Sounds like Daniel Levy giving his latest manager his yearly targets.Win the league cup and our own fans will be referencing it as 'clown cup' or 'worthless cup' I think I heard when we won the 'Worthington' Cup.
Win the FA Cup and it will be played down as a minor, over due trophy on the back of lucky draws.
Win the UEFA Cup and it will be the Thursday night budget squad cup.
Win the league and it will be because it was the easiest ever season to win it. ever.
In summary - "top 4 will do, maybe top 6, nothing else"
What would you put our "disgusting run of defeats " down to.
The manager?
We can't blame fatigue. We had no European football AND no domestic cup interest. In fact we played less games than everyone else!
Yes.
We got progressively worse as the season wore on. Players got worse as the season wore on. Tactics became easier for opposition to exploit as the season wore on.
I worry 24/25 will just see the trend continue.
The white one on the far left
good , far away from us
Perfect dull workhorse for Simeone
Yeah definitely question marks around Ange tactically. Let's hope he's working on some plan B's and C's.
The league cup was down to Ange. We were flying and he decided to experiment with the squad.
Now it has got to be about getting the right players in people who improve the starting xi.
You are both right
We bottled it, it's as simple as that. The pressure of the run in got to us and we shat ourselves as we have done many times before. Maddison being in diabolical form was a big thing too but it was mostly a mental collapse. We played with far more guts in that November-January period when we had half a team and Emerson/Davies at CB than we did during the run-in. Compare how we played away at City vs away at Newcastle.
Everyone at the club has to take responsibility for how we fell apart last season. Players didn't show enough heart, Ange was extremely naive at times, Levy wasn't bold enough in the market. There is a lot of work to do but I'm optimistic that lessons have been learned. We have made changes to the coaching staff, we are binning the players that need binning, we are signing hungry players.
Very much a pinch of salt here……

I’m warming to Toney the player. Not sure about the guy. His goal return wasn’t great since his ban but he does bring players into the game well
If we could get them down to under 40 probably a good deal?

Who does he play for ?
He is overrated. Instead of shitting £40m (I'm guessing) on a player who will be 29 this season and has one good top flight season under his belt, we should shit £80m on a better, younger player.
This would be such a cop out transfer.
I can agree that we haven't had first team ready signings in as early as we fans wanted them but, once again, we don't know the dynamics behind our perceived delays.That's not true though, plenty of ENIC supporters on this site, in particular monitoring this specific thread for anything deemed OFF TOPIC.
We're dithering and doing the bare minimum yet again, at this point I would've thought the penny would drop with everyone but alas no, still plenty of loyalists on here.
This isn't defending, this is me saying that, like you and every other bugger on this site, I have no fucking idea!
The difference is that I'm not inventing scenarios and flying into an angry strop at the drop of a hat.
