My opinion.
Goalkeepers - Stronger, due to the fact we have two expereinced keepers and Ruddy looks better than Smith
Defence - The same, as the emergence of Hutchison has replaced McLean, but if this Frenchman is decent then we will be in a stronger position
Midfield - Much stronger. Coke, Forbes, Hateley etc have given us much more options in midfield.
Attack - Weaker as I doubt we have a striker who can bag 20 a season like Clarky did, but maybe Sutton can step up to the plate.
So overall I would say we look a stronger side. We certainly have a lot more options to change things around and rotate the squad.
