I really don't want to see us play a 523, purely because our full backs are not creative enough. Bola, fisher, Spence, coulson and dijksteel had 1 assist between the 5 of them last season. 

A 523 reduces us to knocking the ball in the channel for one of the three (looking like that will be uche, watmore and crooks) and hoping that one of the other two can get on the end of whatever they can put in the box. Because we know howson isn't going to be joining in and I payero doesnt seem the type either.

I also don't think we have enough centre backs to cover the 3 cb positions.  

The 433/narrow 4231 is probably the way to go given what the squad is looking to shape up to be. 

I know you won't like to hear this; but I have a feeling that is exactly the plan.

Probably. If that's the case I can see us changing it up after a few weeks, there's no way it will work in the championship in 2021. Maybe for a team trying to get to midtable.

Isn't that what everyone thinks is gonna happen anyway?

I've seen quite a range of expectations floating around here and on social media, and the most common one is that we are going to be in and around the play offs. 

As things stand, I'm going with 10th to 12th again personally, but I know that's not what everyone thinks.

Hope over expectation, I think.

I think similarly to yourself but Warnock does seem to excel with a bunch of hard working bigger boys, so I may use that as false hope

Just started watching videos of Lazaro. Had to turn it off after 1 minute 30 because I was getting a semi on. Is there there actually any truth in us after him or is it a guess?

Depends who you ask, some will say by hiring Warnock we may as well be

Nah I don't think anyone would say that. The only possible reason for hiring Warnock (past the initial 8 games) was to get promoted. Because if we don't, none of it makes any sense at all. It will have just been a wasted couple of years, having to start from scratch again at the end. Id say it's his only mandate. 

What you will hear is how some think that's completely misplaced faith, but that's a different story. The expectation has to be promotion under this regime, anything else is abject failure.
