Out-
AMB (Walton is an upgrade)
Strain (Rawlins is worse)
Kerestzes (Forbes is probably better)
Ferry (The Romanian needs a few games to judge)
Luca (Rawlins can’t get near him, Agyei’s done okay to help replace him in midfield)
Sibbald (Tait wants the ball more and looks more of a leader)
Fatah (Randall couldn’t lace his boots)
Dolcek (Merghem/Bennie remains to be seen).
Watters (Rose works harder, just as good a finisher as that dumpling though)
Bin the data led recruitment. Get some scouts out around the UK and actually watch players.

As I said before, the ceptic team yesterday was valued at 10 times ours. Put that in perspective
, judge against a realistic opponent and we will see how good our players truly are. Not a skoda versus a jaguar.

A Skoda is a better car than a Jaguar nowadays lol.

A couple of the players are looking a bitty like rabbits in the headlights, but they've just played 3 of the toughest opponents we'll face.
A real baptism of fire, I think we have to allow at least a full round of fixtures before making proper judgements, some players hit the ground running, some take a while.

Few players coming to us are going to be as good as Fatah or Luca. Otherwise, it looks like you think we've had upgrades or, pretty sensibly, that it's too early to tell. We've just played what will most likely be far away the top three teams this season, and despite two 4-0s, played alright. I'm not as positive as some about the 4-0s, especially the Hearts game--and think, especially, the midfield three need sorting out asap. But am not (yet) hitting any panic buttons.
I'd like to see a proper right back in the building, and if Ferry's off, we're going to need competition for left back. I'd also like to see another centre half, though despite the goals conceded, I don't think there's much wrong at the back.

Right back is the biggest issue for me just now. Naamo can’t seem to stay fit and I wasn’t particularly impressed with him last season anyway. Rawlins looks miles off it. Sevelj could probably do a better job there than both but don’t think that’s really his best position.
We have some good centre mids, we need to find the 3 that will work best together. From the very little I’ve seen of Yoro I would suggest he will be one of them. Tait has also been decent. Then I think one of Sevelj or Ageyi (both have blown hot and cold so far).
Up front I’m really not sure what our best 3 are, plenty options but none look like definite starters at the moment.

I'm not going to write off Rawlins. It's his first few games, against some of the toughest opposition he'll face. Likewise Randall, who's come in for some flack--and should have got the winner against Rangers--but seems to me to be pretty decent, and may yet do very well for us.
