Target next season?

Going to change my answer. Too often, it seems like we've been targeting entirely the wrong thing. Like, the fans in row eight. The hoardings, frequently. Sometimes a steward with their back turned. Next year, we ought to target the goal. If more of the squad can focus on that target, I feel like we could get some results.
 
Finishing 11th again would be acceptable, without a 9-0 defeat ideally, if we could mount a serious challenge for one of the cups. We'd need luck, of course, but I'd fancy Ralph to set up a team to beat anyone as a one-off* Anything higher in the table is going to require some serious investment. Our 'starting 11' is very good. But a couple of injuries and our lack of depth shows. This is always going to be a problem. How do you persuade a player who could slot in for, say ,Ward-Prowse to sit on our bench? Hopefully the academy will continue to produce.

* And before anyone asks I do mean anyone. The 4-0 at Anfield was one of our most bizarre results this year. It all hinged on two bad decisions which then opened the floodgates. Sure, Liverpool were awesome once they went 1-0 up, but there was a different result in that game on another day.
Yes i was at the game and we played them off the park in the first half. Ings should had the pen which was wrongly not reviewed when the ball went out of play...!!!!
 
Still the same for me, think we should be aiming for the Europa League as I think this is the best squad/manager we may have for a few years and it gives us a good chance of keeping it together.

Anything better than that would be stellar of course.

Any top half finish would still be a success though in the grand scheme.
 
I voted for Europa qualification, but upon reflection, with clubs like Barca, Real M, Juventus and Liverpool all struggling domestically, I now think we can win the CL next season so should aim for that.

Have to say that I got it spot on.
