We’re gonna get there lads. In 4 years our team has changed beyond belief. From Gayle to Isak then Woltemade. From Shelvey to Tonali. From Ritchie to Gordon/Elanga imagine in 4 more years? I genuinely believe we’re gonna be challenging the top. if someone said to me.. would you be happier with the squad in May or the squad now, I’d pick now alllll day long.
Absolutely, steady improvement, it just always feels like we could just go that bit further. With a stronger exec team in place hopefully we’ll manage future windows better.
I'm going to go against the norm here. Fair play to Jamie Reuben and to Andy Howe and Steve Nickson. With no director of football, no CEO (Eales has been away all summer) and this absolute ****efest hanging over the club all summer. With little to no experience they've managed to navigate us through this and get deals done. Time for everybody to get heads down and start the season with a bang once play ressumes. Statistically we've been at out weakest from 65 mins onwards in games for last 2 season (most goals against). I'd suggest that's down to a combination of tiring legs and lack of quality on the bench. This summer should go some ways to improving that. Just need to hope Wissa can hit the ground running and Woltemade can start banging them in too. Not a fan of winter window so would rather we just keep powder dry till summer unless something really good comes up.
