On paper we're a good team

Worrying thing is, we aren't. People like to hype our players but...

Wisdom, Shinnie, Lawrence, Waghorn, Holmes, Davies, Rooney etc etc

Johnny Russell, Chris Martin, Jeff Hendrick, Craig Bryson, Will Hughes, Richard Keogh, Tom Ince... these are good standard Champ players (or above in 2 cases). This current bunch isn't even close.

absolutely right. The squad on paper is absolute rubbish, the sooner people realise this the better - it should have been realised last season. It was obvious we would be in trouble with our recruitment (or lack of it) over the summer. So many players massively overrated, the rest of the league laughs at us.

Why are we in the only club to rely so heavily on unproven young players (that arent good enough)

Far from it, the fact is, if we had amazing players with not so great management we wouldn't be struggling as badly as we are at the moment. Even if we had the perfect tactics and coaching you can't stop certain players being poo.

If we had decent players i wouldn't worry about relegation. 

There are a huge bunch of passive pedestrians. I mean a CB that don't jump?! A bunch of DM's the don't defend! Attacking players that don't do anything with the ball except run around with it for 10 seconds.

Football hipsters dream. Play pretty patterns without ever threatening to do anything. Shambolic.

but it is true. you cannot rely on young players, we have too many and their performances are proving why they shouldnt be involved. we are in a relegation scrap, you cannot afford to carry players.

Sorry, which young players are being carried? Knight and Buchanan have been arguably our best players the whole season, Sibley improved us, Bird was okay tonight. The older players are the ones that want to look at themselves. Don't repeat tired old cliches that have been proven wrong before.
