Bottom line – what has been wrong on the pitch?
Too much inexperience but no spine.
Now, the balance has changed. We cannot judge what happens next by the failures on the pitch pre-transfer window.
Clean slate. 18 games. Don’t let our position in that mini league fall into the bottom third.
We have strengthened at CB. We have strengthened wide. We have strengthened in CM in front of defence.
Burns looks better than Scrimshaw. We have strikers to rough up defenders.
We’ll get the ball into the box more.
Who can argue that this side is not truly improved?
It may not be enough … but there is still cause for a little hope.
