I think there might be 12............

I think there are possibly 12 players who are good but some I'm not sure about as they've not yet played much for the club.

Gunn (not yet sure about)
Franke (not yet sure about)
Tettey
Reed (not yet sure about but not a strong DM, might be good alongside Tettey)
Murphy
Maddison
Pritch
Wes
Watkins (not yet sure about)
Spiderman (not yet sure about)
Vranic (not yet sure about)
Olive

1 keeper, 1 defender, 1 defensive-midfielder, 1 striker, 7 attacking-midfielders. That is why I think it might be wise to get Naismith off the books even if on a free transfer so to use the savings towards boosting the defence. There's no need for more wing-backs as there are so many attacking MF options. Sign a couple of solid full-backs.

        That is true, but that stub gave him a chance to have a proper look at what he had (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Aug 21, 14:23:45

- bad, isn't it. (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Aug 21, 11:03:05

- Would either of them have made your list after 4 games? (n/m) (NCFC) - CauldRon, Aug 21, 10:51:35

    - I seem to remember it took them both (NCFC) - CauldRon, Aug 21, 11:13:24

      - My recollection is that Klose was great when he first came in and then got worse (NCFC) - Jim, Aug 21, 11:19:19
        
        Klose looked ropey for the first few games (NCFC) - maidstoneyellow, Aug 21, 11:40:05
