WHO IS THE KEY?

[alan ball]

Which player do you think will be our main man this year after Nikica Jelavic's form last season was very disappointing from the season before.
For me this season, Kevin Mirallas will be the one who will hopefully give us plenty of goals and good service to other team mates to keep the blues in a European place.
Interesting to hear your thoughts on this. We can only hope for a healthy campaign.

 

[groggsie]

same as you Alan, KM will be our main man this year. We saw glimpses last year, he's settled now and ready to rip PL defences to shreads

 

[macdog]

Ditto. Mirallas. But I like to think that there'll be a surprise package; Stones maybe, or even Naismith.

 

[Elong]

If Mirallas stays fit all season, he will be massive for us, he's been phenomenal in pre season. He's going to be selfish at times, he's going to annoy a few fans, but I'm dead keen on seeing us have a player like that, someone who actually backs themselves to beat people, haven't been this excited over an attacking player since Kanchelskis.

Jelavic, if he fires we will win the league

 

[Petit]

Baines - Obviously.

Mirallas - This is the player who I know will have have a great season, no need to worry.

Jelavic - It´s fantastic Jelavic has had a good pre season, but he´s hasn´t faced any premiership clubs yet. If it turns out his resurrection is the real deal he´ll produce a lot of points for us this season.

Mirallas

But if Fellaini stays his overall performance might be the key

 

[Christiffa25]

Mirallas, Gibson and the new signing who's yet to arrive.

 

[allezlesbleus]

Mirallas and jelavic. KM to continue to provide the spark that oppo can't cope with and jela because it's always about goals. If he re becomes our boss slotter could be a really exciting season.
Dark horse = Barkley or seamus

 

[The Hibbert Agenda]

Most NB:
Mirallas could very well be running for the league player of the season if he plays to his potential
Baines as always will be vital and brilliant
Fellaini if he stays will also be massive- he's gonna want to have a blinder running up to the WC
Secondary NB:
Jelavic even if he isnt as prolific as his first 6 months will be brilliant if he just comes out this season as a competent striker
Naismith I feel will be a decent and dependable squad player (I hope so)
Coleman is sexy

 

[ArtetaMagic]

I hate just agreeing with everyone but its def Mirallas, I expect big things from him this season. Lots of goals and assists

 

[SteKelly]

Jelavic again. If we play and get results like last year, we will get top 6, if he starts bagging at OT/Anfield/Stamford Bridge and we come away with 3 points at big grounds then we will do rather well.

 

[Pabbers]

The key for me, is the 2 center backs and the cm relationships. We nail that, we will be brilliant.

Jags is still a worry for me.

Why? if you look at the CB's, the most worrying one is distin. He panics when Tim/Joel dish it out to him then either hoofs it or gives it back to the goalie

This could be the most important aspect of our new look side, if they struggle to click we will not do well.
