Over the next three months the quality and depth of squads will have a major affect on which three teams will be relegated, on that basis which look the most vulnerable?

That'd be us then.

Instinctively I feel we have a shallow squad but....

I have a feeling we -- as fans -- may exaggerate our weaknesses because we're much more aware of them than we are of other clubs' shortcomings.

I suspect several first teamers at the promoted sides would infuriate us. God knows what their squad players are like.

Also: good managers and confidence bring the best out in players. On that level, I feel many of squad players may be better than we credit.

Take Sako. I have always felt there's a good footballer there. There are signs that player is coming to the fore.

The likes of Mutch and Lee can do far better for us than they have. They'd just need to not all start at once and not all play in a side without confidence.

We do urgently need another striker and a stand-out, first-choice 'keeper.


 


If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

Oh I don't think we have the worst squad of all, but in terms of depth we have to be counted among the weakest at the moment.

Yes and RH's recent interview confirms that.

January may change that [fingers crossed to breaking point].

However, the OP's point was that we will not be relegated as there are actually worse clubs than us who will truly struggle once the injuries and suspensions mount.

Sadly, the main reason we may survive is the relative poverty of resources of other clubs.
