I think this is why I don't get too wound up by the poorer results.
Yes, we have a ways to go. We expected that at this stage.
But next season we'll have McGregor still doing his thing. Goldson, Jack, Tav, Barisic all hitting the 26/27 mark, start of their best years.
Docherty, Morelos, Rossiter, Katic turning 22/23. Grezda at 24. All still improving.
McCrorie and Middleton still eligible for U21s. Some younger talents looking to also make the step up.
Plenty from early 30s like Arfield and Candeias. That's all before any other signings are made.
We've not built from that sort of base for years.
Sorry but Morelos apart not one of they players has made a geniuin consistent contribution and only Arfield looks like he might do.
