Expectations? Easy to answer when the transfer window is closed. Rovers have lost more than the appearance of more than 1,200 championships, as well as the summer departure, and the total arrival so far less than 150 appearance together.
Expectations are probably higher than this time last year when many were afraid of being abandoned. When the season played, the rovers were one of the division surprise packages, finishing seven, two points away from the playing game. But it is very clear that this is a team and a squad in the transition.
Power? The great spirit of the team, the desire to push, which is the philosophy of the great coaches. New blood that will be eager to show that they can get used to life in one of the most needed leagues in the world. After the first season of encouragement in England, striker Yuki Ohashi will be expected to build this time.
Weakness? Expectations of the most important players. Skipper Lewis Travis, Sondre Tronstad and Dom Hyam can leave next season next season unless new deals have been approved by them.
As it stands, it does not seem to have a close renewal for any of the three. Rovers have been caught very many times in this department previously, and Tyrhys Dolish recently select the end of his contract and moved to Spain.
Different-manufacturer? Todd Cantwell. He joined Rovers without the full season before his belt last year, and had an impact on his performances. He has been handed the number 10 shirt this season, and the hope is that he gives more goals and helps to move forward.
If Cantwell is not available, the 17 -year product of the profession Igor Tyjon appears to talent in the same role. He will be fully integrated into the first team this year.
