I think last years team would win in a game between the two. However, the squad is in an infinitely better place now moving into next summer.

If playoffs are mathematically gone with a couple games to spare I would like to see us test a few different tactics in our last games. Eccles/Lati as inverted RB Binks LB 4-3-3 with Torp floating between 8 & 10 4-4-2 with Wright/Simms

Midfield is key next season. We need to protect the defence more while controlling games better. Even during our amazing run this season it felt like a lot of games were won based on us having superior quality in attack rather than controlling the game and really limiting the opposition...

No loan signings in Jan did make our task incredibly difficult. However, if we have an extra 1m-2m in the summer window instead I'm OK with us wanting to develop our own. Not sure we would have got promoted with another 2 players anyway - think this squad needs longer to develop these young...

Predicted we'd finish 8th so happy with this transitional season. The FA Cup run has been a real bonus - albeit probably has harmed our league form. If we start playing before November next season we'll comfortably be in the play offs next year for me. With a bigger, more settled squad this...

Viveash hinted at this a little in his interview - he said Torp is an 8 (not 6 or 10) and said Palmer can also play as an 8. Think Torp would benefit massively from an extra body in the middle and less of a defensive area to cover. Could be a smart move to shift to 4-3-3 next year, especially...

Would very much be in our interests for them to fall short in the play offs if we're keen on a second player. Although if they do come up its a guaranteed 6 points next season.

As a LM to come on and see a game out he's OK there - but nothing more than that. Said it before but LCM would make more sense to me.

Based on what Viveash was saying I think they will try to train Wright for the CF position this summer. Like they did with Gyok.

O'Hare's stats - Tackles per 90: 20/21: 2 23/24: 1.1 Times fouled per 90: 20/21: 2.6 23/24: 1.4 Fouls per 90: 20/21: 1.4 23/24: 0.6 Dribbles per 90: 20/21: 2.1 23/24: 0.7 All the stats point to a player who is worried about getting injured again and isn't getting stuck in. Happens a lot...

Can see Robins making a few changes - set up similar to Ipswich & Leeds away earlier this season. Will be a meltdown on this thread in circa 6 hours.

Also not going to beg or give a bullshit story. Can check my post history if you're worried about where my affiliations lay. I'm looking for one for my mate if anyone can help me out.

They aren't going to loan him to a club where he isn't going to play.

By both offensive & defensively statistics we're close to being a very good team. 6th most goals and 5th least conceded. Problem is the teams chasing automatics are far ahead of us in terms of their goal difference: Goals Scored: Ipswich - 84 Leicester - 77 Leeds - 75 Coventry City - 63 Goals...

CB, CM, AM, RW, ST are a minimum to cover 2 players in each position. Can also see us going for a LB, GK, CB if we can stretch the budget.

Think we need to keep it We couldn’t control the game against the 2nd worst form side in the division last week (Watford) in a 5 Back to a 4 and we dominate a decent Prem outfit

Brentford lost Watkins and Benrahma and still improved and got promoted. While it would be disappointing for Sheaf to leave we need someone to bankroll us for another season. I trust the recruitment team to find players that will push us on. Unless Gyok goes early then we might not need to...

In April - let’s just ignore that in February/March he started 9 games in a row on the bench before his injury and was our 4th choice CM. He looked like he had potential and would be a great player but he got dropped from the team and we added James in January to replace him. From the 21/22...

He definitely got caught in possession in dangerous areas more than he does now. Also got replaced by Matty James as it was him, Kelly & Hamer who saw out the season. People forget Sheaf didn't start a game from February onwards that season. Mark would have started him if he wasn't struggling.

He is also a prime example of why we need to give new signings (especially those who haven't played at this level) time. First season he was struggling to get to grips with the speed of the league and loads of fans were getting on his back. Now he is head and shoulders above the level.
