Have leeds lost almost all their goalscorers and best centreback
That we have the most work to do? Thought that quite clear.
A pl sized squad. How many players that played for them last season do they still have? You're right though, I missed them. So second most. Much better.
I see that Walter has had a "meltdown" and said we need players in.
Same article... "Hull City boss Tim Walter remains relaxed about the club's transfer activity" 
Hull Live is nearly worse than Lad Bible, soon they will have comments like "and everyone was saying the same thing"

Conveniently missed wasn't it...not really sure anyone had said we don't need to add players either

So basically what everyone here is saying but others are calling a meltdown? Kind of my point...
Yeah sorry I did, I didn't realise there was a wider discussion taking place and it was more just a comment on Hull live.
So we are leading pack with good margin, 13 recruitments needed.
Hull 13
WBA 10
Swansea 9
It's not the number of players we've lost but it's the number of key players. We've probably lost £80m worth of talent depending how you value Morton & Fabio
Also curious to see how that Leeds number was arrived at.
Players we've lost (appearances last season):
Carvalho (20)
Morton (41)
Delap (32)
Zaroury (12)
Ohio (8)
Traore (25)
Christie (28)
Connolly (30)
Docherty (17)
Greaves (43)
Tufan (40)
Allsop (38)
Sharp (13)
= 348 appearances (starts + off the bench) across all competitions
176 appearances from players I'd consider 'core' and that's excluding Allsop who whilst clearly being our first choice, a lot of people were happy to see leave, and ignoring Connolly who was almost our top scorer. Also ignoring Traore who made a significant contribution in the first half of the season.
Players Leeds have lost (appearances last season):
Anthony (38)
Roberts (15)
Ayling (16)
Poveda (10)
Shackleton (15)
Gray (52)
Klaesson (2)
Cresswell (7)
= 155 appearances across all competitions
Also only 8 players departed for Leeds who made appearances last season, so not sure where the number provided above comes from.
So the entire 'experience' lost by Leeds is significantly less than a very conservative 'core' lost by us.
Let's make no mistake, we're in pretty much the weakest position in the league in terms of experience and personnel lost, and have made 1 signing (a player who was here last season so is net neutral). There's now 3 weeks to go. Are we going to be sat here in a week saying "Calm down there's still 2 weeks to go" or will we get a move on?
