Compared to last season's strongest 11;
GK - Stronger
Defence -Weaker
Midfield - Weaker
Forwards - Stronger.

His next few singing's are massive and will have a lot to do with how we get on this season. We're going to have to deal with having a fragile midfield next year, not something i'm thrilled about. Certainly need a new centre half and a left back, i'd also take an experienced leader in the CDM role. Hopefully Hamer will step up.

I'd question your assumption that are striking options are better. We have only confirmed the arrival of waghorn, (who has been average at best for Derby) and we have lost Gyokres, Biamou and 20 goals Bakayoko!
There's also Godden's on going injury issues to deal with as well.

I mean it’s fairly common knowledge we have signed Gyo permanently now

I think Walker will come good this season. I am expecting 15-20 goals from him

Sick note is an unknown quantity at this level.
Bright and Gyrokres are no more than rumours (for now at least)

Perhaps i was a bit presumptuous, but it does seem he is looking to add forwards in the coming days!

He certainly needs to.

I have a feeling that Ostigard might return on loan again very shortly.

Spot on. Assume Moore is an upgrade. Defence and forwards you nailed it. James an enormous loss, but only if he keeps his fitness at Bristol. Walsh (if we were in for him) will be interesting to see how he does at Swansea. Bright if he comes will I think be awesome or a clown possibly at the same time. Think loans are going to be really important especially if they need to get up to speed. Even Osti and McCallum took a while to find their feet. We look to be a bit weaker than when the season finished and I'm hoping Kelly and Godden can get match fit ASAP and MR can fill in the gaps.

Think CH and WB plus a defensive midfield plus with Eccles coming through plus hamer being a year at this level ,the same for sheaf and a midfielder an older head from outside of the club think we will be set for a mid table of 13 th upwards.

LB, CB, CM

CAM (Assuming this will be Bright).

Get these right and of High quality and we will be in a good position. And not only the starting 11 but with Bright, O'Hare, Jones as attacking options we will have a better bench this season.

A big issue we had last year was we had nobody to come on to make an impact.
