Is this squad better than the Peter Reid 7th sides?

I'd have to disagree with them like, assuming that KR is still our default left back.

Fair enough it's all about opinions like but no-one in our team out on the wing could actually put a ball into the box like Summerbee could, none of them are even close to being that effective. I heard someone once argue that he had Quinn to aim for and he made him look good but most of the goals he set up were to the 5' 7" Phillips' head. Richardson has a huge amount to prove before he can be classed as good as Gray at left back, he has the pace to be an improvement but he's only played a handful of games, and with McCann well at the time he was good enough to get an England call-up and fully dserved it, while Cattermole may be a better prospect he isn't a better player than McCann was at the time.
Those are just my opinions, anyone can disagree with them I'm not bothered and you won't change my mind.
 
thank you for proving my point :lol:

Ah, you clearly mean just decent as counting for nothing. In which case we've got one centre half, no full backs or midfield, and one maybe two strikers.

Bruce out.
 
This one for me, seems to have strength in depth. The side that came 7th twice with Quinn and Phillips etc were good but this crop of players are better IMO.

This side has not achieved anything yet, 7th (twice) was our best (still not winning anything or in Europe) and we have not even done that, so in my view you are a little ahead of yourself in your thinking.

Does the present squad have potential yes (so did the England team at the Gabba) but then you have to deliver. I would agree we have the potential to deliver..lets see us do it!
