Predictions For The Season

[Blades-7]

So with mixed thoughts going around, we'll sum it up here shall we


Where Will United Finish

I think with a few more decent signings and a good start with a few early wins and we can be in and around the top 6. If it is the complete opposite then it will be mid-table again. But i reckon 5th place, a good start, mixed middle but a strong finish.

Who Will Be The Key Players

Got to be Beattie, Kilgallon, Kenny, one of the center midfielders and a winger that we will hopefully be signing.

Top Scorer

Beattie again i think, but i think Webber and Sharp could have decent seasons.

First Day Score Line

Birmingham 1-1 Blades. Cant see us beating Birmingham away, as i see them as Champion contenders.

Most Important Fixtures

Against the main contenders and the derbys :
Birmingham
Reading
Watford
Palace
Wednesday
Forest
Doncaster
Derby.

Were Do You Think Blackwell's Signings Will Fit In

Halford will be challange Geary and Naughton for right back.
Sun Ji Hi will be cover for Naysmith.
Henderson will be a super sub coming on and making and scoring chances.

And Who Or What Will Blackwell Sign

A new center midfielder is a must and i really hope we get Brown.
A new winger left and right sided
A new center back as cover.

Where Will United Finish

Personally i would settle for any position that would be better then our finishing position last season, that surely has to be a successful campaign. However as most fans i would love us to finish in the playoffs at least with automatic being prefferable. But i am a realist when all is said and done.

Who Will Be The Key Players

The spine of the team has always got to be key, so Kenny, Killa and BT with whoever is the central midfield player.

Top Scorer

I'm interested to see what is the preffered striking partnership. I would quite happily settle for a leading striker scoring mid teens, but with more names getting on the scoresheet than having one single player that knows where the net is. Quite fancy the Relish kid to make some waves, although i'm not sure who his partner would be. BT would be the initial suggestion, however we may find ourselves in the old debate of will they work right. If henderson is the holding player will that make BT redundant or provide him with more options? Its an interesting senario, and one that i look forward to. Hope sharp has a good season.

First Day Score Line

This is a tough one, i think it will be either a draw (no score or small score) or an edged win, but i wouldnt want to jinx anything by predicting the team.

Most Important Fixtures

Against the main contenders and the derbys :
Wendy
Donny
Dingles
Birmingham
Reading
Wolves
and strangely enough Forest...........thinkt they will surprise a few teams this season.

Were Do You Think Blackwell's Signings Will Fit In

I have a feeling that halford will be used as cover for geary at right back, but we will mainly see him playing as a holding midfielder just in front of the back four. This would leave "A N Other" midfielder space. This is Speeds position i know, but although he got through the season from january, will he be able to manage a full season? SJH im unsure about, not too sure where he will fit in. At the end of the day i have confidence in Blackwell's ability

And Who Or What Will Blackwell Sign

A new center midfielder is a must and i really hope we get Brown.
A new winger left and right sided
A new center back as cover.

think that your comments pretty much cover it all, although im not too sure that we will sign in all these positions
