Can we start talking about which free agents are available to sign...?
Lol
On the realz tho I'm most looking forward to The Fields expose on the inner workings (or failings) of the Hughes empire :D
Popcorn ready

Who cares though, Faith. Nothing said will get us a RB, RW and a MF.

I’m more interested in the actual game of football on Friday night.

We just need to put trust and faith in Iraola. Most people were saying, on here, he'd get the best out of players. He's working with a squad that should've walked the league last year - according to many on here - so exciting times ahead.

Far what a bunch of killjoys lol.

I'm looking forward to what The Fields has to say too.

I have faith that Iraola is going to win the big trophies with us. Not this season, unfortunately, after that debacle of a transfer window. Perhaps next year, under new guidance, we'll prove more effective in securing the first-team players that we know we need. Iraola has been let down, as has the squad and supporters.
We required 5. We got 1. Whatever way you look at it, that's not good enough. However, we have who we have and hopefully everyone will stay fit and start firing under Iraola's tutelage. We'll make the CL places, but we won't be challenging for the title. Enjoy the season ahead, lads!!!

Exactly, Andoni might uncover a hidden gem in the youth ranks, or get the best out of someone we didn't expect. I know it's think, but let's face it, if we have a bit of luck with injuries this year (which we haven't in recent times), we still should be well able to compete.
Better football, improving as the season goes on, will do for me this year. Top 4 and a cup win would suffice with that, but secretly hoping Isak and Wirtz explode and we put it up to those awful boring gunners somehow!

Faith, they are free agents for a reason. That being said, I'll get the butter for the popcorn.

Oli - Saw someone post about Gini going on a free to Chelsea. Missed opportunity for us to finally secure our Gini replacement :D
Rome - That's a great shout that. If we just went off most of last season's narrative, a new coach would come in and wipe the floor with last year's squad.
We have much of the same gaps in the squad so let's see the magic!
