I have no expectations this season. Relegation has to be the reality. 
As long as we play attractive football and cause a few bloody noses along the way, while strengthening the squad is perfectly acceptable. Staying financially secure while many clubs fold will be a success no matter where we finish in the PL..

I have no explanations either!!

Seriously, WAAAAAY too early to have a stab at this - most, and this definitely includes us, must still be looking to drastically change their squad, so to even TRY to compare the strength of different clubs is surely nonsense

I think we will find at least 3 clubs worse than us. For me 15 th or 16th.

It will depend entirely on how the board support the boss during the transfer window. If the rumours are true regarding the available funds then relegation has to be the likely conclusion. The league looks stronger this year than any other season.

a bit too early to judge to be fair
the elite sides dont really seem to be throwing money around at the minute

you may find that the teams most likely to struggle will do business once the season is under way
dont forget window is open until october

panic buying is the norm
but this season coming wont be the "Norm"

as for the O/P
optimistic
but also pessimistic

we can but see

Some.confusion here its. Expectations. Sorry corrective text to blame.
Also my thoughts are not to be confused with a prediction. As already said it's waayyy to early for that.
