Some optimism...

[Jacko93]

I'm looking forward to seeing more of Cleverley. I like the way he receives the ball, and opens himself up to shift the ball, I like that his first look is almost always forwards. His 5 yard pass only happens if the forward pass isn't on. That's a positive thing.

To counteract that though, we don't currently have the striker with the movement to take advantage. (apart from Naismith, who'd be better off not being there and getting in the way)

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

right now we are fifth in the league. Alphabetically!
Suppose Bournmouth replaced Burnley above us - I am sure someone will know if this is our highest starting position - it certainly feels like it!

I'm looking forward to seeing how young Garbutt gets on out on loan! Keeping him on a big healthy contract and sending him to Fulham was nicely done.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Touch wood we'll keep all of our top players.

Other clubs are spending big bucks because they have rubbish squads to begin with. We have ace players who just had an off-season.

This.

I also don't feel that the same ace players were the sole reason either to be fair.

Exactly, we have the best manager in the world too. I like this thread, it's like Ye Olde GOT.

We're by far the greatest team
that the world has ever seen!''

 

[Pat's Van]

we've got players like Baines, Stones, Coleman, Jagielka, Barkley, Deulofeu, Mirallas, McCarthy and Lukaku that would walk into most sides into the league

and it's possible some of them could do just that before the end of the window

Kone will probably score at least one goal this season. Hilarity will ensue.

 

[hopleaf]

Stones will remain a blue!

 

[roydo]

Sticking my neck out here.

Cups. Just have a feeling.

And a planning application at the turn of the year..........

I think Besic will kick on. I think Cleverley will continue to impress. I think Rom will score 20 league goals.

And I think one of the Sky 4 wont finish in the top 4. City probably. Or United.

Currently unbeaten in the league.

True. And there will be a guaranteed new blue by this time tomorrow too!
