that's 7 permanent signings plus 2 loanees, with potentially more to come. Probably the biggest upheaval of players in Town's history. It will surely take time to bed this lot into a team, while given that hardly any of them have Championship experience, some almost certainly won't be good enough.We're also going to have a fair few players kicking their heels (or in the treatment room).
I presume it's Hurst's wish to re-shape the squad to his liking, which partly explains the sales of Webster & Waghorn. That's all fair enough, but we shouldn't expect instant miracles & a fairly tough next few weeks in terms of results could be on the cards. |  |

Indeed, patience is required. |  |

Agreed - lets see how these players pan out before getting overly excited or worse if things might not go so well overnight. New manager, new players in the division, we have to wait for the team to gel too.
It's not going to be an overnight success. It's a brand new team. |  |

So being top by Christmas and 10 points clear of 2nd place is too much to ask? Is that what you're saying? |  |

Nothing to assume, the deal is done. Just waiting for announcement. |  |

Big big change.
One hopes it means PH is in it for the long haul and he's shaping a team to really build an identity and way of playing. You couldn't chuck a load of new players together and not have a real plan of how to use them.
The new attacking options are so exciting. Harrison as a focal point, raw but physical, Edwards will probably be frustrating at times but it will be worth it for moments like the flick against Blackburn. If I'm honest I've seen nothing of Nolan other than YouTube but judging by everyone's comments it's hard not to be excited. Jackson will add pace and seemingly an option for wide or to challenge Harrison.
We'll see. I agree we have to realistic. Mid table and exciting football with signs of players gelling throughout the season would be sufficient. |  |

Given the amount of cover we have, particularly in midfield, perhaps an injury crisis - if we have one, given the new fitness setup - will not hurt so badly. |  |
