It's a Friday night and I'm skint and home alone so I have been reading a load of rumours and posts regarding SAFC. I am quite positive that next season will be a lot better than the previous few and I feel that we have a lot more goals in us than last seasons squad.

For example, I feel we should expect roughly the following:

Defenders: Of course they aren't there to score but if between the seven first team defenders currently on our books then surely between 1-5 is a reasonable aim?

Central Midfielders: You would like to think that between Rodwell, Gomez, Cattermole, Larrson and Bridcutt there would be at least 10 goals scored (13 last season).

Attacking Midfielders: At least 15 between Johnson, Lens, Buckley and Watmore baring in mind AJ has got 5-10 last two season and Lens reckons he can get 15.

Strikers: Defoe should get 10 goals. If Wickham and Fletcher get 5 a piece then there is 20. Graham - anything is a bonus.

That makes a total of about a minimum of 45 goals? Is that wishful thinking? A lot better total than last season.

Of course I would expect us to sign an attacking midfielder and another striker before the close of the window so all in all I think we can have a half decent season. A trophy to see our Dick off? We can dream.

Be good to hear your thoughts.

You must of had a drink on this Friday night, unless we get a creative midfielder and a proven goal scorer we will struggle again.
