You'll need a lot of depth scoring to survive, and I think you have some potential for that. But a lot will depend on how for example Girdlestone can live up to the big investment, or if Veyhe and Cherkasov can contribute on the flats, or what Vakoc still has in the tank. I think it will be a fight for survival as you mention, but then again, you vastly over performed expectations last year, too, so who knows I've got my fingers crossed for you!

Even more reasons for me to cheer on this team, now that Buitrago has joined the crew

Agree with others that the swap between Halvorsen and Buitrago might end up costing you this season. Feels like it might your team from mid-table down into the relegation fight just because of the redundancy. But with good depth you have a chance to stay up, and hopefully fits your long term goals!

Interesting setup, as LLS said I would've kept Halvorsen in this setup. You got a great clmbing setup with Min and I really like Girdlestone, but could you have focused a bit too much? Ariesen and Berckmoes not among the strongest cobblers and while I rate Zingle as a premium leadout, he is a premium leadout without a sprinter

I share the fears of the others, I see you finishing a good bit below last season and probably in the danger zone (although I thought so last season as well, so it doesn't have to mean anything ).

I would hope Buitrago scores you more than the 117 expected points. The total of 2192 points usually puts a team right around the relegation line.
