Leicester will, as predicted, walk this league.

Ipswich started well and still have easy games to come too.

Far too early to say that - they haven't looked good in their games.

Look at the table after 10 games last season - Norwich, Reading & QPR were in the top six and us & Boro were in the bottom 3

As someone who managed them on FM for a laugh, I am shocked at the state of their starting XI. Very reliant on old lags Bannan, Windass and Gregory. Patterson at RB and now RM-he's a ST FFS! And of course they have foolishly lost the manager who got them promoted.

Didn't Moore suddenly ask for shit loads of money though on his new contract or something? The chairman came out & explained it - also I'm sure he actually resigned too

I think he might have asked for a better deal, but the Sheff Wed owner is exaggerating what he tried to claim

Just to be a Debbie downer: almost identical first two away results. 1-1 and a one goal loss after being ahead.

Away to Leicester who look like doing a Burnley and Swansea though. And it could so easily have been a better result in both games.

4 points in the first 3 games against sides that should be in contention for playoffs minimum isn't too shabby.

Leicester soton Norwich look like biggest rivals to autos. Leeds could still be a factor too but those 3 look very good.

Let's start to talk about your predictions at half way point. Table means nothing right now.

QPR were top 6 end of October last year. And we were near bottom.

It's a very long season.

Norwich looked like world beaters twice when they tonked us last season. Way too early to make any predictions.

Strange move all round. Forest spent almost the same amount on Nico Williams who is no better.

Hull signing Philogene-Bidace and Keinan Davis from Villa. They’ve had a good window.

Whilst some of these premier loans will work out for championship clubs, not all will - remember the lad we had from palace last year?
Happy we have made some permanent signings.

Hull definitely a dark horse for me, although I've never understood any hype around Keinan Davis. 25 now and always looked average to me.

Doesn’t really get goals either. His record is poor

There's definitely a player in there, he was excellent at Forest & one of the key reasons they got promoted. Arguably the standout in a poor season for Watford too. Needs to be more consistent with his goal output for sure but, similar to some of our pickups, he has all the attributes you'd look for. I'd certainly have backed MR to get him firing. £1m is an absolute steal, Villa should have cashed in after his loan at Forest when his stock was at its highest.

I know that hence why I said Forest spent the nearly same amount, rather than spent the fee.
