I agree with your analysis. I wasn't really looking forward to this season but now I am excited again. We will see a fresh approach and we still have the core of a very good side
- Milner out hopefully Ireland in
- Downing from day 1
- plus Delph (when he returns), the Fonz, Albrighton, Clark and Lichaj a year older and ready to play more of a part
- NRC, Young and Beye hopefully playing a part.
As long as we don't lose any more that makes us a stronger side in my opinion.
Don't see many of our rivals, Citeh excepted, looking that much stronger.
