New Season New Start

[cress]

Reading through the majority of the posts in this thread and most people seem to be pessimistic about the new season thinking the squad is weaker or worse than last year?

We have lost Jansson and that's it. We now have a pool of Under 23 talent that won their league last year, with most being ready to step up.

For me, the squad that's available is stronger than last year, especially after having that years experience of having worked under MB etc. I keep saying first 10 games will tell us how our season will go but I think we will go 1 better this year and get promoted.

Yes, we've lost Jansson PLUS didn't remedy last season's issues while all the other teams around us continue to strengthen. We didn't literally get weaker rather we are standing still (which means going backwards).

I don't think it's about us being weaker this year, for me. I don't think Janssen leaving is particularly weakening us. It's whether we're stronger. I feel like we could be much stronger than we appear to be - unless all those u-23s come through, as you say. Hopefully they will. And also let's hope some of the lessons from last year have been learnt.
