Tough call. We have Ball to come back of course, but I find it hard to conclude we definitely have a better squad at today's date. Losing a player of Celina's quality is a big deal in this league. If Leif is as good as hoped, and if our strikers start scoring, then 'this season', but that's a very tough one to call at this very early stage. And how do you assess Bonne when he was so chalk and cheese?
If we sign Hirst, then I would say this season.
Two things are clear: - We have a better manager than at the start of last season - We have fewer new players that need to 'gel' than we did last season
Those are reasons why we should expect to come higher than 11th, hope to come in the top six, and dream to come in the top 2.

More balanced except for strikers

We have a manager having had a full pre-season with this squad. And a definite improvement on the left. That is significant imo.
I’d say we are stronger. Just..,

I know when you look player for player we might look different from last season but it is different in a good way. KMcK has had time to redefine his squad, select players with attributes and characteristics he wants. He’s completely redesigned the left handside which will impact positively defensively and offensively.
I am one of the voices that says it’s most likely shot at top 6, but top 2 with +1 recognised goal scorer. Until now we are all in on Ladapo and hoping others catch fire to share the load, they will but we can’t be sure. I’ve watched too many football seasons to know a highly paid striker isn’t guaranteed to deliver 20 goals!
