Dream on, we ain't going to be signing 4-7 players. We have employed a manager to improve the current players and maybe 2 signings. Agreed Painter,could not have said it better myself.

We are in trouble then, especially if there's some attempt to change style. Better get a good start with those easier fixtures so early. But we know how that can go....

Strengths in depth before Jan was poor, and you take out the players released and loans that expired. That's a gap of 5 players. - remy & sakho (loan expired) and 3 first teamers realised flamini, Ledley and Campbell Edited by Dan89 (21 Jul 2017 10.29am)

Only Sakho, but that deal could still happen. People have been calling for youth to be given a chance, well it's coming.

And anyway, Sam said Sakho plus 1, or no Sakho and more. The released wages make this more possible. (I had reservations over Sakho because of this reason)

People have been calling for youth to be given a chance, well it's coming. Well then there's at least 3 players that need to be replaced then. Mandanda, Sakho, Remy. Loftus-Cheek you could argue replaces Ledley in number, but there's at least 3 there, and there are probably more we're targeting. I highly doubt we're going to rely on youngsters this season as 2nd choices. I'm not saying we'll have 22 quality players, because we only have about 15, but any youngsters will be behind those 15 + 3 or 4 or more.
