It's not a poor squad at all.
Injuries have hit us even since the close of the season - which hasn't helped but our main problem is quality depth in certain areas.
Martinez built an imbalanced squad, and it looks like our failure to add an out-and-out back-up striker will cost us.
However, there's no need to panic. It was merely a case of one too many changes last night and then the players we put out there (particularly Del and Barkley) not performing as required in front of goal.
Del's finishing is awful.
To be honest mate we have no back up striker and no creativity besides Ross who is hit and miss at the best of times.
Take those two out and is the squad really that good? that is the second time this season so far no rom = the team offers nothing up front. Doesn't really matter how solid we are at the back or how many CM we have, if none of our back up attackers can score any goals.
