To those who think our squad is too weak, bear in mind that: Palmer, Kipre, Ajayi, Reach, Sawyers, Quevin Moises Castro, Snodgrass, Philips, Zohore and Tulloch are our back-up players for the subs bench and reserves. That eleven could do quite well in the championship on their own right and they are second choice as things stand. So we are not as thread bare as a few imply.
I think the key is to rest everyone save the U23s for the league cup and to pray we keep the injuries to a minimal. Remember, we are planning on how we deal with the games from this weekend coming to January, not until May. In the new year we get to buy and sell again.
Of course if MP stays and gets brought back into the team from September onwards then we are completely spoilt.
