On paper, we’re in a much better position than we were at this stage last season. In terms of quality, that’s almost impossible to question – the players we’ve brought in should all produce more than those we’ve let go. We’ve brought in a healthy mix of youth and experience – helping us adjust to the post Gerrard era – and we’ve managed to limit our spending by bring in a couple of freebies.
The only criticism can be the lack of real big names, although as we’ve alluded to, that really had to be expected considering our current situation. There’s still plenty to excite the fans next season and hopefully it will be healthy to build a team, rather than to be reliant on one or two individuals.
