[discussion] Season expectations (lemmy.world)

So just over a week to the next season. There are likely 1-3 more people coming through the door. But despite that uncertainty (and putting transfers to one side), what do you hope happens this season? What is a good season? What is acceptable?

For me:

  • Part of a clear top 3. (Hopefully more than that)
  • our exit from the EL has to be against a good team if we don’t win it.
  • hopefully good domestic cup runs (but they always depend on the draw).

I trust Klopp regardless of how many more get signed.

How is everyone else feeling?

I'm setting expectations low. For me a good season is one where the new midfield integrates quickly, and 'pool play football that is competetive. Sadly its the reality of 3+ seasons worth of inaction when it comes to midfield rejuvenation transfers, instead cramming it into one off season.

Also really excited to see the attacking line up grow in cohesion and understanding. Nunez looks more lean which could be exciting.

Finally, Trent in midfield - how this looks long term, whether we miss the goal assists from Rb will be interesting.

Last season we had a few games here and there where I felt "ok, we're back, this is how we're supposed to play." If we can play like that while integrating our new players and let the kids (Bajcetic) grow into their role I'm happy.

Top four should be our goal I feel.

One more midfielder and preferably an RB would be great

I know we have weekly discussion threads, but I'll be pinning this for a bit since I believe the topic could be large enough for its own space.

For me:

  • top 4
  • win Europa League
  • doing the double against Scum
  • a good thrashing of City at Anfield

Overall feeling very excited for this season, especially to see the new midfield in action.

Winning EL seems a must for our side, should be good enough to do that

[–] bigbabypuddingsnatcher@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Absolutely agree, though I think top 4 is a greater priority than EL trophy.

[–] Fishy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Can we expect to win the EL? I want a good run at it but I don’t expect to win it

[–] nilaus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Winning EL and top two in the league.

[–] ClemInFrench@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Honestly pretty low. A EL win is the minimum but beyond that I just don't think our defence will be good enough over the course of a season. Fab and Hendon weren't great last season, but replacing them with air isn't exactly an ideal solution. I'll be slightly happier with Lavia, but even then that doesn't make us title contenders imo, which is where we should be
