    Rennes currently third in France, PSV currently second (and in title race with Ajax) in The Netherlands.. . Feyenord are in the other semi and are third in the Dutch league and Roma who we play in the semi are currently fifth in Italy ... you seem to be referencing how clubs did in the previous season rather than where they are now ... Roy is all about "current" mate ... last season apparently has no relevance ... so we have made it to a stage with next season's CL participators ... so thanks for your contribution, you've just obliterated "Munse's logic" ... which is itself an oxymoron ... so thanks <laugh><cheers>

    I suppose the crux is,who would you get instead and what would they cost in transfers and wages

    You've been one better than a club that didn't win a game until December.. A side you yourself said was a **** side pre season.

    Yet we are in a European semi-final ... go figure ... we have a shot at yet another trophy as a possibility, you have your usual escaping relegation but with the added bonus of some mid-table obscurity this time around ... levels <cheers>

    @FosseFilberto

    You have been drawn into a long term ploy and there's no escape.

    Are Brighton in a European semi-final? ... nope... are Newcastle? nope ... but you have both had relatively good seasons comparatively ... we are in a European semi-final, after winning the FA Cup last season and the Prem title in 2015/16 ... guess it is all about expectations and I'm more than happy to be challenging for more, and different, silverware ... there are only a few trophies but we seem to be winning more than our fair share... so ain't complaining ... good luck with your ambition of a top half finish btw . . All about levels <laugh>

    I told you Leicester would finish 7th pre season and I was right!!

    I'm now telling you Leicester are just not that good!

    At what point will you accept that I knew more than you about your side and still do.

    You got knocked out of the Europa League so not good enough for that.
    Only reason you are still in Europe is to UEFA's stupid get KO rule drop into another **** Europa Cup/Trophy and lets reward failure with more ****ty European competitions.

    well Mane is already covered by Jota and Diaz but if you want the club to be self sufficient you have to hold to a wage structure .

    Agreed but how long before Jota wants more, success breeds its own problems but you're in a great position presently to attract the right players, who want to win things and it's just not about the money.

    Au Contraire my friend ... if I ever lose one you will be the first to know ..if undoubtedly the last to comprehend ... but make sure to tune in to that European semi against Roma ... puts your remaining fixtures for the season into stark perspective... levels <cheers>

    that is why you have to have limits but most of the first team on are on fairly recently signed contracts and one suspects Mane & Salah were left to last deliberately .
