Some transfer business still to be done obviously but some pretty wild predictions on how we will go already so how about folk put them here. At this stage 8-10 for me.
Like last season for me, a "comfortable" season nowhere near the bottom 3. Challenging for top 8 would be a bonus.
I'd want us to be challenging for sixth but will happily take finishing between 6th and 10th - anything else would be a disappointment and I'd love us to surprise again and be 'troubling' the 4th spot
Play to our strengths, round pegs, round holes, which I think Shakey will do, have a good plan B & C and we can be top 6. Obviously I'll wait for Champions of England to tell us precisely where we'll finish before placing any bets
Realistically, I fancy us to finish around 8th, which I'd be pretty happy with. Anything higher would be magnificent Oh and lets throw in a decent cup run too for good measure. FA Cup Semis/Final and a trip to Wembley again. Not asking for much am I !!!
We might get Iheanacho..... but if you mean Siggy for our 2nd big target, forget that one. 5th would be dreamland stuff again. like your thinking Mick. Good lad
Do you think he'll stay at Swansea or go to Everton? Personally I think if we don't pay £50m then he'll stay at Swansea because I don't think Everton will, I mean we've outbid them so far so why won't we again? The Lukaku money only amounts to what we got from the CL so that doesn't make a difference and there's no substance to any of the rumours that he wants to join Everton. He speaks to nobody so how that's come about is a mystery, well it's not it's most likely just bullshit. I don't think he's arsed about leaving Swansea to be honest but I reckon if we talk to him we could convince him to join. Even if there is some truth in his wish to join Everton I still reckon we could convince him because we are going places and Everton are nothing special and not a more attractive club to join, not anymore. Yeah they have the EL which they will most likely get knocked out of early like last time, I don't expect them to do much so he's not much to miss out on and he can wait a year for the CL instead ha ha
If you had asked me a couple of weeks ago mate, I would have said that I think he would stay at Swansea, but after developments that he didn't fly out with the rest of their squad for their pre season tour as he " wasn't in the right frame of mind" pretty much tells its own story . He has had his head turned basically. I think. If Everton stump up 45m plus add ons the deal will be done. I don't think. We will go in for another bid. 40m plus add on I believe from is wasn't enough so we walked away most likely . Hopefully the Iheanacho deal will be tied up asap.
