So, pre season has started, we're 5 weeks away from start of next season and we've brought in one player, haven't tied down our best players.
Is this really how to prepare for a top 6 campaign?
Only good news is Bianchi and hopefully bellusci going.

Nowhere near a top 6 campaign has things stand. No stability with the management side swept completely out and changed again. This is turn means that Monk is starting from scratch with a very thin squad. Monk will not know these players from adam. Hes been in the Prem for some time and i doubt hes spent many afternoons watching Leeds on sky. So we are already more dis-organised than when we finished the season.
We have lost Bridcutt, Carayol, Adeyemi, Bianchi and Bellusci, Antenucci
We have replaced 6 players with Antonsson.
Top 6? You are having a laugh.......
Top 10 - no chance.
If the season kicked off now id be predicting 16th

whilst some of them were no good they do at least add competition for places and cover for injuries etc. Bridcutt without a doubt made a difference
Without Antenuccis goals last season we would have finished much lower
Bellusici had a very good run of form for part of last season.
These players contributed

"Without Antenuccis goals last season we would have finished much lower"
Without his poor choice of shots we might have scored more and finished higher.
Strikers are supposed to be a little selfish. He was more than a little...
