No, it reads that we've have a bad run for a while, after a fabulous start. Let's face it, top 4 is pretty much a pipe-dream nowadays and even achieving top 6 is a huge ask, on our budget.
We somehow managed it last year - we are nowhere near as good, this year, and that's down to a few things...
Football fans, eh? We start the season magnificently, results-wise...have our European tour for the fist time ever and RDZ/TB are the new Messiahs.
Long-term injuries to key players and we started to struggle, but still held our own - for far longer than I thought possible.
Fati didn't work...
Yes, 'now' it is, but that really was the cause of it all. It's not that surprising that the players (and RDZ) have been knocked for six and the confidence has gone.
I'm 100% hoping that RDZ is still at the helm next season, along with most (if not all) of our injured players back. Couple that with a few decent signings and this end to the season will be forgotten.
Shit happens, and it's happened to us - finally.
We're still in the PL and I really didn't...
