Expand Clancy's interview, where he stated refs will be scritinised more than ever because of the possible scum10IAR, was quite (unintentionally) astonishing. On my originial point, even under Pedro, we didn't really know what was going to transpire - it all felt very unpredictable. I feel like I can almost predict what's going to happen this season (it'll be very similar to the previous two). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His body can't do what his brain wants. You can see him attempt the same things that he did so well at the start of last season and prior, but he's sluggish in his execution. He'll only be a bit-part player this season. Expand Hence the pursuit of Zungu ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand No - I don't see Zungu as a central DM; I see him as occupying one of the wider positions. Jack and Kamara are preferred for the DM slot taken by Davis in recent years. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSocksRedTops 3,954 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) Feel quite optimistic about our first XI keeping the pace. Less optimistic about strength in depth but key players (Aribo, Kent, Barasic) have a another year under their belt so hopefully that will work to our advantage. The striker issue is a worry but hopefully there is still time to bring someone in? I feel our season relies on what season Celtic have to be honest. If they get into a winning streak it will be hard. Hopefully the lack of crowds early doors might be some sort of leveller, so who knows? As long as we are in touching distance going to OF games. We know we have the better of them in one off games Edited July 30, 2020 by BlackSocksRedTops 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7 6,829 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Pessimist. But I’ve been this way at the start of every season since Geordie Young hung up his boots. The team needs a John Brown, an Ian Ferguson and a Jimmy Miller. I would have said a defence unlocker as well but there is evidence that Hagi and the hew improved Aribo can do that. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing two DMs at home against diddies and also Jack and Kamara are inconsistent and average, at best. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking more about having enough to bring the right guy in as opposed to last ditch stop gap or loan. Is October 5th Europe wide?
