The glory days of February when we won 3 league games on the trot and all our injured players more or less back and on the brink of surging up the table. Nice symmetry to the 11 games either side of that, 5 points from 33 in Games 13-23 and 27-37. We have 19 points from last 25 league games.

Are the injuries down to the way we train though? I just hope we have a complete clear out in the summer and change the medical department as well . How do players like Sess go from being a sick note here to playing every game at Fulham?
You just know as well when we sell Richie he won’t miss a game from injury all season
I don't know if it'll be super annoying or super funny listening to the mental gymnastics of fans trying to demean it.
It'll be the spammers that are dumbest. They're going to try as hard as possible to lessen the achievement when they won a lesser version of the cup and also finished at the bottom end of the table.
So Ange got us 5th last season (would have got CL this season) and to European final in his second full season in charge and some people aren’t happy!?
Last year finishing 5th people were worried we would be embarrassing if we played in the CL. Best to avoid it. 5th place means you’re a bit shit.
This season we are going to finish 17th and everybody wants us to be competing in the CL next year.
It’s a major desire to get there. Our season depends on it.
17th!!! That’s shitter than shit on a shitty stick.
There’s no logic left in this fanbase.
Ange has cooked us. We’re done.
Let him have a chance to do more press conferences if we win and he can make an even bigger tool out of himself. I can already imagine his gloating and self justifications.
So harry7 if Ange is good enough to take over at City, that must mean the Brighton manager should be the next Real boss?
That's indeed perfect for Levy. Next season when we finish between P10-12 after he picked an average manager and spent £3.47 on incomings, he can say we've progressed post-Ange, that we're on the up, things looking promising for the future etc.
Fuck Ange off today, give it to Redknapp/Dyche/Poch/Big Issue seller/my dead Nan, win the cup. Levy & his gang fuck off the very next day.
Even better.
With you on Sonny.
Vicario can fuck right off.
Madders doesn't have the shoulders.
Bring a proper leader in.
Is Madders out for the season?
That idea we'd have surged up the table and finished in the top 6-8 with our first 11 available more often is nothing but a myth.
I'm more interested in him being out the door in the summer. He can go back to a Leicester type team.
There is a stat going around that we have a great record with our first choice back five, so it may hold some water. However a plan that is dependent on five players being fit to play every game has its obvious flaws.
He's still here then?
He's found one bud.
There’s others I’d get rid of before him starting with Biss
Small sample IIRC, but that worked with nuggets like harry7 , sudoku & co.
A week or so ago I posted a list of games when we had all or most of our players available...and we still shat the bed.
Injuries played a part in this utterly atrocious season, but they're still way behind the gross negligence & sheer incompetence of Levy, Munn, Lange, Ange & the Jedinak boys, the players.
Madders, Biss, Richy, Romero, Vicario, Udogie, Bentancur...I'd throw them all off a cliff without blinking. They are so not COYS (despite Maddison talking the talk).
Dragusin, Micky, Sarr, Brennan & Kulu too, though to a lesser degree. At a stretch I might even consider giving them another shot under new, competent management.
Jury very much still out on Kinsky, Archie, Djed, Odobert...could become decent rotation players, but really don't see elite potential there.
Porro, Danso, Bergvall, Dom...they're limited at the top level, but they'll always give you 110%. True club guys. Decent blokes off the pitch. That's a proper leadership group.
