S26 Owl Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Completely dependent on the manager. Right now I'd say 12th. Hughton/Rowett + Hector + a CM + a winger + a back up LB then we've got a top 6 spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costello 77 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 We've got enough for a playoff mash up imo.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Depends who we appoint. Based on the latest shortest odds I would predict: 8th under Hughton, Rowett 10th under Pearson 13th under Pulis, Monk 15th under Bullen 19th under Coleman And anywhere between 4th-18th under Silva, van Bronckhorst and the Cowleys, who are more unknown quantities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieB Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Hughton - 1st Rowett - 8th Bullen - 13th Coleman - Just fuuck off 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Difficult to say one way or the other, until we confirm Bruce's replacement and the transfer/loan windows shut. I was optimistic pre-Bruce saga of hitting the ground running and pushing for a play-off spot. Now I ain't sure to be honest. The League although, there might not be clear favourites, will be tough and competitive, as ever, maybe even more so. I'd love for us to be this seasons dark horse but at the moment I can't see it, unless we get a proven suitable replacement for Bruce (i.e. Hughton or Jokanovic) or bring in a high profile younger foreign manager (such as Gio or Tedesco for example) plus we need at least a couple more signings. Without a decent new manager and/or a couple more signings = just outside play-off's at best/mid-table/topsy-turvy season. With a decent new manager and a couple more signings = a play-off place.

greyowl Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Injuries key, keep a settled side and anythings possible, even top place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poite Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Under a good manager I'd say we can make 6th Under bullen I'd say about 10th at the very best Under someone like Coleman or Zola I'd say about 17th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopparberg Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 8th, 9th or 10th. We’ve got a good group of players who could do better than that, but I’m not sure everything will fall into place for us, or that we can cope with the pressure of 2 points per game for a full season.

Hedwig Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Would like to think that the new players are more or less fully integrated into the squad now, so will start strongly, and fixtures have been fairly kind in August (on paper at least).. We need to understand our first XI & formation and stick with it as best we can... Think with the return of Lee & acquisition of Harris, we have more going forward than last - just need the strikers to hit some kind of form.. Forestieri owes us a good season too.. THEN, a lot of it depends on the other so-called "favourites" too. FULHAM - Knockaert & Cavaleiro have been added to the squad, but what of Mitrovic & Sessegnon - if they both stay, you have to put them as clear favourites for the title.. LEEDS - A few departures and injuries make them not quite the force they were last season They also seem to have been fairly quiet in the transfer market, and you saw how that affected them, leading to them fading away at the back end of the season.. WEST BROM, 'BORO, DERBY - all have new Managers so in a similar situation to us, albeit, their Managers have a 3-4wk headstart.. Can see us being in top 10, but with a little bit of luck and keeping relatively injury free, we might, just might sneak in the play-offs..
