Biggest problem is clearly going to be goals

who, apart from Pukki (who'll probably get about 10), is going to score in the current formation? Sargent? Idah? Probs 5 between them.

Normann might get a couple of long shots, ditto PLM, Kenny might get one or two headers.

Wing backs? Unlikely. Gibson is yet to score for us and has a WOEFUL career goal record for a CB. Hanley gets about 1.5 a season on average.

If, and it's a very big if, we can stay fairly solid and get Tzolis, Rashica, Cantwell in the team then maybe...
