Two Games In...

And having watched our games as well as other Prem games with a lot more interest than usual...

Players are preferably big, fast and strong-or at least two of those three qualities.

If you've got only the one-well, you need to be exceptional at that, else you'll struggle...though how you excel at just being "big" is something of an issue for that theory!

Much of our squad are very strong/fit and have some pace about them. Its getting the overall mix right which is the problem-I don't think PL is so very far away but I do wonder if some hither-to "heroes" are going to find themselves wanting and left behind in the coming weeks?
