... but an awful team that could bring on Gareth Bale ... we in contrast had to bring on Papy Mendy ... decent but hasn't scored many Champions League winners
Of course we are disappointed to have slipped out of the Top 4 ... but has it been a disappointing season overall? No ... We've progressed again as a club and are likely to have an even stronger squad next season ... just hoping young Wesley Fofana's injury is not serious... we really need Barnes, Justin and Fofana back to full fitneess
... if United win the Europa League and Chelsea the CL then they will have had brilliant seasons ... but if they lose those finals will their fans really think they have had a better season than us? Doubt it ...
Citeh unquestionably have... they have been incredible but I wouldn't swap our FA Cup win for making Top 4 ... why all the fuss? .. we are not yet ready to compete in the CL ... but we will have learnt from the Europa campaign and hopefully can take that further![]()
Even if we win the Europa League we’ve had another **** season. I quite like the FA Cup & I’d prefer it to a EL tbh. Finishing 5th would be a killer though, as Thursday football just ruins domestic form imo, it’s just too hard to maintain.
If we are gonna spend/recruit well and have a crack at the title next year than no matter what we win this season, it’s better than 5th and a cup in the bigger picture, but in isolation, you’ve had the better season either way imo.
