We don't have a squad good enough to expect to beat those teams because across an entire season our squad depth and general quality across the board is poor, that's a fact.
People like yourself think we are better than what we actually are, the reality is, ENIC and Levy have overseen the DESTRUCTION of a squad that was incredibly talented, full of top talents and have failed to replace that top talent due to poor scouting and investment.
Vertonghen, Toby, Dembele, Eriksen and many more top talents that have been replaced with medicore shit because the ownership has taken their eye off the ball and put it on the infrastructure and events instead.
I would argue that Conte has had us massively overperforming since he joined.
This is the issue at the top of the club, Levy thinks he is a genius for the academy building and stadium etc and that players such as Winks are actually better than they are, it just requires the right manager to get the best out of them and that thinking is ultimately born out of frugality and an apathetic approach to the football side of the business.
What we are seeing is 100% on the ownership and Levy, to think otherwise is naive and delusional, how many more managers do we have to go through before the penny drops?
