I’m worried about our midfield

I think it’s our forward line’s turn, no?
If additional members sales work like they did just keep an eye on them from the announced date onwards it’s where I picked most up, they usually announce a date but it’s worth going on a few times every day after that as occasionally they will appear especially in the week of the game.

You know that’s actually 4.3 days which is better than the rest we were on mostly last season.

I’m starving to see it begin again, so desperate I watched the Belgium league that started last weekend, something I have not done in a decade.
I watched Celtic vs Norwich out of the desire to watch something.
Anyhow it’s all the way til November from Saturday

Well Saturday is a friendly for me.
Next Saturday I will be ready at 12:30 in my local with a pint Guinness, swearing at the ref and anyone who will touch one of our boys …

I mean in general, I always treat the start of the football league as the start. I don’t really care about Saturday, no injuries and continued fitness is fine.

Not long for the season to start - thank-fully. If it was any later I think there is a real danger of people leaving the forum… we’re just missing religion from the greatest hits of what not to talk about with family and friends!!!
Say that in the “In match” thread!!!

I think we are done for the title now. It’s not about keeping the faith, it is being realistic.
It’s August, FFS.
I don’t believe we’ll win the title- not because we aren’t good enough but because we get shafted by the officials on a regular basis.
But I still think we’ll finish second to the oil cheats.

Way too early to give up. We were 15 ish behind in jan last season and closed the gap.
Winter break for the world cup will wreak havock for the teams that have built an early rhythm.
Need to focus on consolidating 3rd/4th against a vastly improved Arsenal and Spurs. Unpopular opinion but I think we are not as good as many seem to believe. I think we will still do well in the UCL/cups.
According to Premier League Injuries we still have 9 injuries and 1 suspension and this is the soft part of the season were we only play once a week, god knows what will happen from this Saturday on when we have an weekday match every week too … 
Potential return dates:
Jones: Aug 27
Keita: Aug 27
Kelleher: Aug 31
Gordon: Aug 31
Jota: Sep 3
Matip: Sep 3
Thiago: Sep 18
Chamberlain: Unknown
Konate: Unknown
Ramsay: Unknown
