I can't remember going into a season with such an array of decent back 4 players. Assuming nobody is sold in the meantime, the options are staggering. Selecting 4 (or maybe 5?) from Patterson, Peltier Morrison, Manga, Bamba, Connolly, Bennet, Richards appears to be a luxury we've rarely experienced - and I've left out Halford as well!....... We should be able to shut a lot of teams out with that lineup - now time to concentrate on creating rather than stopping.
The defence will be as good as anything Zahore better than anything. 2 central midfielders needed. 1 for the starting line up. Quality there alongside Ralls and Gunner and we are serious promotion contenders.
