Why we needed extra midfielders-Lucas

It was such a shame last season that when Lucas messed up his knee it was plain to see that we struggled in midfield and even some attributed the dip in form of Adam and LFC as a whole to this.

Now we have extra but quality replacements at hand. I was on my way to the pub and was running late only to see that Lucas had been subbed due to an injury. I was distressed but later impressed with how we copped with the loss of such a quality player. It was also worth noting that Nuri Sahin and Oussama were not even on the bench.

Such squad depth will become apparent as we advance through the season but its a good feeling to see so many quality young players around after the decline the squad had taken since the days of H&G.
