Too much offence not enough defence.

Still a very young team they need time to develop
Half your offence and most your defence is under the age of 25.
The fact that Thompson is one of the older guys on the squad says a lot.

I’d say give it 2 more years.

Quoting: Dekes

Those are pretty much my thoughts, as well. I just didn't want to presume to tell them about their own team. So, you are more bold than I. haha
