Today, FWIW,

New boys:
Duffy looks great. Need someone to play along side him.
Stacey big, strong, what we need.
Barnes, holds the ball up well, buys fouls like Holty used to.
Comes deep looking for the ball. I like him.
Fassnacht, big, strong, looks to come inside to support strikers. Promising.
Overall, we look bigger, stronger. Better organised without the ball. Got players forward quickly when in possession. Rowe looks up for it. Hope it is his breakthrough season.
However, we need Gibson to discover form under DF. Andy O needs to dominate more, like Duffy and Hanley. He is a bit weak. I like to see my CBs clatter the strikers. Andy O doesn't.
Pity Gabby and Nunez are so deep. They are much better higher up the pitch. Seems we are short of a strong, athletic CM to play alongside Kenny.
4 4 f*** 2.
It needs to be flexible to work. Wagner trying things: Barnes coming deep, Fassnacht moving inside, Kenny dropping deep. 3 at the back, Placheta at left back, McCallum CB.
Still look shaky when playing out from the back. Going to need heart pills watching this season.
