If you go through both current squads........
Goalkeeper, we are stronger.
Full backs, we are far stronger, but there is a bit of a drop off, if Tav or Borna get injured.
Central defence, they currently only have Ajer and Jullien, plus Biton in an emergency.
We have 4 quality proper central defenders.
Central midfield, they only have McGregor Brown and Ntcham, compared to our 5 options of Jack, Kamara, Aribo, Davis and Arfield.
Up to this point, we definitely have more quality and depth.
However, in the 2 positions behind the striker, Christie and Forrest made a huge goals contribution last season and they also have Elyanoussi too, although he's flattered to deceive so far.
It's vital that Hagi and Kent really step up to the plate this season and weigh in heavily with goals and assists.
The striker situation for both clubs is currently uncertain.
Alfredo's future is up in the air and Defoe is recovering from injury.
They have Edouard, who on his day is an excellent striker, but has looked totally disinterested so far this season and hasn't scored.
Griffiths is a basket case and has only played 20 minutes for their reserves so far this season and the Pole they signed has been worse than useless.
They are threadbare in the goalkeeping, central defence and centre midfield positions, while we desperately need to strengthen further forward.
Whoever does the best business in their weaker areas will be in pole position, for me.
