Logic says they should be ok based on last season and pre season, but I have a funny feeling all's not right there??
I am not sure on there signings, and I think Europe will be harder than they think, and their fans think they are better than they are, so may get on their backs at home? I honestly think they may end up in the bottom five.

12th and a serious europa cup campaign would do me fine.

They have to hope that early season form will be enough to keep them out of danger in the Premier League because the sheer numbers of games will take its toll on what looks a threadbare squad by the end of the season. They will be teetering on the edge come May. Would much prefer them to stay in the Premier League because it keeps the interest high for us in Cardiff but my prediction for them is that the Championship is where they will be heading and a good Europa League run will be poor consolation.

Threadbare squad? A squad with no major departures that finished 9th and won a trophy and about a dozen new players. a squad that the manager feels gives him loads of options. care to explain how thats threadbare? As for the rest of the post its annis like in its desperation and hope.
