I voted for 19 of them. That makes us 6 short.

Voted for Dunk & Knockaert, post poll again at Xmas.
Ten short, and I thought I was being generous

Same here, That is how many players I said that are required so glad to see it makes sense.
Bit of a difficult question really. I would say all of them are good enough to at least play a bit-part, but if you had 25 that were only good enough to play a bit-part then the whole squad obviously wouldn't be good enough. However, to answer your question, all of them (but not sure I can be arsed to tick them all).

Whoever excluded Bruno: be aware I will track you down.

I put 20 but it's almost impossible to know. If you look at the player who is the 25th squad player at a lot of bottom half Premier League teams, I would say most of ours would be better. The issue is the first 11 at the moment, not the squad members.
20 votes for the squad places.
Which means 5 spaces unfilled + an U21 or two to come in.
Rob Hunt may consider himself unlucky to not be in the poll, assuming he's staying, and may be an outside bet for the 9th choice defender role if we only bring 1 in.

Won't know till we see them in action, I hope after first couple of months, there would be 18-19 of those listed good enough, but for me now, I'm only 80% sure Dunk & AK are but might be wrong about them.

Good poll. Will give a descending 'confidence level' for the squad.

Sorry, are you saying our best players are better than the 'worst' in some other teams? Hardly reassuring, is it?

No, I'm saying most of the above list would be better. Yes, by implication that would include the best (but I clearly didn't quantify how much better) but also some who people on here don't rate (for example Skalak)

Squad wise 1st season in PL you would have to say a fair number would be useful to the squad and have a part to play
I would say 20 of them but would also say 5 or 6 new signings still needed and you would be looking at them to be in the match day 18 at least if not starting 11

He's in interesting one - it might be that he looks better in the Prem than the Championship. One thing is almost certain, most of our promotion squad will get a chance this season.
