Why’ve you not google translated it ya lazy tit, we’ve gone all international on here this week don’t you know.

P.s thanks Roy as per. Interesting comments. Pretty fair on the whole and I probably agree with most of them. I would imagine we’ll be mid table again this season just without seriously troubling the European places this time and I’m absolutely fine with that.

"Now Leeds are around we can't be arsed to analyse Sheffield. 14th? Fuck it, nobody will read this anyway"

 

[SUFC Guy]

I'm going for 14th this season. If we can get a near to 20 goal a season striker in, then I will revise my prediction to 6th

 

[Speedracer]

Thanks Roy. Not much to argue with there really, but I don't think any of them have picked up the fact we will be tweaking our system & will be more of an attacking threat this season. At least I think we will.

 

[8lade]

I agree with The Guardian but I'm fully confident McBurnie will do better this year, whether it's 8 goals or whether he's fighting for The Golden Boot remains to be seen.

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

That's just ammunition and motivation for Wilder.

 

[Shoreham_Bhoys]

Think that's fair, I have us in that lower mid-table area due to a lack of goals and creativity.

Our defensive quality will see us survive if we can cut poor mistakes.

 

[Auld Reekie Blade]

Cheers Roy. Can’t really argue with them!

 

[sufcboy95]

Fair enough predictions and with the current squad I’d say between 10th-14th

 

[blackydog]

I know you make a lot of effort to produce the "View froms" Roy, and I appreciate that but I don't really care what these have to say. Even Toby Foster was predicting how we will do with Giddings this morning. Much like the weather forecast, they don't really know until on the day. I think we will finish somewhere between top and bottom and it might piss it down or then again it might not.

 

[bornablade]

Thanks Roy.

Different predictions to last year but just as lazy. So called experts with splinters in their arses.

'We haven't got a clue where Sheffield United will finish therefore let's sit on a fence and go for mid table.'

 

[Kanye]

I can't believe they're quotes from (mostly) paid journalists. Tired cliches, minimal research very little substance.

 

[Stretch]

I said top 6 ages ago, and am sticking to it.

The pundits predictions are just as lazy this time around as they were last time. Not wanting to look like dicks again by predicting relegation, but not being brave enough to predict that we will match or improve our performance from last season either. So it's all mid table meh, or flirting with relegation but staying up.

I am also already sick of hearing about how we will finish lower because so and so will be better this season. How about entertaining the possibility that we might be a bit better too?

Wilder doesn't go backwards.

Wilder doesn't go backwards.

The only teams we definitively can't finish in front of are last years top 4.

But we were the 11th best team over the last 20 games with 26 points. We need to figure out how to score more goals because from Xmas onwards we well below a goal a game despite 6 in 2 against Spurs/Chelsea.

I think 47 points is a fair place to set an over/under

I am fairly confident that improving the goals scored column will have been at the top of Wilder's list this summer.

 

[Harry's Game]

Yeah nothing much to argue with there.....

......but this season will be the most unique in football history, bar the fire proof big guns who really knows what’s going happen?

 

[Carlton Blade]

Agree. But we'll definitely concede more (only 8 teams in Prem history have finished outside the top 6 and conceded less than 40 goals. They all got at least 20% worse the next season. Burnley went from 39 to 63 a couple of yesrs ago). I think we'll finish between 9th-15th

 

[metalblade]

Well in their minds we are sure to be one place lower now the media darlings Leeds are back ........................... I do hope they go straight back down.

 

[South Sea Blade]

I agree with The Guardian but I'm fully confident McBurnie will do better this year, whether it's 8 goals or whether he's fighting for The Golden Boot remains to be seen.

I disagree............with The Guardian....... that's all.

Thanks Roy
Roll on Monday

 

[Niceguyeddie]

Think most premier league teams now are just basking inntge shadow of the mighty real mad...ERM Leeds

 

[Charlieblade]

All these journalists are afraid of looking dumb again.
I see top half or better once again.
Wilder is still learning, and on a tight budget, but who would you back against him.
Do it again CWAK

Don't read it then.
