With the right signings they could challenge for 4th, but probably won't beat Liverpool or Arsenal to it. I think Arsenal will be better than people are expecting next season, but Spurs could easily finish above Liverpool IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's that far fetched to say if we manage to hold on to our key players and bring in 2 quality strikers we COULD challenge. Nobody did say that, though.

Guest ykmkmdd Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 OK, all this Eagles hate made me go all stat-checking on your asses - he scored 15 goals and made 10 assists last season - that's decent by anyone's standards, even in the Championship! http://soccernet.espn.go.com/player/_/id/39381/chris-eagles?cc=5739 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 There's little inbetween Larsson and Eagles. Both top 4 cast offs with a bit of quality on the ball but overall their level is somewhere between top end Championship and bottom end Premier League.

Oakie Doke Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I think Eagles is one of those players who would flourish if there was a division between the Premier Leage and the Championship. Him and Routledge would battle it out for Player of the Month awards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 What's the craic with Tevez and his family? Has he actually split up from the mother of his children? Or is it simply a case of they've refused to move abroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jukeboxromeo Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Meh, Eagles and Mears will be decent squad players, certainly better than the players they're replacing. Considering they're only costing slightly more than for what Taylor went for, it's good business. At least we've got depth in midfield now, unlike the end of last season when we had to play a left-back and striker there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been a shadow of the player he was since he got glandular fever last year. Idiot fans booing him didn't really help his confidence either.

He got glandular fever towards the end of his first season with us and never really recovered his form after that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends whether we can get a striker in really. Our strike force is Davies, Klasnic and Robbie Blake at the moment! If we do, then we can push for a top-half finish, I reckon. If we don't, then probably lower mid-table. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
