I have plenty of hope, but not really very high expectations as I think there's a lot of squad rebuilding to do, but fully understand that it's impossible to do in one transfer window, and that there also needs to be a massive focus on making sure that everything is in place at the new stadium.

I'm happy about the loanees announcement (I think Moyes will have better options to use up those slots) and I'm hopeful we can sign Alcaraz.

While he's not a world-beater I think Doucoure was an important player for us, so disappointed that something couldn't be be worked out for him to stay, but completely accept the way it's gone on both sides - I just hope that Gueye doesn't go the same way as he would be top of my retentions list by a mile for me - our player of the season and massively important to us. I was also fine with Ashley Young staying as a utility player - he also had a solid season, particularly in the first half when we obviously weren't great.

I'm confident that we're in good hands with both Kinnear and Moyes and I'm hopeful of us starting the season with an improved squad that will keep us clear of any trouble next year as we all find our feet in our new home. After the last 30 years of mostly worry, I'll absolutely take that!
