last time we reached the Prem.... 16:10 - Jul 18 with 1833 views | blueysbackside | ....we scored 92 goals. If Omari now leaves - and good luck to him if he does - we are gonna need some stellar attacking replacements or players having a fantastic season, which, of course, is possible. We'll need, say, Ogbeni, Clarke, Szmodics, Philogene, Chaplin and Broadhead to be contributing close to 10 goals, while Hirst will arguably need to step up, too. Can't see it happening in terms of us being top two right now. All of that can change with the right incomings. |  | | |  |

last time we reached the Prem.... on 17:28 - Jul 18 by blueysbackside | No. Is that wrong? I can't see all of them hitting the heights they did for other teams. That's my fear. Sorry if not everyone agrees with it. Surely you also have to take into account how many games they've played together - in the same team - at this level? A big ask, I'd say. |
You don't think between them with their 80 odd goals in a single season at this level they can replace the 10 goals Hutch managed? I'd say that's being very pessimistic to be honest, I think calling it a big ask is a massive stretch. |  |

last time we reached the Prem.... on 17:31 - Jul 18 by blueysbackside | We do have a load of attacking options. I'd be interested to know how many of those players you think will better what they did in 23-24 (taking away Ogbene? |
All of them maybe with the exception of Broadhead. |  | |  |

last time we reached the Prem.... on 17:41 - Jul 18 by Dubtractor | I'm assuming nothing, but it seems oddly pessimistic to seemingly believe that a whole host of players with great goalscoring records in this league suddenly hit the skids. |
Clearly it's because we lost 34 consecutive games last year & all of our players have forgotten how to kick a football due to the trauma of last season. Plus McKenna is a fraud, we'll finish 8th in the table and Ashton is more worried about his personal profile than doing his job. I despair about some of our fans. And to top it off, my least favourite poster of the last several years appears to have been reinstated after being banned for the 4th or 5th time!! Think I might need to steer clear of the forum for a while. |  | |  |

last time we reached the Prem.... on 17:25 - Jul 18 by blueysbackside | So my point still stands - even if you feel there's no point to it. We need the aforementioned players to repeat what they've done before. I can't see it. Should I change my view to something positive because that's what I believe? I don't understand these posters who moan about other people's posts if it doesn't agree with their narrative. Perhaps all the posts should go through you and then you can select which ones to put on here. ALL views are welcome. |
You're of course entitled to your opinion. There's just no logic in it, so on the balance of probabilities is unlikely to be a good assessment of our goal threat next season. |  | |  |

Quite a few games together at a higher level. They are already used to one another and the opposition will mostly be inferior to that we were facing last season. |  |

last time we reached the Prem.... on 16:40 - Jul 18 by FrimleyBlue | Also. We could win every game 1 0 |
I see what you're saying but "114 point, 38 goals" doesn't have the same ring to it. |  |
