Usually his forwards get about as much game time in 55+ games (domestic and Europe) as ours do in 40. Oh. It must be the safety of everyone else's players he was so worried about then, what a lovely chap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 They went 7 points clear when they beat us on Boxing day so we've done well to stay in range as many would've expected them to get going given their attacking options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Why does Jesus always look like he's close to tears? lol Never realised he was back ffs, otherwise i would have had him back in my FPL. Instead I ended up going with Ollie, and probably guaranteeing an end to his brilliant form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the worst manager in club history for 11 games this season so we have played a lot fewer games than them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been lightyears behind them For all our £300m spend and them having this tiny nett spend due to pulling off hugely inflated sales (and impressive to be fair to them) their 25 man squad + wages cost around double ours, the starting 11s when we play must be £100m apart They have the ex worlds most expensive GK and CB and a £80m striker The reason we're close this season is because they've fell off, with their spending and that squad they should still be lightyears ahead of us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's important then we're relatively stable with manager e.g. Emery not going off to join a CL club as Ancelotti did with Real Madrid and don't lose anyone critical in squad (Grealish) and then we should have enough to overtake one of them at least in next 18 months. Last year it was Man. United basically sacking off the final few months. Think they only got 56 points in the end so that's pretty much what Liverpool and Chelsea will get so we need to be in good shape rather than endless transition from new manager wanting to change things. Next season we really should be finishing above Spurs unless they pull off an amazing summer transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
