CloudFox Posted 9 August 2021 Share Posted 9 August 2021 Surprised people are writing off Brentford so early. I think they may surprise a few in this league. Their first game, against Arsenal, will be an interesting one to keep an eye on... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could do a first season Sheffield United Toney scored more goals for them last season than Watkins did the year before, excited to see how he gets on. They're gonna surprise a few. Their all-round game is more expansive than Sheff Utd - they're more like peak Prem-Era Bournemouth in terms of style, and the Cherries got on just fine.

I mean he's not likely to be starting straight off the bat, it'll give them a few weeks to realise and to write up the above before the news cycle moves on.

Oh Finners, such optimism! 🥲 I think it may well go on longer than that I'm afraid. After the attention he got at the Euros, he's going to be centre of attention for some time. We can only hope the Kane situation escalates to eclipse it! ...or all just stop reading any sports media altogether, which to be honest sounds like a better shout.

twister Posted 10 August 2021 Share Posted 10 August 2021 9 hours ago, The whole world smiles said: Very glass half empty view on things their mate. I'll give you the glass half full version for a bit of balance. We have a side that is playing some of the best football I've ever seen down city. Youri Tilemans is an artist who paint the most beautiful pictures with his feet. Ndidi is one of the best destroyers in the world. Harvey barnes is absolutely eleictric one the most exciting and direct player in the league and we've strenrghed the squad without losing anyone important. We are in Europe.... Don't know about you but that still excites me. The vaccine seems to be working across Europe so I will be going to city's and grounds in Europe I have never been to drinking fine European beers I've never drunk before. All this after no live football for 18 months or whatever it was. I am honestly absolutely buzzing for the season. And if you want to talk about soulless football cast your mind back to the king power stadium 2004-2009. You do give a good pep talk, Europe should be good,one things for sure for all the shiftiness in general of the modern game. The last five years with the clubs journey has shown you can have some romance in football still, just wonder with the sharks circling how long it can really last.

People cant expect miracles , lets be real with the way big boys have spent its a cast iron top four. This summer has proven the minute you even remotely get near the big boys they just take your players again and again and again the facup again is the hope but that aside I think we're look at a 2008 season with chelsea city united above 80 points and the top two above 90 like two years wouldn't surprise me. Personally think Vards will give it one last year and then retire to america, and with him goes in a way the last of a type of footballer roy of the rovers type we will never see again. Hahahahaaa bloody hell Twister! If anything last season was the one not to look forward to. Soulless football with no fans whilst we're all stuck at home eating frey bentos. We'd also just shown relegation form for the final third of the season and we'd barely made any signings. Anyway our match going fan base is mainly made up of old biddies and kids so I can't see much aggro off them this season so you needn't worry yourself mate 😂😂😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StriderHiryu Posted 10 August 2021 Share Posted 10 August 2021 Tammy Abraham going to Roma for 34m. Not outlandish given fees for Watkins and Ings but makes me even happier with our purchase of Daka.
