As things stand.
last two games both against league 1 teams sums up where we are currently.
We have some very promising youngsters at the club but to rely upon them this year to stay up is a big ask.
Im bemused by many comments by plenty of fans who think one or two more signings will sort us out.
We had one of the worst defences in the league last year which we countered with one of the best attacks in Wells, Eze and Hugil.
All 3 have gone and we have lost two seasons pros in Hall and Leinster at the back.
Dickie is a good signing but him alone will not plug the holes at the back.
Dykes similarity is a good signing but he’s not 15-20 goal a season striker, his strengths lie in other areas like holding the ball up, bullying defenders and bringing other players into play.
He wasn’t prolific in Scotland so again it’s harsh to expect him to be the goalscoring replacement for Wells, Hugil and Eze.
Theres also this common consensus that young chair is the next Eze and let me tell he isn’t. The lads good but he’s miles behind Eze and giving him the number 10 shirt imo is to much pressure.
we need a gk, lumley and Kelly are a joke, defence is alarming, cdm not perfect but we do have options there, we lack creativity in the wings and attacking mod positions and up top we desperately need another striker or two.
I hope the club have realised the last two results are showing we do not have the squad to compete on the champ this year as it stands.
5/6 shrewd signings can change this quickly and in some ways propel us to be a decent team in the champ but one or two more won’t suffice imo.
