Very unlikely we will stay up. No dissing the current players, but we really need to strengthen or it could get embarrising imo. Too slow at the back, and lack of a really good striker will show up badly.
You need a lot of luck these days, you can have 8 shots on target versus 2 against you, and yet still lose 1-0. We had some good luck at times last season in terms of individual game statistics, possession, attempts, etc, and it begs the question can we be lucky again in the prem?
Its nice to look at things from a 'fans' point of view with rose coloured specs on, and decide that we could be invincible which is a great dream, but that's all it is. I've seen suggestions that we could be top 6 next year which would be fantastic, but is simply 'roy of the rovers' stuff.
Some will disagree, mainly due to blinkered passion, but ask yourself some q's from last year,
how many pens last year, for and against? and the percentage of scoring from them. How many times did Paddy save us from dropping points? At least 6-8 imo.
Then there's the late goals at Derby, late winner at Palace, also v Leicester, plus a few others. Our biggest defeat was against the bottom side ffs.
Get real chaps, results might be quite painful if we don't spend. *hides behind sofa*
