Maybe you should rewatch last season. 10 points and 16 goals away in the entire run. We are such a shambles even lamps is saying dont expect miracles.. No, we dont expect miracles but a major lifesaving operation. if not, and with just burnley signings, we are doomed. Period.
Yes. Burnley had 2 of the 8 ways I think we’re superior to most teams starting elevens which I guess is why they finished below us but closer to us then Norwich and Watford.
Honestly, I have seen us n worse positions.
The players brought in have been sensible so far. They are addressing areas of need. It may be unspectacular, but it is solid sensible stuff.
We will be better than last season I’m sure.
What would you say that preferred system is, and who are the players we’ve signed who you would say suit it? I’m not saying you’re wrong, I’m just still a bit unsure of what it is we’re actually planning to and feel like some of the signings/links have the hallmarks of bringing people in because we can, rather than because they’re exactly what we want.

Just hoping Fronk puts a 10 metre exclusion zone around the new signings from our medical team!!
Exactly. We will be ten points better if we avoid last seasons injury crisis.
I feel like Frank definitely wants a 523 like we saw against Blackpool.
I think Paterson is promising as a wing back more so than a full back
I think Tarkowski suits a 3 as a ball playing defender
I think Dele fits a forward 3 but definitely not conventional midfielder
I think McNeil will work well in a forward 3 as he’ll be able to work hard and press from the front and come inside to pass short, not just whip in crosses
Remains to be seen how it all works out of course!

Would love Terrier but sadly we're skint. Lad is dynamic and scores goals the perfect Ritchie replacement.
Hey Liverpool won stuff without having a midfield, so maybe it's not the end of the world?
Gana would at least tackle people and Barkley can occasionally be creative
Not exactly a thrilling line-up, but if it were well drilled and everyone did their job then we could probably scrape to safety
Though the Steelester may have gone overboard, on paper that looks like a decent coaching squad

We desperately need a forward before end of August we cant go with what we have , letting Simms go out on loan must mean they have something planned

you would think so ? a couple of months ago i was pinning my hopes on Simms stepping up which would`ve solved two birds with one stone.

I hope so , we scored about 45ish goals last season and have lost 10 with Ritchie going , we are pinning are hopes on Lewin staying fit and scoring regularly, Rondon as his replacement and or Dele stepping up and replacing Ritchie's goals, the midfield at present offers little or no goal threat and neither does the defense on a regular basis unless Tarks turns out to be another Mountfield, we need if we are going to be comfortable mid table say 55-60 goals if we can keep goals conceded down
