3 weeks today we will register our first squad for the Premier League season. The squad is currently much weaker than the one that finished last season.
I want an explanation from someone at the club, Moyes, Kinnear, don’t care who. If there is no money and we intend to pad out the squad with late loans then I’d rather they just tell us.
Much weaker?
No.
You're catastrophising there.
Out:
Maupay
Young
Holgate
Virginia
Begovic
Doucoure
Crellin
Calvert-Lewin
4 meaningful members of the first team squad have left, highlighted.
In:
Barry
Alcaraz
Travers
2 meaningful members of the new first team squad have joined. Alcaraz doesn't count for the purposes of the comparison.
So that's 2 meaningful players we're currently down, with makeweights needed to pad beyond that.
With 5 weeks of the window to go.
