How is 8-12th the highest voted here? Fucking hell Mourinho has done a real number on this club, our own fans don't even rate the players we have anymore. Any manager could get this group to top 6, no problem.
Didn’t vote yet as it would only be a gut feeling rather than looking at how the squad evolves for the start of the season….
What we do know is Nuno is the boss, better than Jose but not mind blowing, just praying he does a Pochettino “no expectation success” but my concern is the squad isn’t as peak ready as Poch had, in fact it’s going the opposite direction…
Squad Players outside the obvious few are proving themselves as mid table players at best, and we kinda know how our signings will go, maybe one or two Nuno trusted players if we are lucky and the the rest will be take a punt they work out, we simply aren’t in the market for top quality…
Speaking of top quality, Kane most likely to leave and we will realise how important he is, Bale I can’t see staying, Son needs quality around him to bring out the best in him, outside that the standard drops dramatically, and it will take a miracle to get all of them to perform, maybe Nuno gets one or two to step up, but not 6 or 7…..
Hard for most fans not to be pessimistic to be honest….Title? No chance Top 4? Miracle needed, Europa league? Decent chance, 3rd tier Europa? About our level right now, even with Kane….Domestic cups? Pure luck on the draw….
All in all it’s not looking positive no matter what way our PR machine spins it…..
Gut feeling at the minute, 8th to 12th…
