Individualy a lot of our players have about the same level of ability but they're still well above average Premier League players and it's the ammount of them that gives us strength in depth. If we sell too many of them we'll find ourselves struggling to put out a decent side in the cups which happened under Redknapp at times and that would be a step back.
What we need to do is gradually keep improving the squad but make sure we don't weaken ourselves in the short term. It's probably going to take a while to do it the right way on our budget so patience and understanding from our fans is going to be vital. We're not City or Chelsea who can go and sign 3 or 4 world class players in one swoop, we need to be clever so the investment in youth and the new stadium are a good start.
I don't think we should be selling. We need the depth. My post is about whether the players not involved at Spam are any better than those that played barring a two or three.
Maybe we can let a couple go but we need the remainder.
