Better team than last year?

[Timmy the Doc]

If we don't buy or sell anyone:

Green
Perch Onuoha Hall Yun
Sandro Luongo
Phillips Fer Chery
Austin

If we don't buy or sell anyone:

Green
Perch Onuoha Hall Yun
Sandro Luongo
Phillips Fer Chery
Austin

By a country mile - still think we need a "proper" left back. Jury is still out for me on Yun and Konchesky even though he played well last night isn't the long term solution to that position.

Subs Yun for Robinson!

No way.

Green - the same.
Perch - Isla was far far superior.
Nedum - the same.
Hall - don't know anything about, can't comment. Imagne Caulker is better though (I know it's a bit of a bandwagon to say Caulker is god awful though so some won't agree).
Yun - the same.
Sandro - the same.
Luongo - too early to say if better than Barton. Certainly younger, more promising & better suited for where the club are at now, but better? Not so sure.
Phillips - the same.
Fer - the same.
Chery - Vargas was better. Chery looks a fine player for us at this level though, I am not knocking him at all.
Austin - same player.

Given the players OP has stated, the only positions we have new faces in & can compare for this thread are:

Perch vs Isla
Hall vs Caulker
Luongo vs Barton
Chery vs Vargas

Also, I would imagine 2 or 3 of Fer, Phillips Austin will be come come September 2nd anyway and not a single one of their "replacements" are as good, not near.

In summary, I think we will have a far worse squad than last year HOWEVER we are in a different league, with different aspirations and I am happier with the squad we have now and the direction the club are trying to go in (and no that's not to League 1 for you pessimists ).

Better individual players mentioned granted but wasn't vargas a bit of a wrongun according to some? Just one "Bad egg" can spoil everything. Barton divides fans regarding his persona so why wouldn't he divide players? Some people simply can't stand the man and that must apply in the football world too. Seeing as its a team game id say we are better off this season, there isn't that feeling of players really not wanting to be here . even the ones looking to move are putting in a shift
