Time for a reality check; and to look yourself in the mirror

-We have all learnt that a Forward which is of high enough quality to guarantee goals would cost you around£86m.
>Even if you could raise the money, they tend to prefer clubs that are competing for top honors.

-Spending £20-30m on an attacker does not guarantee an instant impact,
>especially if they are joining from a different league.

-Players are only singular components of the Team; when we read about developing our "philosophy" its means we need to create a blueprint of how we want to play our football.
>Who expected Chadli to perform as he did on Sunday, could Townsend or Lennon score his 2nd goal?

-Our team is a work in progress, and we are now seeing solid examples that the manager is genuinely looking at each players attributes
>How can any fan say who should be sold, kept or purchased based the limited fact and data we see?

As long as the manager is supported by all associated with the club, we should trust he will do what is best
>He is the one who will be judged at the end of the season!

Great post 76. For to long we have relied on individuals.

Yesterday albeit 1 game was a true team performance with a manager playing players where they are comfortable and with confidence.

Teams like Swansea and Southampton are proof that a team playing for each other and work ethic are just as importAnt as the players in the team.

Chadli, Kane, bentaleb, rose all look different players let's hope we finally have a manager who will get the most out of our squad in many ways like Harry did

Hi Ed,

if as expected Dawson and Chiriches leave and Fazio arrives, do you think that will provide us with sufficeint cover at the back (JV, Kaboul, Dier & Fazio)? Do you think either Fryers or Veljkovic are good enough to do a job there if needed?

Cheers.

{Ed008's Note - That's 4 central defenders that should be enough cover right there with 3 of them able to cover the full back areas if needed, I can only see Fryers and Veljkovic playing the smaller cup games this season.
