Nothing wrong with what you’ve said mate, I hope you are right. Pre window, I thought we’d spend around £100m and look to bring in 5 £20m players with a couple of loans. I thought the likes of patto, Ballard, cirkin, Neil, mundle, mayenda would be very likely to be starting most games.Yes its brutal, but i do believe some of them can and will step up.
Not every player in the Premier league is miles better than our squad from last year.
Again just my opinion and apologies for being optimistic, I dont need and the forum doesnt need any in depth reasons why my opinion is wrong
After how we’ve gone about the window so far, my expectations have shifted a bit and now I don’t think anyone’s place is safe. Not because I don’t believe in the lads to step up, just because the club clearly don’t want to make up the numbers and want to have some long term success. They want a competitive environment.
It’s a ruthless business, last seasons group will go down in history regardless of what happens. I hope a few them still have some more to write yet.
