we are weak in depth
a) in goal - we set our depth out on loan and were back to square one
b) right back - we need to sacrifice a first choice centre back to cover it
c) centre midfield - we have two first team regulars and the first choice back up/rotation player injured. for whatever reason koeman thinks reed wasn't ready.
d) up front - we started the season with two players recovering from surgery
tbh with this injury record the top clubs all struggle.
goal and right back are weaknesses of our own creation and rightly should attract criticism.
