One For The Road Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 48 minutes ago, jim said: I actually think they will finish above us this season. I just have no faith in the current regime and I think candleface will get them playing. I couldn't actually give a toss about where they finish tbh. However, if they DO finish above us then it'll be because we have finished in the bottom half, and that will be a total disaster given what we have spent on this squad.

Demitri_C Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I really did think they would beat reading tbh, if they could not motivate their new players at a full house sty and with the easy fixtures they had I think they could finish between 8th and 14th. Not going down no chance. but like I said they have awful lot of Liam's so if they fail to go up it's a complete rebuild job again. Will candleface want to do that again?

He has been moaning about the players not being good enough so now he has no excuses.

If they lose their next few games i think he will be gone I think he'll walk if they are near the bottom by Christmas. He won't walk after next two games, Norwich & Leeds away will be tough anyways but he wouldn't quit then although I do think the fans will start getting on his back.

choffer Posted August 30, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted August 30, 2017 19 hours ago, HanoiVillan said: He's one of their better players, but the manager wants to sell him as he's in the last year of contract and won't renew. It's not a terrible signing. Couple of clarifications - The manager doesn't decide who gets sold or otherwise at Brentford. They have a very clear remit for all outgoing transfers - if an acceptable bid is made and the player wants to go, he goes. Also, it's not that he won't renew, it's that Brentford's wage structure is limiting. He thinks he can earn more elsewhere (which appears to be the case) and that's why he's going. So actually, you're probably right - he won't renew under the terms currently on the table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean they'll finish higher than us, or that relative to expectations they'll have done better than us? Because the second I could kind of see the logic behind. but not the first. We'll finish above them (and, fwiw, seeing as Redknapp has set expectations as top 6, the second scenario probably won't happen either) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I cant comment on that yet as i have no idea how all these players will perform as a team. They could be excellent indivdual players but play shit as a team or just gel straight away. The thing with redknapps signings alot of them are young will they have the leaders there with the experience to handle the pressures of this league?

One thing you do know is that if it does go wrong it won't be his fault and if it goes even moderately well he'll be telling everyone he's performed a miracle.

TrentVilla Posted August 30, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 30, 2017 He has signed what, 9 or 10 players now? That is going to be very interesting to see how they gel. If the come together quickly it's going to put more pressure on Bruce, if they don't well... where is the popcorn? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
