People talk about the money we've spent and how it's the best team in the championship ever. It's really not. Our team last time we were in this league was far better.
So many poor sides have found us out because our defence and keeper are average, same with most of our midfield and forwards. Shelvey and Gayle are the 2 best players in the league, the rest of our squad is bang average at this level. We will go up, but need a huge turnover in players. Thankfully players like Gouf, Ritchie and Atsu have turned it on when we've needed points.
Rafa has got it wrong several times, but the fact he has this squad top of the league with less than 10 games to go is absolutely fine with me. He's proved his worth in the toughest games when it mattered. Nullify them completely and hit them out of the blue. Only lost away once to the top 10 teams in the league.
