    Getting worried about our overall quality since the invincibles.
    I hoped and expected we would push on under Brendan and improve from that very good first year but what I am starting to see is a very gradual decline.

    Assuming transfers go the way they are expected, the main issues are attacking players - exactly the area where we struggled often last season.
    For example...

    Dembele out, Edouard in
    Armstrong out, McGregor in
    Roberts out, Forrest in
    Sinclair (with confidence) out, Sinclair (with no confidence) in

    Players that have/could come in that are worse than we already had...
    Hayes, Commper, Kouassi, Gamboa, Musonda, McGinn, Hendry, Bain, de Vries, Joe Allen

    C’mon Dermot/Brendan...lets aim a wee bit higher and deliver our first decent transfer window in 2 years...

    Member since 2008 with 118 posts.... how strange that one of your few posts is just after us winning a double treble is to slate the club.

    I’m no Sherlock but....

    Granted I'm no expert, but if we could get De Vries into a more central position further up the pitch and take advantage of his height, he's taller than Griff and Moussa, I see us scoring more next year.
    If Brendan and Peter get the team to aim higher he can head it into the goal.

    @henriks tongue ..Go have a look at what Notorious put up, listen to Brendans interview about the injuries...

    Now personally, i think we didn't have a few injuries I thought we were decimated by injuries for most of the season
    so all in all I think we did a * good job. Hopefully we won't have as many this season, but of course the nearer we get to the 10 the more everyone else is gonna kick the * out of our players.

    Agree with the OP.

    The decline of the team has been worrying, going from winning 3 out of 3 trophies in 2016/17 to only winning 3 out of 3 trophies in 2017/18.

    Brendan oot!
