One year on - should we be optimistic for the coming season?

samedi 18 juin 2022

Seems a lifetime ago when we were all looking at the various press stories about our possible managers, the bearded one, fat Frank etc, then PV comes out of the blue as manager but not first choice. Plenty of us were not convinced because there are so many examples of great players not being great managers. Steve finally puts his hands into the palace pockets and we get two class CHs rather than six decent crocks. We get michael O, Conor on loan, and rely on home grown LB. PV changes our style of play and makes it exciting to watch the team. Position wise, not hugely different from Roy but style of play transformed. We get to the FA cup semi and have a ‘grand day out’. Wilf looking like he could get 20 goals in the future. Gangling JP maturing, Eze coming back and looking like the player he was.

This season coming? AWB could be the guy to cut out some of the attacks that were getting through on a try before you buy. New keeper to command the box better. New DM upgrade? New third CB to give choice of formation. Plus hopefully someone we don’t yet know about yet. Conor would be the cherry on the cake. As long as most of this happens we will be a better team. Feeling hugely optimistic on what we will do, at least one cup semi and around the top six. If West Ham can do it so can we? How optimistic are you feeling about the season ahead?
