Forget Westwood, won’t feature again here. We need players that can play 35 games+ a season...How many did Hooper Abdi and Lee play last season? Answers on a very small postcard..

Guest Jack the Hat Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 No one to be scared of in this league. If we are still there by xmas we should have players back from injury playing regularly. Hooper and lee would be awesome! Bannan is a big factor. Other midfielders need to step up to the plate. Reach needs to step up or step down and if abdi or josh or even Lee become key players we should be in good shape. There are still big questions in both defence and midfield but there are options and jos will work out the best ones. We are the dark horses this season for sure.

DuttyTeabags Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Get Onomah in for Pessy, Reach left, Joao spearhead with FF right of the three Hoops in behind with Bannan and Onomah behind . Be interesting to see what Hector could bring alongside Thornily - in his interview he discusses bringing ball out of the back... Potential top 3...if we brought Westwood back :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quist Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Mid table but, If players start to believe in themselves and gain confidence, one of our strikers can start to score goals regularly Kieran Lee returns from injury and gets back to his best, Onomah can play with promise he has suggested in past Who knows consistency is key in this league and Jos has a knack of getting teams to grind out results. Yesterday was a success we got back into a game we had no right to do so. We have seen several players performance improve dramatically under Jos Joao, Nuhiu, Matias and Bannan is the latest player to start playing at a level higher than he has done previously, he was always capable of the sublime moment but he is now delivering performances at a consistently high level. I get the feeling when FF returns we may see something special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I think if you brought the 2 loan players in the team together with FF and Hooper we have a good chance to get in the top 6. We are far from the finished article but this is a weak league this year and again it’s up for grabs. However, the defence concerns me. Hector needs to come into the defence for his presence. He looked a good player when he came on yesterday. Unfortunately, Thorniley may be the one to be sacrificed. Palmer is basic, Penney is still developing and we have a young keeper. We don’t look like we will keep clean sheets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortlandOwl Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 When you look at some of the teams above us I reckon we could sneak into the playoffs. The Championship seems more open this season, no team like Wolves to run away with it. I mean come on Leeds top FFS !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asteener1867 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I still don't know Stoke are the best team to come to Hillsborough, but how good are they? Sunderland looked decent at home last year, look what happened to them. We got cut apart first 20 minutes, that was worrying, the reliance on Bannan is worrying, the fact that Jos recognises that, and the fact theres little he can do about it is obviously worrying him, which in turn further worries me.... and now...Ive worried you...

fred mciver Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 6th, with Westy and Fessi joining Bannon to power us there. Higher , if Hector hits Reading form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookone Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I still think top 10 with a chance of squeezing into the top 6. Before yesterday’s match we were top on form over the past 15 League matches - Jos is doing far better than some fans would have us believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southie_Owl Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 When we look back in May I’m sure drawing at home to Stoke will be seen as a good result. In fact I feel it’s only the draw against Hull that has been really bad this season If we are to be a top 6 side I feel we need 4 points from the next 2 games. Forest’s line up doesn’t look as strong as Stoke, so we have a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Mid table providing we don't lose BB or FF for any prolonged periods. Get a fit Hooper back and I'd go as far as 9th or 10th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueOwl Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) Between 12th-6th depending on selection, fitness & availability of the likes of Hooper, Lee with FF, Joao, & Onomah clicking, keeping Bannan fit for 48 games and figuring out what on earth to do with Reach.

Stoop Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I would imagine that we’ll finish somewhere about where we are now Unfortunately this means that the financial sh*tstorm will then be upon us next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
