It's a meh window. Not brill. Not crap. Club probably doesn't deserve any slagging off or disrespect. My over-riding feeling is that we have a top-drawer front line to choose from; still a decent midfield but (currently) a much downgraded defensive line. My hope is that Shep and Lopata are the next shining lights, but they ain't there yet. French lad is very much unknown, but looks like he is willing to give it a go. Cadden and Williams give experience and class; Cotter still gives me heart problems. Improves his defensive side and could be solid. So overall I think we could potentially score 4 or 5 every game - but at times we may need to !
Everyone calling for an experienced head in defence.... Cundy? Doesn't he count? (When he's fit anyway). And to some extent, we can probably call Williams experienced by now too
Thing is, if we don't go up this season we will definitely lose at least Connell and no doubt Cole. We could well lose them if we don't go up!
I'm happy with defence. J. Williams, Lopata, Shepherd, Mcart, Cundy, McCarthy, James and only three can play.
Roberts seems to be a good signing. Losing our 3 CBs, captain and vice captain, well, not exactly ideal. The new signings have to be good enough, otherwise we'll just ship goals. Phillips and Connell are 2 class signings, got Styles back too. Hopefully we're better upfront now after signing Mcattee and Cosgrove. Time will tell.
Ah but they played abroad (being cute about which Ronaldo), it's different if they played abroad, cos everything abroad is ****.
