I don't have much doubt about Clark, Lichaj, Bannan, Baker and Herd at this point - I think what we've seen of them shows that they are good enough to be in the squad. That leaves the uncertains - Gardner, Weimann, Carruthers; the latter 2 showing signs of being able to cope with Gardner (IMO) not really showing anything yet.
Even if we don't sign anyone else and the uncertains can't cut it, I don't think we'll do worse than about 15th - and considering that there has been wholesale change going on, in pretty much every area - that'd do.
I understand it's just your opinion but how you can say that Bannan is good enough to be in the squad but you're unsure and Weimann is beyond me. I'd say Bannan has got everything to prove!
Bannan has played 40 games for the club and for me, has looked the part in most of them. Now, he has the chance to play in a side that actually plays to his strengths and if the pre-season is anything to go by, he'll do well for us.
Weimann has played fewer games and hasn't had as much of a chance to shine yet - he's shown glimpses of what he can do but it's still a bit premature to say that he's good enough yet. I have hopes for him and I don't think he's going to let us down but it's still too early to say.
I dunno mate i'd say each to there own but in the games Bannan has played so far he's done nothing but disappoint me. Looks for the hollywood pass way too often. I'm hopeful though that he will slot in nicely with the type of football Lambert is hoping to get us to play.
