So we need to improve. Status quo gets us to 7th again. We need 3 quality players IMO.
Not sure status quo gets you 7th again… Clough seems to think it, loads of fans same but it won’t work like that, the ‘existing’ team is now minus some key names and they’re all a little bit older especially Quinn who was best player and made Macca much better.
We’ve signed Boetang good signing but in reality doesn’t strengthen the 11 as we don’t need midfielders… critical we sign a proper CB a winger and a striker… anyone really think we’ll not go on a bad run at some point coupled with going on another record breaking running streak? Won’t happen without strengthening
A few things I would say to that.
You’re not considering the prospect of the younger/prime players in the squad improving, just the ageing players getting worse.
You say we need a winger and a striker. One of those wouldn’t play every week in the current systems we used so one is unlikely to be of star quality.
And finally, we wouldn’t need to go on a record breaking run, the wins could be spread out evenly throughout the season. It’s also equally, if not more unlikely that we’ll go 12 games without a win.
Good point but all ifs and buts the reality though is we need better additions to the squad , this season will be tougher and with the current squad I expect mid table .. my opinion that’s all
