Reasons for Optimism (1 Viewer)

Next season I think we could get a lot more goals from set if we have Panzo and Rose at the back coming up, that’s definitely threat in the are, and with players like Godden, Walker or Gyo in the box and Hamer or Palmer hovering round the edge. Can definitely see an even higher goals return and rather than relying on comebacks can see many demolishions next season against some of the weaker teams. That said I can also see more goals from Midfield with Sheaf chipping in more and O’hare to find his shooting boots. As long as there are no injury crisis’ then there are many reasons for optimism.

To be fairif we can keep OHare i think we will piss the play offs

Squad if this palace lad who everyone raves about comes...

Moore Wilson

Dabo, Kane, Rose, Hyam, Fadz, Panzo, Doyle, Adaramola, Bidwell

Hamer, Sheaf, Palmer, OHare, Allen, Eccles, Kelly, Howley

Gyokores, Godden, Walker, Waghorn, Tavares

That Squad can easily make top 6 in my eyes

We will have a more successful season if Rose and Panzo can prevent us from conceding as many rather than scoring more.

Defence has been our biggest issue the last 2 seasons.

I agree, so really need someone to step up leadership wise

I think we will do relatively well .

Define relatively well!!
Ive said 12th to 16th which is a step back but I'd still consider that doing relatively well

So in short, if every player scores more goals we should have a higher goal return!
I add to this: If we concede less goals we’ll probably get more points too.

Why are we deciding McFadzean will disappear away? Sure, one season he will, but he was pretty regular last season.

Sounds logical Spock.

robbiethemole · Jul 17, 2022

Kelly's hamstrings must be made from spaghetti, gone in preseason at Oxford. Not sure he will be able to last through the season, hopefully we have some cover in there.

I think we will finish top half 12th and above

TwistAndShoutCCFC1987 · Jul 17, 2022

As long as we match or improve on last season’s finish I will be happy. If we finish between 13th-19th I won’t be too dissatisfied either

IF we replace O’hare adequately and bring the palace bloke in we still have a good chance of competing for top 6

Because we didn’t take enough chances. If you don’t take them, you are putting sustained pressure on the defense. I’ve lost count of the amount of 0-0s where we spurned chance after chance and then conceded

Paxman II · Jul 17, 2022

We need a left wing back. Maatsen has sign a season long loan at Burnley of all places. Surprising that, as his progress was so good with us. Now Burnley want our best player? I think we should definately tell Burnley to do one at this rate.

We were joint 7th highest scorers but had the 14th best defensive record.

Yea but as you get older, you give less of a sh** each year.

Kilclines curly mullet · Jul 17, 2022

I’ll be happy when we get to 50 points to be fair

Once that’s achieved, re-evaluate

COVKIDSNEVERQUIT · Jul 17, 2022

If O'Hare goes we will be stronger in defence but weaker in attack.

So could be a long hard season.

O'Hare does a lot of good defensive work from the front.

close the thread, season over, see you in league one 22/23 NOPM

steve101 · Jul 17, 2022

If O'Hare goes, I think a good start will be even more important in maintaining optimism in the group and on the stands. Our second half of the season wasn't great so we need to get back to that strong start. Keeping players fit will be key. Another of O'Hare's attributes is being physically resilient, which will be missed.
I am hoping Moore is our number one keeper because if not further doubts from the stands will be voiced.

Overall, we scored as many goals in the last 15 minutes of games as we did in the entire first half of matches though. Conceding a lame goal after battering teams for long periods of the first half was especially problematic at home. Teams we were much better than were regularly still in the game at 60 minutes.

In fact, the numbers are worth reminiscing over just for how extreme the stats are!

This is my biggest concern going into next season. Doesn’t feel like scoring in the 90th min every week is sustainable, and we can’t afford to concede the first goal in games at the same rate we did last season.

Yeah true but we were also in the top 6 for XG points. So if we converted as many as we should in the first 89 mins of games in the coming season then the lack of 90+ goals won't be a problem

Walker, Waghorn and Palmer are on a combined 60 grand a week. Let that sink in. We are in the shit and selling our best players to pay the wages of ones that aren't good enough.
Robins to walk in January or possibly sooner. League 1 23/24

Gleneagles65 · Jul 18, 2022

Top 6 has to be the aim. This team will surprise many again and not run out of steam two thirds in.

We ideally need to lose one of Waghorn or Walker to get an extra body in midfield Kelly is injured again, Eccles unfortunately is never far away from the treatment table, Howley is a talent but think he will go on loan this season
