programme, H & F council) LOVE IT But surely Diakite is another (Part of Care in the Community programme, H & F council)
But any team looking at our forwards will be scared. Sadly, Zamora isn't really living up to his name at the moment. His quality has actually decreased while he's been with us. Hopefully he'll get a goal soon and move on from there.
I genuinely think that this squad would have had a much better chance of staying in the PL last year. Much stronger at the back, and far better in midfield. Chuck in Remy and we'd have been laughing! Alas!
I think it will be good with 4-4-2 as well as well as 4-2-3-1 Hoilett and M Philips on the wings, pick of CM, doesn't look too bad.
