Who are you worried about next season?

Recommended Posts

Posted

With players like Scott Parker, Matt Jarvis, Charlie Adam, DJ Campbell, N'Zogbia, Paul Robinson, Carlton Cole and Tom Cleverley all possibly playing against us next season, the thought is slightly daunting. That's before considering the teams above us that don't receive promotion.

So, next season, which players and what teams will be our biggest threats?

All these will be signed by premier league clubs. Maybe DJ will stay with B'pool and Cleverley will stay with Wigan.

And Paul Robinson will go down the same road as David James :whistle:

Not worried at all - all 24 clubs are in the league for the same reason, and all 24 teams are at the same level, hence why they play in the Championship and not the Premiership or League 1 etc

Swansea (Will struggle if they lose their out of contract players like Pratley, Bodde and Rangel. They play boring football and should teams mark out Scott Sinclair, they struggle).

I disagree, man.

A lot of people say Swansea play 'boring football', but what they're really doing is keeping the ball extraordinarily well and being slightly more cautious than a Leicester or Leeds, who seem to just completely banzai forward and hope to outscore the opposition.

Sure, watching Leicester may be more exciting than Swansea, but it's no surprise that they're still in with a shout (albeit an increasingly small one) of automatic promotion and are virtually assured of the play-offs.

Remember us last season? Wasn't the most adventurous attacking football ever, and sure, we scraped quite a few wins by a solitary goal - but it was effective, and got results. Hence, we made the play-offs. Despite the obvious reasons for Leicester not making the play-offs this year, I genuinely believe a more conservative approach would have given us a better shot.

For sure, if Leicester could defend as well as Swansea they'd at least be in the play-offs themselves.

Anyone that thinks the league will be easy or winnable next season is a bit deluded. Teams coming down will be strong. Yes some players will move - but when newcastle came down they kept most of their squad.

Next year will be tougher. Don't misunderstand me - I like everyone else know this league - anyone can beat anyone regardless of form, players etc.

The pressure and expectation from the media and fans on LCFC next year will be the highest its been in years and years.

Just look what's happened this year? Money! Sven!!!!! etc etc. And all of that expectation - when starting at the bottom of the league. Imagine next season when we start off with Sven, money spent in the summer and after narrowly missing out on the playoffs.
