Doesn't help when you've got Stephens and Wood at CB. They are both so slow on the ball. THB is the key in that respect. So his replacement really needs to know how to pass the ball forwards quickly and accurately.
The biggest problem is this side has no real pace or power in it at all. Unless we sign 2-3 starters in the next 10 days we will struggle to make the top 8 I think.
Yep and our recruitment to replace players we'd sold last summer was generally very good. Whether Spors can replicate that is another matter. Replacing THB will be very very hard given how influential he is on and off the pitch.
