Exactly this, with the caveat

That they aren’t actually *that* fine for the Championship.

I don’t think many (if any) people were saying our players are “s**t”. But lots of people are saying that they’re just decent Champs players, with one hot game every now and then. And lots of decent players isn’t enough.

Basically CC’s point (that you need solid players to back up your stars) is a good one, but the issue is whether we have any real stars or just a load of solids.
