Realistically we've got 3 full backs, 3 centre backs & Fryers. Up front we've got Moore, Woodrow plus Victor as back up.
Midfield regulars could be Mowatt, Dougall, McGeehan, Thiam, Bahre & Brown.
Say we got to the play off final against Portsmouth/Sunderland and we had a couple of injuries and a player suspended (not unlikely).
If we were lucky and we were without 1 defender,a midfielder & a forward, could we be confident of a win?
If we without Pinnock, Thiam & Woodrow what team could we put out?
Davies, Cavare, Williams, Lyndsay, Jackson, Mowatt, Dougall, Brown, McGeehan, Moore & Victor.
Bench: Walton, Pinnilos, Fryers, Bahre, Green, Hedges & Isgrove (if fit).
That's it, there's nobody else.
This is all presuming we don't sell anyone else.
If you think that team could win at Wembley we don't need anyone else.
Don't say the injury/suspension thing couldn't happen - ask Spurs fans.
They lost 3 players 2 weeks ago and they've been knocked out of 2 cups, dropped out of contention for the league and will more than likely go out of Europe next week.
