We just need to win, don't think we can rely on anyone for anything. If we do win then i can see a world we get 5th, Preston won't be easy for Bristol City and bizarrely have lost less games than our opponents. Could see them grinding out a draw in their time of need which would probably be...

Not even close.

Where do people Wright goes for the money we'd want? Used to think Prem teams would be looking but on reflection i'm not sure, i think the other 2 are more likely to attract Prem interest. Wright gives me Bundesliga vibes.

Which fringe players you thinking will be moved on? @Jimmy87 suggested we might be prepared to pack up a few of them a while back.

Tbh I think the reality is we sell the fringe and one of the above. Could give us a pretty beefy kitty along with the Gyok funds.

Rather gather some funds by selling the likes of BTA, Simms, Eccles. Spend out on 2 or 3 and just be smarter in the free transfer market with the rest.

Hmmm leaning towards MvE. I actually think he's 'better' than Wright and would think he'll have a better career, but as you say I think goals are harder to replace. Either way, I certainly wouldn't want to lose Rudoni.

I'm sure I'll be shitting it by then. Although as I've mentioned before, I completely wrote us off since Dovin went down and I've been surprisingly chill since.

Difficult to be extremely confident given our keeper situation and we are still completely in the dark on other players who may or may not be fit, but I do think we win this. Not that nervous... yet.

I'd be more confident of EMC stepping up to get that many than i would Simms atm. The wingers do get plenty of stick on here, some of it fair, some of it unfair, but there's a reason Simms is attracting more atm... Simms Games: 42 Minutes: 2218 Goals: 6 Assists:2 Mason-Clarke Games: 30...

No i agree, i agree with Shmmeee on what we'd need to challenge top 3 but i don't think we will and i don't think Lampard will be expected to. He'll be expected to get us finishing regularly in the play offs with the hope of winning them at some point.

Yes they are.

Does it matter if we looked great though? Burnley and Sheffield United are a horrible watch and they make up 2 of the top 3. I think Doug has surprised most people 2 summers in a row with how much backing he's given for transfers, even again in Jan for Grimes. I'm hoping we'll get the Gyok...

We haven't argued for a while :LOL: but i think your mind is made up from the moment Robins got the boot tbf, there's a couple of others who are similar. Honestly i'm finding it hard to believe anyone could say he hasn't done a good job up to this point. If he's well backed in the summer and his...

I'd move Simms on personally and try again.

He's not been here long enough to break his games into 3 separate sets of results, the results are what they are. We were way off it and he's put us back into contention. It's not even his team so you can't ask for more really. Think its more likely we've dropped off a bit due to injury...

I cba to work it out, what's ppg since Lampard came in? Doesn't seem fair to use the results at the start of the season to judge where we are at under the new manager.

Wengers invincibles is a very good shout, that was my favourite team to watch personally. Just thinking about Henry, Pires and Ljungberg is making my trousers twitch.

Yeh agree, i only saw the good stuff so it wasn't that bad.

The season we were dubbed 'the entertainers' at home we won zero games away from home i believe, so not quite that bad.
