We've signed 8 players and most seem OK to me. Though have to say I've not heard of some of them. We've lost a few players, but I really have no idea what our first 11 is. Could anyone accurately name the line up against Scunthorpe right now?

That would be my guess right now, but I also think Pards will pick up a midfielder or two before the start of the coming campaign and hopefully they'll be quality enough to slot straight in. Christensen the only one i struggled with could be Ambrose, I might change my mind after watching Welling and Braga!
Ahh, still prefer my line up, never ratin him to be fair. But then i didn't see much up the Championship last season so don't know how he faired. I jst remember him being at fault for a lot of the goals they shipped when relegated the year before us.
Yeah not a bad shout tho, he could be a starter, Leicester fans didn't seem to rate him, but then they might just be bitter. He was their skipper after all and if Pards does get the Central midfielder we desperately need in my eyes then i think Holland will be a bit part palyer so not Captain so maybe Paddy has potential in that area?
Possibly yeah, I think the Mullins deal will hinge on whether West Ham can get in another central midfielder. hey linked with Nolan from Bolton. If they get him and no one from the Prem goes in for Mullins we'll probably get him. But part of me thinks if it was gonna get done it would of by now. However in theory Transfer window only been open a week cos players contracts usually end their year on 1st July. So more activity should happen now.

Line-up depends if Young is or isn't sold and whether we get Mullins. Reckon he'll move Ambrose into the middle like he did a couple of times last year. He'll get more work rate out of Ambrose in the middle than he will with Reid there.
If fit, Todorov will be hard to leave out. He's a Premiership class striker who has been top scorer in this league. Young will leave and will be replaced by Moutaouakil. We will also be bringing in at least one, probably two central midfielders.
I'm hoping that walton will be up to the job next season. Faye will probably still be about and i think will actually turn out to be useful. Having said that another midfielder is essential. Reid and ambrose need to be kept on the wings we'll get slaughtered with one of them and holland in the middle of a 4 man midfield.

im prob completely wrong...ive based this on the fact that i think diawara, thomas, romm, and young will be leaving us.
Young - McCarthy - Boogie - Thatcher
Sharon - Holland - Walton - Reid

But thats going on who we have available at the moment. Doubtless Young will leave and Reidy probably won't be fit
Young - Diawara - Boogie - Thatcher
Christensen - Holland - Ambrose or Reid - thomas
Varney - Iwelumo
Plus we've got some talent on the bench - suddenly it's looking good to me in the run up to Palace away.
Maybe some of these will have left by then but who needs them if they don't want to put last year right?
My guess is....
