Goats squad analysis thread 2022/23

[DanEFC92]

How bad is this squad hahaa

JESUS

 

[LABlue2]

I knew it was bad but look at those attackers. We are not going to score enough goals to stay up with those players.

 

[navidson]

It's like someone's wiped their arse on a teamsheet. Awful.

Wont see many ins for specialist widers imo. Think Lamps gonna go with 532 width coming from our wing backs. Leaves Dele, Gordon and Gray scrapping for the role behind Dom.

Jesus, when you see those attacking options with no Richie, you wonder if we’ll hit double figures as a team next season

[God Benfrey]

Surely 4/5th favourites to go down

Rondon's heat map describes the entropic death of the universe.

The lump.

 

[ToffeeDan]

12 wins 2 draws 24 defeats.. that's the target..

Nothing Special Needs Optimising.

We need two forwards

 

[chicoazul]

Huge, pivotal five weeks ahead to turn that limp squad into anything that can survive another Premier League season, with limited funds. Don’t even need a few key injuries to put us in trouble that full squad is capable of achieving that at full strength.

We need minimum a 6 and a 8 in midfield. A wide forward and another striker.

As another season crashes to an end, it's time to look forward to next season.

Given the small degree of uncertainty, analysis will follow at a later date.

As always it's just a thread to "track" ins and outs, please use the transfer thread for your FIFA line-ups, but of course feel free to add input in areas you think need a tweak.

*I have assumed Begovics year option in his contract will be activated, that might not be the case.

I wonder is this a useful graphic for this thread?

Is that when he goes to the toilet for a plop lol

 

[Deco]

That squad.. what a mess.

We badly need some more deadwood out, Gomes, Davies, Gbamin, Rondon and more, and replaced with top young talent.

We literally couldn’t be worse off if we did that.
