    It was back in April that Lenny said his top priority was a striker, he then went on to strengthen nearly every position in the team bar a striker. I can only assume he didn't get his first choice/s in that role and wasn't prepared to opt for second best, that and the news that Griff and Bayo were to be returning from injury lead him to believe he had cover in that area.

    For me if Lenny sorts out in January what he thought was a priority back in April, we will win the lge.

    Where are you seeing this? I’ve seen nothing except it wasn’t as bad as thought. In fact seeing he could be back for next game.

    I’m surprised by some of the ones in there.
    A good few I really expected though. :drag:

    We’ve been over this course before, my prediction is by the next time we play the Huns in March we’ll still be top of the league.

    It won’t be easy but we’re a couple signings away from sitting in a very good position, domestically and in Europe.

    Probably just as important given we just played 9 games in December, the likes of Calmac, Ajer and Forrest can press the reset button physically and mentally.

    Exact same question as last season, except that we look a better team than at this point last season. The huns don’t have the depth and we will strengthen in January where as they’ll downsize and possibly sell Morelos if they need quick cash.

    We’ll win league by the next derby in March, mark my words.

    They deffo won't sell Morelos or any real first teamers..

    They'll spend beyond their means as they'll believe they can stop us this season. Loans in or whatever..

    They are also a better team than last season. Far better, actually. Not sure about your point regarding squad depth. We have barely given a rest to any of our first team players, so how deep actually is our squad? The fact we need to strengthen this month in a few positions probably proves that our squad depth isn't good at all.

    And saying we'll strengthen while they downsize...what are you basing that off? Absolutely no chance they're selling any of their better players in January when this is the best chance they've had in a decade to win the league.

    Already looking at Killie away, pressure in that game, they’ll have a new manager too.

    It's a * that it's the first league game back. Tough place to go.

    Alex Dyer has been given the gig until the end of the season though, I'm sure.

    I still stand by my prediction of a bigger margin than last year.

    Aye think we spoke about this before but it's clear Lenny doesn't trust most outwith our first 11..

    Griff
    Bayo
    Taylor
    Shved
    Sinclair
    Kouassi
    Bauer

    He doesn't trust the majority of them....if not all..

    He trusts
    Bitton
    Hayes
    Morgan to an extent
    Ntcham recently
    Rogic I'm no sure he does at all now..

    So you've got about 14 player's at best who he trusts in my opinion and outwith Ntcham and Rogic (on his day)....plus Shved who hasn't had any chance at all really but has proven it elsewhere.....there isn't too many listed who you'd say are real real quality..

    We'll win the league on 15th march, with 7 games still to play?

    I'm assuming youre at the wind up here.

    If not. We would need to have a 19 point lead going into the game at ibrox. Where are they dropping that amount of points in the lead up to it?
