I have to disagree with Lucas going, the whole point is to strenghten the squad and have competition for places, it keeps the players keen and working harder in training and of course if a injury happened a player can step in without too much disruption, we have seen with the Konchesky signing that there is cover at LB, we have seen how versatile Martin Kelly is so we have cover at RB, in the middle we plenty to choose from with, Gerrard, Lucas, Kuyt, maxi, Jova, Poulsen, Raul, Cole, Shelvey, Pacheco, its clear we are short upfront but if rumours are to be believed Carlton Cole could wearing red by 5pm tomorrow, with Ngog improving and Nando getting fitter things are starting to look better already, the dead wood has been shipped out the new blood is either here already or imminent, i'm not going to pick the bones of what is or what should be our best starting 11, thats down to Roy and how he feels the best 11 on the day should be, We have 3 tough games coming up B'ham(a), Scum(a), Makems(h), a nice 6pts or more from them games would be nice but its vital we dont get too far behind our rivals, Spurs and shitty have already dropped points they would have expected to get, we need to take advantage asap and be sure we are in the running come March /April, Roy has the knowledge and the experience and with time will gel us into a proper force of that i am confident of, its not how you start a season its how and where you finish.
