Thought I/we can ponder the campaign ahead before it gets underway in 4 short days.
Although the transfer period was quiet by our standards we have made some lovely acquisitions; Sagna, Willy, Fernando, Bruno and Fat Boy. I am well excited by those in bold. We do need Jovetic to do what he is paid for, and Negredo back fit ASAP.
Gonna be a tough season this one, Fizzy has got to backup what we did last season and that is no easy task. Other teams have gotten much stronger, chavs with Diego and Cesc are going to be a force. And red scouse has purchased at least 7 players from memory, they'll improve again. Rags have also but their best acquisition wont be on the pitch, they could be back among the better chances this season. Arse with a terrific team can also better last season. It will definitely be another season of the top 5 getting further away from the rest.
Some improvers IMO will be Newcastle, while Leicester and Burnley can surprise. I suddenly got sick of typing. More later.
Filipe Luis is a brilliant signing too, would've loved him to have signed for us. Is our left back position still a bit of a concern? Kolarov improved last season but the fact that neither him or Clichy can nail down the position suggests to me it's a bit of a weakness.
