In my opinion

Steer was the only massive change.

Drury, Barny, Ward and Russ is our back four from last season without Mad Marc.

Wes, Pilks, Benno, Fox is our strongest midfield if you ask me.

And after Holty, 1R and Cinnamon are our best two strikers.

If Lambert had given a couple of kids a run out I could understand it being called a weakened team, but other than Steer, that team was as strong, if not stronger than the team that faced Leicester in the league last season.

      - that team was more than capable, but sadly Pilks was going throgh a Lee Peltier (NCFC) - lovely old job, Feb 19, 21:49:42
        
        Yep it was (NCFC) - norway, Feb 19, 21:51:17
        
        I remember wishing we'd signed Peltier after his trial with us from Liverpool (NCFC) - pants, Feb 19, 21:51:05

        agree. I really enjoyed watching Vaughan for the half hour too (NCFC) - pants, Feb 19, 21:46:30
        
        So do you think that starting XI was strong enough to beat Leicester or not? (n/m) (NCFC) - norway, Feb 19, 21:48:16
        
        In my opinion (NCFC) - Klobo04, Feb 19, 21:52:19
        
        Disagree about that being our strongest midfield (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Feb 19, 22:06:23
        
        too many attacking midfielders, no balance (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Feb 19, 22:52:01
        
        Yep that's how I see it too. (NCFC) - norway, Feb 19, 21:55:23
      - So you're saying that the players who were picked did as well as they could (NCFC) - norway, Feb 19, 21:41:37
