Ok.....
The [Poor language removed] - will get nowhere near the title again and will battle Arsenal IMO for 3rd and 4th. They still need a wingers and back up players with quality, another holding midfielder, and some back up centre halves.
Citeh - Only bought a young upstart for 19mill that may or maybe not be ok. They still need an entire back up for their back 4 which is something that kicked them in the teeth last year.
Pompy - Crouch is a good signing for them, but they need more time to gel from what I've read (meant to have been [Poor language removed] agasint Manure the other day). Their centre halves are old as, and Muntari is off to Inter so they need another CM.
Blackburn - Their star winger is probably off (dunno where to though), and they aint got anyone in yet (minus Paul Robinson). Same boat as us.
Villa - Aint bought anyone. Bouma just got hammered and their only hope is keeping hold of Barry, which is good for them. They need another couple of defenders and an out and out goal scorer.
Spurs - In a transition phase with Ramos starting a fresh. Have potential (we say that every year and what happens?) but with Robbie Keane gone, Berbatov and Bent going...who knows. Maybe another 30mill spends will sort them out.
So............whats why's everyone stressing. Only Spurs have spent a chunck so far. Your top 3 havent spent anything really.
Just looking at the OS and the first team squad:-
Vaughan, VDM, Ossie, Cahill, Hibbert and Arteta all injured.
Anichebe set to be missing because he is playing for Nigeria and Johnson will complete a move to Fulham.
Line up against Blackburn would be if it was to kick-off tommorrow:-
....................Howard....................
..................................................
Yobo.....Lescott.....Jagielka.....Baines
..................................................
Pienaar..Rodwell......Neville......Baxter
..................................................
............Yakubu......Jutkiewicz.........
Bench would be Gosling, Kissock, Ruddy, Turner, ?, ?, ?
No other first team squad to choose from!!!!!!!!!!!!!
