Discussing this with a mate of mine today, we agreed that we look perilously short in the full-back cover.
Luke O'Brien can cover LB, but is good enough or ready? And if Arnison plays poor or gets injured/suspended.. there is no cover there at all. Which also means no-one pushing him out of the side if he plays badly.
However, one pleasing thing is we have used no loan signings whatsoever for the first time in God knows how long. Which means later in the season they can be used more effectively perhaps, once we know where we are lacking when the season is in full swing.
