Only they're not so great are they
Our squad was also rammed with cheap loans and a complete lack of threat in attack right from the start of the season.
Hoolahan was a poor mans Huckerby and there must have been some doubt as to how much of the season Stefanovic would be available for given his age.
We stayed up with a single win last season, released half the squad and replaced most of them with loans.
How any right minded person could have thought we'd gone from relegation candidates to promotion contenders is beyond me.
