We need a left back a winger and striker minimumHe maybe should have added "but that means moving 6 or 8 out"
New players was correct, we do need new players to replace some from last year. You dont buy a new car and keep ya old one, unless ya quilted

Cattermole replacement is Robson

Need to shift two defenders, a midfielder and a forward and bring one of each in. Easy to identify the defenders we’d want rid of. More difficult with the midfielder and striker. The squad is pretty decent and has around the right number, though. We just need to stop f***ing about with this 3 at the back shit.

Matthews was replaced by McLaughlin.
Willis replaces Love
Ruiter replaced by Burge
Embleton replaces Morgan
Robson replaces Dunne or Stirling.
So who replaces Cattermole.
Tbh there's a few I wouldn't mind leaving and off we signed a physical central midfielder, like Dobson, and Maddisson I'd be happy

Absolutely no chance with Ross at the helm and our current transfer policy of freebies and loans

Surely getting rid of cattermole on £35k a week means we can get 2-3 players in?

He will know who he doesn`t want but its so feckin hard to move folk on these days, unless clubs bid i cant imagine him touting some of the poorer players off last season about and getting much joy at all.
100 points
Can't judge too quickly but I do wonder if the owners will end up regretting making that statement. Its piled the pressure on in the sense that everyone now knows, beyond any doubt, that Ross is expected to win the league. That's all well and good but, from January onwards, we were only on course for 76 points so we were a long way short.
I'd like to think that we've improved the defence; Willis seems decent, hopefully better than Dunne, and McLaughlin seems okay, we've lost Matthews who didn't play much. We've swapped reserve keepers, which shouldn't make much difference. In midfield we've lost Morgan and Cattermole, and up top we're the same (lost Sterling, but that's hardly a blow).
On the whole I don't think we're any weaker than last season at present, but that's still a long way off having a side we can be confident of reaching, or even challenging for, 100 points. If it is to be one out one in we've got our work cut out to get players shifted because we absolutely need fresh blood. So far it's minor tweaks rather than any real influx of quality, publicly targeting a points total which pretty much involves blowing the rest of the league away is an odd one if you aren't confident of bringing real quality in. Maybe they are, or maybe they're just supremely confident in Ross, but currently I wouldn't personally be expecting more than play offs again, absolutely vital we shift Oviedo (preferably without paying so much of his contract up that we don't get much of a saving)

If it’s one in, one out. Keep Oviedo. He’s better than anything we could buy.

Given we will no doubt have our annual injury crisis at some point that would be very naive.
