Lucky in the sense that he is privileged to work for our unbelievable fantastic owners but he has delivered and broken nearly every English PL record in the process .[/quote]
Bit of both here. Cannot argue with last season's domestic treble and the football that went with it - not the record breaking 100 points the season before. Pepsi problem was not replacing Kompany and thinking he could get away with playing Fern there and that has bitten him on the arse. Yes we have list Laporte and that has been huge. but he has weakened the team with his insistence on trying to convert Fern into a CB and removing what was previously the glue holding our system together. Looks like he is putting all his eggs into the chumps league basket and hoping that we get Laporte back for the knock out phases.
Would we take that? Me, yes as long as we reinvigorate the team with some legs in the summer and smash the league again next season. It's a fcuking big ask at this stage though[/quote]
Loads of sense here. CL I cannot see us winning it, we lack an X Factor this season and concede for fun V mediocre teams.
