All games in September are winnable - Burnley, villa, QPR, Norwich.

Hopefully get a bit of rotation an i'd be happy to see Rondon, Godfrey, Gomes, Davies, James etc get a bit more game time to keep squad fresh.
We have had a brilliant start and hopefully still saying this at end of the month.
I feel we have a strong squad - debating whether we should play James or not is a luxury I never thought would happen at EFC.
Couldn't knock that manager or any players so far this season - I think Keane had had a bad start but I feel he is a confidence player and will come good
COYB.

I've got to disagree about the strength of the squad, Sobs. In my opinion we've got no real cover in either fullback position, 1 excellent centre back who, to some extent, is still learning his trade and 3 that (charitably speaking) split opinion, a question mark at no. 10 (an unfavoured James? A repurposed Townsend? ) , and a back up striker who hasn't played top level football in a few years.

I also think it will be a miracle if Richy doesn't end up having some significant time out, somewhere in the season, given how much football he's played in the last 15 months.

Whilst I agree that we're playing well at the moment, it seems to me we're only a 2 or 3 injuries away from being in very difficult position, line up wise.

Totally agree Sobs. Compared to last season we have better strength in the attacking areas and got rid of the players that weren't playing or not good enough have gone. Plus the main attacking players are all interchangeable.

I would have liked another right back but there is Kenny, Godfrey and Holgate that can all play there as second fiddle.

As for the CB's they again are all very capable and there is 4 or 5 we can choose from. I'm happy with what we've got.
