markjazzbassist Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Honestly with the setup we have I'd like to see Roberto take both the league and FA cup seriously. Give it a go in the Prem but we need a trophy so full go to the cups for me while avoiding relegation. 11th and a cup win Edited September 3, 2015 by markjazzbassist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not an ambition of our club, this is just basic expectation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right I get that. Last time RM won a cup they went down I'm saying do the same thing except tweak his formula so we stay up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very different standard of squads and clubs though mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barryj Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 I think without Europa we should be looking for top 8 at the least and put out our best sides in both cups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyblue23 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 I think anything less than 6th in the league will be a massive disappointment given our lack of spending but I expect a disappointment. Should reach a cup final and lose and I see a 9th place finish behind the usual suspects + Swansea and Palace. Howardshands 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn balor Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 I think our squad is as good as any outside the usual top four. I think we should be competing for the top seven. Ideally fourth because I think United are rubbish and if Rooney gets injured they have a real lack upfront Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally fourth because I think United are rubbish and if Rooney gets injured they have a real lack upfront This is spot on mate. Few key injuries to Arsenal they could struggle aswell. No team apart from City have looked dominate. Tottenham/Liverpool look average and i think this season is a better chance to grab a top 4 spot then the season 2 years ago. Its perfect we have no Europe, younger boys have a few extra years in them we just need a good strong run and no better time then the next 7 or so games we have coming!

Pearso Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) For me a return to the top 8 and a decent cup run would be ideal. I think it's a bit too ambitious to go back to our standards of two seasons ago, when we nearly cracked the top four. The knockdown and rebuild job from last season will be too much, though hopefully it'll set us up for a decent charge in the next couple of seasons. The catch is whether or not the young core of this squad (Stones, Barkley, McCarthy, Deulofeu) will be here in those coming seasons to actually have a decent go.

Blue 250 Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 This is spot on mate. Few key injuries to Arsenal they could struggle aswell. No team apart from City have looked dominate.

Its perfect we have no Europe, younger boys have a few extra years in them we just need a good strong run and no better time then the next 7 or so games we have coming! Going to be a very open season, with the exception of City.I think we can play better than we did against Chelsea (as long as Martinez doesn't go back to some of the rubbish we played last year ), pretty sure we can compete with the rest.With what we saw against Chelsea and a tad of luck, 3rd to 6th place could be possible.

AlbanyNYToffee Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 13 points from Home to Watford, Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool and Away to Southampton, Spurs, Swansea and West Brom is a big accomplishment. 2 or more points against Man Utd and Arsenal would be big as well. Season off to a great start as far as im concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Season off to a great start as far as im concerned. Its much better than most of us were expecting. The annoying thing is it should be about 17 points, but there are always going to be frustrating draws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
