Yeah, fair point actually. But there's no reason to suppose we'd be any better placed than we were, say, twelve months ago. Which I think is what I may have misread you as having said.
I agree with those who are encouraged by pre-season form, you shouldn't read too much into it I know but it never stops me, I'm pretty confident right now.
I also agree Weir would be dropped before Tade at the moment, should another striker come in who's worthy of a starting place.
