Absolutely.
We won't go down, but the current squad would be lower mid table in my opinion. A few injuries, and it's very limited.
But we won't play the season with this squad for 46 games, we will make additions. But whether they will be of the quality and quantity to turn us into top 6...
Absolutely.
But the likes of 'Boro, Wigan, Norwich, Cardiff, Fulham etc have the vast majority of their business done. By the end of the window, we'll be 5 games into the season. That's a pretty big head start for all those sides, who already seem to have far more strength in depth anyway.
