During our CL season, we had 3 wins 7 losses and 2 draw in the last 12 PL matches yet somehow reached the CL final. So theres that.
Yea and we were terrible on our way to finishing 4th. But we also reached the champions league final so there’s that.
Mou was nowhere near.
Land already acquired so they can have a McDonalds on campus.
Agreed. Most of our points that season we had gotten by february. After that it was 11 points in 12 matches . That form was relegation material, yet we beat Dortmund, City, Ajax in those same months.
If only we had sacked Poch before the CL final and got mason to take over.
So another bad appointment from levy!
Context is important. Your point isn’t as smart as you think it is.
If Mourinho had racked up enough points to basically guarantee 4th by February and reached a CL final then it would have been outrageous to sack him. Especially after 4 years of consistent progress.
That 'Dare. Dream. Do' strapline is starting to annoy me.
Surely you Dream of something first, then you Dare to attempt it, then you Do it??

Hi John.I think
What a great night eh!
Here's hoping we're all having a party Sunday night, brother
I want to see him back Conte in the next window and give him whatever he needs to make this side a title challenger or at least to challenge for any kind of silverware.
That's what Conte wants, he has repeated it numerous times, he wants to win trophies so we know what the situation is as supporters, let's hope Levy and ENIC know it.

We are not there yet. We still have to get a point at Norwich to secure UCL football but they are the worst side in the Prem so it’s totally on us.
We were awful through Halloween.
We brought in Conté. Importantly, with enough time to turn the ship around. He did. Not without a stumble or two but here we are.
As importantly, and I’ve said this several times before, we were the only club fighting for 4th who did anything in January.
West Ham. Nothing.
Man Utd. Nothing.
Woolwich. Nothing.
Wolves. Nothing.
Would we be in this position without those moves?
Yet a large number of the agenda driven posters on this thread were pissing and moaning about our January outcome.

Apparently, it'll be the largest McDonalds in England, and will be staffed entirely by our youth players that age out of the academy w/o new contracts.
You could just as easily say would we be hoping for a Newcastle win against Woolwich in the 2nd last week of the window if we had addressed our needs fully in the January window or the summer window. Would we be hoping to show up against Norwich if we had a competent RB, a goal scoring threat other than Kane and Son, a MF that didn't have Winks as a key piece.
This is the issue with the Levy apologists they are so small minded they focus on tiny pieces to defend Levy ignoring the big picture.
Exactly that. Finally properly back a good manager when we have one.
My worry is that soon as we get in to a position of strength, we standstill & then act shocked when we slip back down.
We need to move forward & not settle.
The battle for 4th was very weak & it’s levy/enics fault we relied on favours from others to scrape past what is a average Woolwich for 4th.
We should have really been getting 4th comfortable.
If the levy fans don’t think we should be finishing above this average Woolwich then it shows how much they have lowered there standards. If they think we should, then we are doing what we should be doing anyway.
Yes they always ignore what matters & the bigger picture as they will always lose this argument. So focus on small less significant stuff instead.
