When Conte was sacked I told that I could not see us in the CL in the coming 4-5 years. Now I am sure we only can be there if the club is sold to the owners who want a silverware.

As things stand with England atop the performance coefficient standings, we are only six points off Champions League qualification...

...gotta make sure we keep that goal difference healthy mind.

So is this how it felt in the 90s and early 2000s before I signed up for this clusterfuck?
For me it actually feels worse! Thanks to Alan "the business genius" Sugar failing to anticipate the footballing boom, despite being involved directly with satellite broadcasting himself, by the time you got to the mid 90s the likes of United, Liverpool etc were miles ahead of us financially. So realistically we didn't have any right to compete with them. That's not the case now.

And despite all that we still managed to win an FA Cup and a League Cup in the 90s. Pretty sure you have to go back to the 1940s or something like that for the last time we went this long without winning anything.

I think winning trophies should be our mindset. Getting seduced into the top four sky sports narrative is tiring and I don't think should be our biggest objective. Ever again.
As we improve that league position will come hopefully.

I would just like to see Gray in midfield when we get centre backs back. Given up with Bissouma and Benty looked like Corluka when running back yesterday . Running in treacle.
It’s not going to change if the coach won’t change .
Last season after first 10….Won 12…Lost 12.
This season Win 7 Lost 9.
Depends where our wins come as to how long Ange will last. We are 6 off top 5 which isn’t much if you can win 3 games in a row. Cannot see us doing that.
