IIRC, it was in the 7th place thread where I said a CL spot was achievable...Me saying you lack reading comprehension skills when your previous post totally missed the point and replied with something totally unrelated, yeah an insult indeed
Also what was your expectation of us at the start of the season, did you expect top 4? title challenge? etc...
Amazing that when the dust settles the supposedly low IQ people are always right about Levy inevitably doing a Levy and you are wrong isn't it?It's fine, you're unable to engage in a debate without resorting to the usual Levy lovers, ENIC shill retort, sorry to say but it's no wonder people think folk who debate in such extremes are low IQ.
It's a bit weird because our recent transfer windows have been pretty good and there seems to be a narrative that when we get good players in it's not Levy but when we have hold ups on deals and when we buy poor players, it's Levy
Bit of a backwards argument if I'm honest.

Earlier than that I said Europe for sure and CL was real posibility. As we have a team of attacking minded players and Conti went full negative stiffle and never once played to the teams strengths.
We only added Vic, VdV and Madders to the team, BJ was out with injuries... The rest of the squad Porro, Udogie (Back from loan), Romero, Bissouma, Kulu, Son, Richie, Sarr were already here as players for us.
The thing that really changed was the attitude from a toxic negative shit bomb to positive, lets win all attacking play style.

Pretty sure you were one of the ones calling us "low IQ" people a bunch of cry babies in the summer when we didn't sign a centre back, who was right on that score?
That would'nt be you.
Like I said, I probably mentioned it earlier than that somewhere.Nah not the 7th place thread after the season started I meant before a ball was kicked.
The difference is, Levy does it every single window and you remain utterly oblivious.You're the same person who predicted that we'd finish bottom half this season so I wouldn't be so quick to be calling out predictions Nostradamus.
It's never too late to cash out and leave now![]()
Romero came back and got injured again, Bentcur has to get his form back as do other missing players. There are really tons of things that could happen. We could still win the league, but it's not likely to happen.
The writing was on the wall because he got 5th in his first season while the board wanted CL. Ramos didn't take us to the next level and Redknapp wasn't the man they expected to to take us to the next level.
The end result of the season was 4th though just behind Chavs a CL final and a league cup semi final, so how much better were the board expecting him to do? As you said it didn't get any better so might as well have left in the job.. What happened to Jol and Poch just shows Ange is not safe.
Lots of them. I have called you twice already in the last two day towards me alone.
Sorry, but Ange has stated he wants to be in the title race as he knows with our best team out, and have the right players he needs as backup we have pretty good fucking shot.He did and we still won games.
No one is talking about winning the league though. We're talking about maintaining where we are at and finishing in the top 5.
We are 5 points clear of 6th place with all of our best players to return.
No doubt. I think most chairman would want their team in the Champions League and sadly Martin Jol was never going to take us there. We would all have loved him to do so.
I think Ange is a better manager than both Jol and Pochettino though.
You're looking at positions in isolation. I don't care that we scraped 4th because Woolwich were rubbish under Emery and fluked our way to a Champions League final. We were fucking woeful under Pochettino for 9+ months, managed to win ONE away game within that time and were averaging pretty much 1 point per game for that entire time.
Come back to me when Ange is on a 1 point per game average over 28 game period and looking terrible like we were under Pochettino or when we look like we have no chance of breaking the glass ceiling like we did under Jol and I'll agree that he isn't safe.

You are full of shit, lies and spin.

I loved Jol, his flirting with Newcastle was his undoing I think.I dunno why people are talking about the Jol sacking. But we finished 11th that season and conceded 1 less goal than this team did last season.
Sorry, but Ange has stated he wants to be in the title race as he knows with our best team out, and have the right players he needs as backup we have pretty good fucking shot.
Nah, your not worth shit.You're going to have to remind me, unless we have different meaning of the term insult or maybe you're a tad precious?
But we do have a starting 11 that is capable of challenging and additions in this window ASAP, could keep us in it.I wouldn't expect a man of Ange's character to say anything less. Whether he believes it or not.
