Need to protect the UEFA ranking pts. So finish at worst 7th, go Arry 2011-2 in the group stages, and see how to deal with the KO stages if/when the time comes.
This. Especially with the coefficient being a way into the champions league when the new format comes in.
We get some possession, Son makes a great run which Perisic doesn't see - and the same twat is caught offside looking along the line!
Also, 6 competitive games in the first half of the season (which is where you want the likes of Parrott etc to try and stake a claim for the PL starting XI) .
**** coefficients and **** the CL. This club needs to rebuild from the ground up and European competition shouldn't feature for 2-3 years at least. To much ground to recover in 1 or 2 seasons.
Porro spun again. ****ing hell he’s dreadful. How can you be so bad that it makes people wish for Emerson to return from injury quickly? The level of desperation here is nuts.
Don't think anyone wants him...think that's what's we'll get though. No manager in their right mind will wanna take this rebuild on. We need a new keeper, at least two new central defenders, a left back, a right back, a creative midfielder, a defensive midfielder, a wide attacking player and a striker (2 when kane goes). On top of that we need rid of Dier, Sanchez, Royal, Forster, Lloris, Ndombele, Lo Celso, Moura, lenglet, Sessengon and Richarlison. That is one he'll of a job to take on imho
Gary Neville, with a very accurate appraisal of where we are, no pressing, reactive football and playing a brand of football that doesn't work anymore.
