Yeah 6 wins from 11 is okish. Maybe I am disheartened after the let down of Ole after how he started. If ETH doesn't get top four then it would be a catastrophic failure. Aside from City and possibly Arsenal, no others look that good. Though 3-6 are all probably as bad as each other, so could be a battle.

We've no divine right to be anywhere these days. I'm just glad the football is half decent again, soul destroying when every 90 minutes is a chore to watch.

10 wins in the last 14 games...if I look at everything bar the first two, which is fair enough to write off imo.
Even if I look back on the last 11 it's 7 in 11 (wins) NM I see you've picked all PL games for that stat. It seems the only reason to pick that is to deliberately downplay the current run of form, which is a choice I guess.
Additionally since the Brantford game we're yet to play anyone in the bottom 8 which the two postponed games would have been.

If we managed to finish 2nd and 3rd with the Worlds Most Clueless Manager ™️ then I imagine not being top four would be a bit of a stinker...

This is the same JYM60 that agreed with Roy Keane's stance on Ronaldo. I don't think we'll get him to agree on the clear improvement in displays.

Any manager tasked with a rebuild should really be given at least a full season before people seriously start questioning whether they’re doing a good.

I think it's obvious that he's doing a good job, he's battling against the old guard too which is going to hinder his ability to get best from the team somewhat but anyone with eyes can see the improvement.
Unfortunately.

Diego Costa getting a red before a goal for Wolves. You love to see it
Edit: clearly this was meant for the PL thread, but it’s not a good enough post to bother double posting.

Swap for the 17.45 KO? Such a weird time for a game to start.

For all the better vibes around I'm not sure we will get our 2 goal buffer tonight, win maybe but nothing like being knocked out by Barca in the playoffs.

There's some big clubs dropping down. Barca, Ajax, Juve, Sporting. I guess they've dropped down for a reason tho

While they’re obviously there for a reason these teams have players that can easily win them games.
Over 6 games in the CL maybe they weren’t consistent enough but I wouldn’t want to face Barca/Juve in a knockout game.
Essential to beat Zurich tonight and skip this playoff round.

I know he's I been injured but VDB is well off the pace everytime he plays for us. Not sure what he offers at all.

VDB has been totally invisible and Eriksen clearly needs a rest. Midfield has been very weak.

Surprised none of them have died given the severity of their injuries.
