I think we look a bit flimsy this time around
Last champ season AN would have BJ, Dorrans, Tettey, Howson as is his midfield with Wes off Jerome. There was a bit more steel in the side then. Teams could physically dominate us. The worrying signs last week and today is that we can be bullied and lack the legs to out work teams at this level.
He's recruitment policy has been strange this summer, he seems obsessed with AMC but he hasn't replaced Grabban or Hooper yet. Bizarre stuff.
At least Neil Adams recruited good forwards in the summer we went down. Jerome and Grabban were excellent at champ level. AN obsession with shoehorning Naismith into the side has left us looking disjointed and unbalanced.
Also the Murphy's are exciting prospects but I'm not sure they should be starting once everyone is fit. Great options from the bench though
