kevthered Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Thought with our new signings the odds would have shortened....... Kodja's odds of being top scorer is 25/1 and were tipped for 14th spot, I know that is better than last season,,,, Personally I'm tipping us for 10th spot ,,,,,,What do other fans think where we will finish assuming no major injuries to our top players ?

I predicted 14th on another thread...we've made a few decent signings but this is the championship - an incredibly tough division. I'd be happy with 14th...

Out of his pie crust Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Predicted 14th last year. Prediction for this year: 16th. im sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Not having seen City play yet this season I have no idea where we'll finish. We have several new signings and by the Wigan comes around probably a couple more so with that in mind making speculative predictions is not for me. I hope that we'll be pushing at the right of the table but as yet............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw I have it on good authority that we will finish 5th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogkev Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Does Kodjia have any serious rivals this season for top scorer? With the absence of Rhodes and Gray, he's got to be worth twenty quid at that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charliesboots Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 **** the bookies, remember that their recent form has been poor......Leicester/Wales/Portugal anyone? 25/1 is a great bet so much so I'm wading in with a wedge on Kodjia.

Silvio Dante Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 There was a piece on the guardian website today on who'd done the best business in the window so far in the championship. Admittedly pre O'Dowda but post Magnusdon and Tomlin, so £5m (prob) spent together with O'Neill and zip mention of us. Says to me we're under radar in national terms, notwithstanding the good feeling from the signings (also see main BBC football page on mobile app - no mention of Magnusson or O'Dowda on day of signing but Bradshaw on today which is arguably smaller). Its wholly possible the bookies haven't as yet taken notice when seeing what our national profile is. Or they could just be nonplussed - eithers fine with me, and I suspect with LJ...

I'm not. He's a class above most in this league. Doesn't rely on any kind of quickness or pace. He will probably be up towards the top again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not a critique against you, but I don't buy that belief about some players not requiring speed. All professional players in the top tiers have to use speed and pace, unless they have world-class technique and incredible levels of skill, which you wouldn't find loitering in the Championship.

Super Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Defence is still a concern but I don't see us being in a relegation battle this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderMB Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Typically, we go through a manager a season. Cotterill was the exception to this, so the pessimist in me sees us finishing 16th, with LJ getting sacked and another manager being brought in. If we add more signings, then I could see us maybe getting to 12-14th. The league is much harder this year, and I think our squad has only improved marginally over the end of last season.

He has probably the highest levels of skill and technique in the division though and while it's better to have young legs, it's not really been a huge part of his game. Deadly finisher with a few tricks up his sleeve. Fulham still have a half decent squad just need to defend better. I imagine even if he stays at Fulham he'll be up around 20-25 again.

The Gambler Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 I got 70s to win the league on betfair. Will lay some of it off we get good results against Wigan and Burton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
