splinterdream Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 So, 3 wins out of 3 and top of the league, adapting to changes in formations, new signings yet to play, possibly more to come..... What level are we at? a top 4 side, top 6, are there other teams that could threaten our position? Leeds, Everton? Do we need to strengthen further or stick with what we have? Will we have any of the bigger clubs coming in for our talent?
foxfanazer Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Still think the squad lacks quality in depth but our strongest 11 is almost as good as any in the league
AyewJoking Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Cracking start is all. Yes we look bloody good at times and confidence is high but theres a long, long way to go.

Yes we look bloody good at times and confidence is high but theres a long, long way to go. 100%. Don't look any further than the next game. Hopefully we've learned our lesson from last season
martyn Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 This is going to be a bizarre season given the short turn around, so its very hard to gauge what anyones true level is right now given that pre season hasnt been a level playing field. Having said that, if we can add a centre half and possibly 1 more attacking player our squad is in a good place and no reason we can't be getting top 6 again.
420Hashish Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 The level we're at is our table position
dannythefox Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Over the course of the season I’d say top 8 it’s going to be a strange season without fans and some results won’t be what we think they’ll be. Get everyone fit be nice to get European football again.
HybridFox Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 As long as we make progress on last season, that's what matters. Top 4 would be unreal
AKCJ Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 I would say we're a season from finishing within it from being classed as one of the great big wonderful top 6 that Sky wank themselves off to.
Collymore Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Not sure where to put this. It took Watford 16 games to reach 9 points last season.

PrecociousFox93 Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 I still think our competition is the “Big 6” + Everton and Wolves. Being optimistic here: Top 6 again considering the transfer windows some of the clubs have had would be absolutely brilliant (a decent run in Europa would be even more optimistic)
twister Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 not a top 4 side for me top 6 maybe of a course of a season, everton wolves spurs are the direct comp.
Finnaldo Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 We’re three games into the season. We were the closest competition to Liverpool before Christmas last year. This is a big mental block against the top teams smashed now however, it’s an important step for our season. But it’s far too early to know where we’re at yet.
shailen Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Nothing has changed. We're not as bad as the end of last season and we're not as good as the first half of last season. Saying that I don't think we're far off from being a top 4 team and we should be aiming to get champions league each season. I believed that at the start of the season and still believe that. We're a young squad that is only going to get better.
I am an Ostrich Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 WE need to strengthen to support the good start to the season
splinterdream Posted 27 September 2020 Author Posted 27 September 2020 i get our pessimism after end of last season but we should have had top 4 and it was a freak occurrence that ruined it, so far i don't think we've lost anything in terms of quality, we've only added to it. I see us as top 6 and anything less is under performing, i thought so when BR joined us and i think with Castagne we've moved on to another level. I think another striker is more important to us than a centre half but both if we're going to play a back 3 more often. It seems all of our current squad is very settled so we're in a good position, i think we'll finish 3rd this season.
Leicester_Loyal Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Please calm down. We're a side that's aiming for the top 6 again, but once we start to play European games I think we'll drop off slightly. Lets just try and get as many wins as possible before the EL starts then aim for 40 points.

brucey Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 No idea. I have no clue what's normal any more Just going along with the ride
Guest Col city fan Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 I’m just happy we’ve regained the form we lost I still don’t fully understand why we went from so sublime to so crap last season The signing of the bloke from Atalanta has been inspired. He is quality But we just look to have our swagger back and when we have that, we can pretty much match anyone in this division.
