That’s the point. uptheiron, you’re counting players who are undercooked/inexperienced in with the whole squad number which in it’s self is absolutely ridiculous.
We’re 8 0r 9 players short of a balanced squad, if you fill in the other 4/5 gaps with current youth players we truly are fecked.
What do you think would happen if the experienced players pick up injuries and were left with a glorified youth team playing in this uncompromising league ?
If we only sign 4 players it will be nowhere near good enough. 1 of those 4 will be a rookie GK and Hallam who’s one of the experienced ones currently on the books is injured for the most part.
You can’t just simply fill slots with people who have little to no experience and count them as viable back ups.
