I think this is a team that would comfortably sit top half in our league. It’s the kind of test we will be facing week in week out next season.
Its going to be a tough season.
I have a season ticket but it also says im on the waiting list. Must be a system glitch but I wonder if there are more situations like this and it it’s making the waiting list look larger than it really is...
It is. But when fans don’t like a player any alternative feels like a better option.
I don’t think Hourihane is a defensive midfield but I’d understand if he started against Spurs.
However Nakambe after 2 weeks training and one preseason game will probably be ready to start.
I don’t class anything said on that page as racism.
Getting back on topic. If we are in for Axel maybe we will be looking to loan out Konsa for a year?
Not picking on you mate, this is a just a post in general but relates to what you said.
I really think a lot of fans forget how common injuries to key players happen over a season.
So many times I see fans ask why we want to buy x when y is good enough. Then when y gets injured and we have to play a youngster not good enough or a player out of position fans complain about us not signing x!
We need two strong players in every position.
I reckon Bruce will play 3 at the back with Axel part of it. They have loads of centre halves. He had success with Hull playing that way.
Plus didn’t he try it with us a few times too?
Even then a couple of injuries and we’d be f**ked.
Our average spend for each player is about 13m which is still a lot of money in my opinion. It’s not like we’ve gone for quantity over quaility.
