As a god's honest view as a fan from another club I don't think you have the strongest starting 11 in this division by ****ing miles. I'd have you down for play-offs currently.

I agree on the first bit about the squad - disagree on the second.
Can't see us doing better than mid table (with a relegation threat around jan - feb)

It's very useful as a quick catch-up and much appreciated; thanks, OLM. <ok>

Really??

I think it does depend on how many stay at the club but I don't think you'll have the same issues with scoring goals in this division with the players you've got compared to the prem.
 
ODUBAJO IN LIMBO
The deal to bring Brentford's Moses Odubajo and Andre Gray to Hull City is becoming more complicated by the minute.
Hull have triggered the £3.5m release clause in Odubajo’s contract and the player has had his medical and agreed a three year contract.
However, the deal has yet to be complete as Hull want to do a double deal worth a combined £9m which would see Andre Gray go to the KC Stadium as well.
Meanwhile, just to add another angle to the story, an unnamed Premier League club has matched Odubajo's release clause :angry:

Yeah, with the speed this thread moves, that page is crucial.

The problem wasn't the players, it was Steve Bruce.

I don't think we'll be that bad though, so long as we don't lose any more, we have the strongest squad by an absolute ****ing mile.

Even with the handicap we have having Steve Bruce in charge we should still piss the league with 100+ points.

It's all opinions mate, and I'm obviously biased but if you was to go player to player (on paper) in every position in a 4-4-2 I honestly think you would struggle to find a stronger starting 11 than ours. However that's on paper, and as well all know games aren't won on paper. Last season showed us that. As an example look at mcgregor, after his first season, apart from a few small mistakes he looked for all intents and purposes a solid mid table prem keeper. If the players we have play at their best then (all bias aside) we should take the league at a canter. If they show the same commitment and desire as last year, coupled with the same tactics then we could honestly be facing another relegation battle

I know that's tongue in cheek but put it this way..... If we had a brand new manager and we had just assembled the squad we have now....
