Start of this season the "experts" were all tipping us to go down. Key reason was the loss of important players, and failure to replace them close season. While the new team took a while to get going (and in some cases to recruit), it has been at least as successful, and has the opportunity to exceed last season's outcome. So considering the replacements of those key players... Fox for Cerny - Improvement. More consistent,more reliable and earns more points with good saves. Hit the ground running, has been an upgrade from day 1 Balatoni for Lindsay - Promotion from within. Nice to see. Been a learning process but I think Liam has been as good as Balatoni ever was, and wth greater potenial for improvement. O'Donnell for Dumbuya - Late signing and missed a lot of games but I think when avaiable Mustapha has been an improvement, which is impressive as O'Donnell was important. Miller also important as cover Higginbotham for Amoo - Took a while to get going. Good recently. And Higgie was rubbish last season anyway Taylor for Pogba - Okay, to be honest... But, Pogba does a job. Gives us another option, which is important. But it you offered me a swap I'd take Lyle Taylor Not bad though. Credit to the mangement. Overall as a team, far more resilient. Good progress. Thoughts?
