It’s becoming apparently that Ben Knapper is falling short

We are signing players that are not adequately replacing the players who have departed.
Also players have been signed (Crnac, Schwartau) where there was no obvious gap in the team, yet blatantly obvious gaps (centre forward, defensive midfield) have been left gaping.
If the new Czech guy repeats the pattern of slow progression and limited impact then Knapper needs his P45!
