                                   Johnstone
Bree                Chester               Baker              Amavi
                                   Jedinak
Adomah         Lansbury             Hourihane     Bjarnason
                                    Kodjia

Bench: Bunn, Elphick, Bacuna, Grealish,  Ayew, McCormack/Flabby (unless a new striker comes in), Green.

Interesting thing about that starting lineup is that none of the players played for us last year. (I know that Avami was here but he was mostly Injured). Hopefully they will develop the correct mentality to get us out of the division.

You know that is a complete turnaround of a complete shithouse of a team previously. If we gel quickly then I still think we could have a late surge.
If not this year then I think if we keep them all together then we will tear this league a new arsehole next season

Good point.

Anyway, if we can get this lot we'll drilled, fit and to gel together there is no reason why they can't become the best team in the division, which will certainly bode well for next season if not this.

Sorry, was typing at the same time as you, but looks like we're thinking alike!

Baker was out on loan last season to give him game time.

Pretty sure our 4 signings have cost less than Jake Livermore, which for some reason I find QI.

Can't really see the need for Jedinak in that eleven to be honest. Pretty sure we'll go 4-4-2 with someone up alongside Kodjia. Hopefully!

So just another striker to come in I reckon...probably on loan.

Be interested what the plan B is after Jordan Rhodes.

Lansbury and Hourihane's contracts are up at the end of the season. We should be going all out for the pair of them this month. Wouldn't cost the earth either. 3 in the centre with stability, balance and creativity
         Jedinak
Lansbury. Hourihane

Got my wish from 2/1 👍👍🙌🏻🙌🏻

According the Doc and Wyness we ain't done yet with players likely to go out and come in. That they will work until the end of the window to get things sorted. If nothing else you cannot complain at their efforts to help Bruce having already spent a tidy amount with RDM.

Jedinak could prove just as valuable for the rest of the season, all the new signings are attack minded so we need an experience defensive midfielder to sit back.

I wouldn't write Jack off just yet - be interesting to see how he does with better players around him. Upto him to raise his game now.

I think they will pay what it takes to get Rhodes. They are just trying to cut a deal.
