They've lost all their best players, they've lost their manager, they've appointed a shite manager to replace him and they have no money. I genuinely think this is the year. Fingers crossed. They're so desperate their biggest close-season coup is getting JukiDonkee to sign a new contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Hate to say it, but looks like they're bringing in a few good players, our old youth product Crowley who had been doing well in The Eredivisie, Jake Clarke-Salter England U21 captain from Chelsea, who was set to go to Leeds but Lampard put a stop to it, they're now reportedly on the verge of signing Ivan Sunjic, Croatia's U23 captain, and rated as one of their best young players, they're also heavily linked to Bright Enobakhare.

They may be good players but they want to play possession based attacking football, adding those players still means they have 6 cloggers in the team, and don't have a replacement for Adams and his 20+ goals yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 I actually saw an interview with Craig Gardner after they beat Swindon 6-1 the other day at their training ground, and talk about getting carried away, he was talking about how they're going to try and play there way out of the division.

Wasn't Crowley sent back early from his loan spells when he was still at Arsenal, will see if he's matured since then with his spell in Holland. Clarke-Salter didn't impress me at all in under 21 euros and was at Sunderland in 2018, think he played six games and was sent off twice. Michael Morrison will be big miss for them imo, underrated CB at championship level. Surely above all else they need a striker? Big Juke actually had a really good season but he still only just got above double figures and Issac Vassell had that major injury. That's the area which to improve significantly otherwise it will be somewhere in the bottom six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Crowley has been doing well in Holland by all accounts, but might be a different story trying to play in a team that aren't used to playing the kind of football that gets the best out of a player like him. Clarke-Salter, was on loan at Sunderland, and from what I've seen they weren't very impressed with him at all. The shocking one is Sunjic highly rated and been linked to much better clubs, apparently going to cost them £6m, spending like that they could find themselves in a position where if they don't go up, they'll be back in trouble with FFP. They've lost their manager, captain, top goal scorer, and most creative player, and a few other first teamers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all (New signings) need to fire and hit the ground running for the whole season with no injuries or suspensions. They all need to be round pegs in round holes. That's all fine and dandy but, they haven't met the fans yet or seen the sty 20 % full in all it's glory. They haven't had the "What have I done" moment yet, they will and it will make them s*** at football.
