Can't say I agree with this. Of the young guys I think Banks will contribute, Appere might, Chalmers probably no. I'd imagine Pawlett and Sow probably will spend some time out injured this season too but you'd have to think it's likely they'll be available more games than they won't.
Even if we do discount all 5 of those guys though, still leaves us Shankland, McMullan, Clark and C.Smith. Stanton and Harkes could also play further forward if needed, I'd imagine any other manager in this league would bite your hand off to have that kind of depth among their attacking players.
My main area of concern is centre midfield, no sure we have that all rounder type player who'll come and get the ball from the defenders and move us up the pitch, dictate the tempo of a game etc. I've a fear of games descending into short passes between Connolly and Reynolds before a hoof for Shankland to lose in the air.
Really though, I think the squad we have, used properly, should be winning this league.
