Whilst I acknowledge that the TW has only been opened a week and that hopefully we're nowhere near the finished article yet. What do you think of the squad so far, especially compared to last seasons squad.
Personally I still think a lot has to be done.
1. We've got our keeper,however not sure how he compares to Macey
2. Full backs no change.
3. Centre backs, we've only swapped Robertson for Shaugnessy, so still an unknown there. I'd say we're currently weaker as we haven't replaced D'Shon - yet.
4. Central Midfielders, probably slightly better if we feel we've replaced Thompson with Stevenson and brought in a Devlin who seems to have more potential than Mingi.
5. Wingers, slightly worse off IMO. Scully in for Jacobs and Lane ( who I don't expect a lot from TBH - hasn't really taken off in the N.I squad (and neither has Whyte)). We're also losing Curtis so I feel we need 2 more wingers.
6. Attacking Midfielder/No 10, no change, we haven't had one or got one - yet.
7. Strikers, Worse off. Last season we had 3 now we've currently got 2. Is Saydee better or even equal to Scarlett or Pigott?
So all in all IMO I feel we're slightly worse off but with 2 months of TW still to run I'm hoping we're going to improve,especially in the attacking dept.

As has already been alluded to, I'm yet to be convinced that any of the signings have improved us from last season, with the exception of Sculley, we have just filled holes and replaced.
We need a lot of quality to get out of this god forsaken league.
