Why would PSG genuinely want a manager with zero ECL pedigree their only ambition is that. It makes zero sense because the press made up a story ti reignited the Poch returns home narrative. Conte to PSG makes no sense at all.

This is just theory. The truth is Woolwich slipped up on other occasions and recovered to go on good runs, and the likelihood is even if we beat them in the NLD they will have enough to get past a nothing to play for Newcastle and Everton.
That's the situation we're in and the odds reflect that. Woolwich won't lose a NLD away and suddenly lose all hope they can beat Newcastle & Everton.

7th last term was our worst finish in 12 seasons.

When you say 'best' or 'worst' though..
What's better for you?
7th with 62 points or
6th with 59 points?
On an individual basis of course finishing 6th is better than 7th, but overall progress and projections I prefer to look at point totals.
Yeah, like when we didn't see Woolwich sneaking up behind us in the Leicester season.
We'd need a serious squad overhaul to go out and simply dominate teams who park the bus.
We can dominate games like Leicester and Everton because they're dumb enough to have a go. Even Villa and Newcastle.
But when a team works hard to stop us from playing, even the likes of Brighton who did from the front rather than the back, we fall apart.
The reason City and Liverpool dominate so many games is that every last player can defend, tackle, pass, create. We have too many donkies unfortunately. Some are good at some things but utterly hopeless at others.
Absolutely
100%. they even have defenders who are technically sound and sharp witted, which means when they do pass forward its passed with quality, correct weight and accuracy etc and its timed right. to be fair even if we did have dier at the back, if you got two full backs who can whip a ball into a dangerous area with pace then we'd still have half a chance.
gio and ndombele was brought to help unlock them teams but they failed miserably.
That seems accurate to me. We are probably somewhere around 55% to win on Thursday. Woolwich dropping points in one of the last 2 might be around 50%. Let’s say us winning the last 2 is 75%. We need all that to happen.
So basically .55 x .50 x .75 which is 20.6%. There’s a small probability ( I didn’t feel like complicating the calculation with) which is Woolwich lose one of their games and we draw one of ours. Puts us even and ahead on GD.
11/4 odds is 26% so it seems pretty accurate.
They aren’t city. No means a formality they win the last two
I completely agree but think Benta and Skipp can do this. I would get Erikksen, focus everything else on the wing backs and see what else lands in our laps in CB/CB/CF
I highly doubt Chelsea slip enough for the Watford game to matter but I am of the opinion they will have plenty to play for as relegation has already been confirmed.
For the majority of the squad, they either won't be playing PL football next year or they will be desparately auditioning to find a club that will be in the PL. Both are great motivators knowing that 1. you need to savour the moment which may not happen again for some of these players or 2. You need to show your skills to seal a deal to another PL club during the summer.

Actually, I don't think we are that far away at all. If we simply get a RWB capable of crossing and making chances, our team will look immensely better. Add Bastoni and recall the late surging Sarr (2 assists in last 3?) and our squad suddenly looks a lot more well balanced. Lack of quality in the wingback positions has absolutely killed us this year. If we simply address that, we'd greatly improve immediately. It would take a ton of pressure off the CM positions to create chances.
No, but it is still in their hands, not ours. We could win all 3 of our games and still miss out.
Agree but I’m confident we win all three, we do it
I think most of them know whatever they do, they aren't going to stay too long. They might be playing for one more season at most but watching them recently they look as bad as they did 6 months ago
They don't have one either way. Newcastle will be going for a lot of big players. Obviously I hope you're right but don't think they will do much
