so you think we are strong enough to challenge for promotion?

I didn't say that, but I think our squad is strong enough now that someone getting flustered and demanding the people who were relaxed about our squad now justify our inaction is a bit over the top.
 
McGregor
Aina - Dawson - Hector - Henry
Stewart - Clucas
Kent - Henriksen - Grosicki
Hernandez

Is quite a strong starting XI if we can muster that.
 
Absolutely no ****ing chance. We are miles behind Reading, Wednesday, Boro, Villa. Too many changes to the starting 11 - nowhere near enough goals in the team.

I don't agree, I think there's plenty of goals in it, the issue is in keeping clean sheets which I think we'll struggle to do. I don't think Top 6 is out of the question but it'll be a push from the outside not tracking all season with a push for top 2.

Given we haven't signed 3 of the players in your starting 11. One is injured and one wants to move on. You can take 5 players out straight away.
 
I'm hoping one of the loan spots is reserved for Musa.

All these new players coming in and no pre season friendlies to settle them into the side. Great planning by our utter **** up of a club. See Darnbrough appointed his 'mate' who has followed him around 3 times and been equally as ****.

Epic.


Ha ha,
you couldn't write it... oh you just did!

We've barely conceded in preseason friendlies, yet you think conceding goals will be an issue? We've also barely had a threat or sniff at a goal in pre season, yet you think scoring goals won't be an issue?

We've plenty of goals. Hernandez got 20 odd last time round, Campbell has spent two half seasons in this division and hit double figures both times. This is probably the strongest strike force I can remember us having with those pair. What a bizarre comment to make.

It depends who we can get in in defence, but the rest of the team currently looks good enough to challenge at the top.

Lenihan Dawson Hector Aina
Clucas Stewart
Bowen Evandro Henricksen
Hernandez

Would also be a strong XI and includes only players we've signed or are imminently signing.
 
Henriksen.

Aside from the other 4 that we either haven't signed or want to leave.

Sitting out of a friendly =/= being injured. It was precautionary from the sounds of things.

I can see today is a pessimistic day so I'll leave it there, but it's a bit of odd timing given we're finally strengthening our biggest weaknesses.

There is a big key factor here.

Pre-season friendlies.
