Stone backup keeper, Clarke 3rd choice RWB, Sketchley 3rd choice LWB, Walker 5th choice CB (I assume we’ll be signing O’Driscoll, so he will be 4th choice), Smith and Sinclair 5th and 6th choice midfielders, Knowles/Scott 5th and 6th choice strikers. I wouldn’t call that a reliance on youth.
You could say we have a much younger squad, but I wouldn’t call them ‘youth’ players.
I would also have thought that Perch will be an option at CB if we were short through injuries and suspensions.
Yep, Perch covers RWB, CB and CM. O’Keefe it sounds like can cover the same positions.
