Why does there need to be an excuse? You've said multiple times this squad isn't good enough to challenge for Europe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entitlement and demands of instant success all wrapped up in 1 post. I'm so glad, this attitude is in the vast minority of our fanbase. We'd be a horrible lot if it wasn't.

Yeah but they put loads of bids in on deadline day, so that automatically makes them ambitious and not prepared to just stand still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jas10 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Right then lads…the window is over, we’ve signed some quality players. Now is the time to back the manager and players, to have faith in the club, to look forwards with excitement, enthusiasm and positivity. To sit back and try to enjoy the ride. Who’s with me? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyh29 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) Our business means we should end the season putting some more daylight between us an the likes of Burnley , Southampton etc We should be looking at Everton, Leeds and Arsenal as teams we can finish above this season in our bid to becoming a top half team Just don't think we did enough to close the gap on the likes of Spurs and Leicester and to an extent West Ham who look like they had a decent window time will tell I guess Edited August 31, 2021 by tonyh29 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the last paragraph I'm not sure how realistic it was to expect that. Those teams are in a much stronger position. However I feel we will be getting closer over the next few seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He showed last year that he's good when called upon in certain situations. Don't think he'll ever threaten as a permanent starter though. Which is fine. He cost what, 11m?

I think Spurs and Leicester are currently a bridge too far though. They have multiple world class players, and we just sold 1 of the 2 we had and will be missing the other for a not insignificant amount this season.

villan501 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 OK we did great in this window with signings But that huge hole in our midfield hasn't been fixed and for me that spells trouble. I'm not saying we will be relegated but our midfield dosnt have the enforcer we required. I think in a fair few games our midfield will invite pressure due to inability to get what we actually needed. We always want more but im content with the great work the staff did, but hope the midfield holds up from.a defensive point of view. UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
