I think if you have a look at the squads of actual title contenders it becomes clear as to why. I do believe we have a manager who is capable of winning the title however. With a smart and aggressive window we can go from a 4-8th squad to a 3rd - 6th squad. You have to consolidate the position imo. We can agree to disagree. I actually think our work so far indicates we are going for it. I think the Trafford transfer is one you do from a position of power. I don’t think he comes in and takes the shirt straight away unless Pope is sold. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree we have to go for it, I just think no matter what we feasibly do we won't be challenging for the title. But let's park that, it's all good to disagree on such points. If we manage to bring in Say Elanga, João Pedro, Trafford and a top centre half consider me happy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had Sandro optimised from the start it’s a 75+ point season for us. Our problem is that lack of depth. Id be happy with those transfers + a CM Howe would play ahead of changing formations due to unavailability of 2 players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted yesterday at 09:56 Share Posted yesterday at 09:56 (edited) ^ I do agree and have said this for ages that the biggest missing piece for is our 4th CM (who can play as an 8 or 6) isn’t an older head who offers the experience to slot in and play meaningful minutes. I do not think it needs to be some flashy 23 year old attacker; I think it needs to be a relatively unexciting name or a player who’s best days are past him but is a capable player when called upon. From an experience standpoint point - I believe in Dan Burn we have that at CB (who actually is a class CB and an incredible leader for us), and at least a few seasons ago, we had that in Callum Wilson (great leader, greater striker at that time). Trippier fails into this bucket. Edited yesterday at 09:58 by Kanj Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted yesterday at 10:08 Share Posted yesterday at 10:08 (edited) 3 hours ago, The College Dropout said: Fully fit we can be brilliant. Shown this time and again. Beat full strength first and second to win the cup. 2 maybe 3 into the first team is fine. It’s the depth we lack. Particularly in the front 6. If we get the players we want/need - the first team is mostly of a great age. We were arguably a fully-fit Isak in those last 2 games away from finishing 2nd last season. We're very close. More quality and depth and we'll be fucking brilliant. I know others are strengthening too but I think Howe gives us an edge on a lot of the Head Coaches at the top as well.

Ornstein saying if he's to leave Brentford he wants us and only us. I know they have a year option but they're running the risk of losing him for a lot less next summer. If we do go higher I hope it's just performance add ons or else I'd want us to be patient and wait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
