I think you over-value some of those players, iof you think they'd want into all of those squads. A few of them would, but not all.

Not many pre season games. Using the Charity shield as a warmup game to the season rather than a ready to go game is the reason why our record hasn’t been so good recently. 

Would have liked a couple of friendlies against lower opposition early on to give young and non World Cup players game time and also give players confidence with a few goals.

We tried to play football. We set up to play our game not counter like Conte did. We finished with over 45% possession against a top side which hasn't happened alot over the last year.

Yes we played poor on the attack not really creating alot. But I believe the players coming back can sort that.

Just need to grind out results as the players work out how to play the new way and score goals
