We could very easily use their team as a base really.

Ramsey in Henderson's role.
Cesc in Gerrard's.
Ozil in Coutinho's.

Griezmann as LW
Diego Costa as striker
Feo as RW

Let's be honest, World cup is this summer, so it's going to be another frustrating transfer window with is watching as all and sundry make their signings and we sit there doing f*ck all as always, that's the problem with the current setup, everything is always the same.

It's weird because earlier this season people were looking at Liverpool thinking they are rubbish and that we were better than them.

It's not really weird.

We were better than them.

We're not now.

Clearly we weren't better than them, it's the same teams as were there at the start of the season and they're heading for the title, we haven't won it since 2004.

We started well but faded badly, it doesn't make us better at any stage, they also have two 25 goals strikers.

I can't believe people are happy to see this bunch win the title to be honest.

It's going to be hard for us to ever win the title again IMO, we've just dithered and allowed ourselves to fall behind and now we've been overtaken.

I fear the same really. Last summer was when we had to seriously push on, and all the managerial changes meant the title was there for the taking. Shocking how bad the signings were, and we ended up having to play a league 2 French striker in Sanogogo against Bayern in a champions league tie.

United, will either sack Moyes or stick with him, but they will invest heavily, their squad will be revamped. I'm guessing around £150m+
City will be City, they can easily invest more and more again.
Chelsea, already have a strong spine to their team and add in Courtois who'lll probably return and Diego Costa upfront.
Liverpool, CL money, title winners, money to spend around, they'll be going for the best players too now.

Fuck.

Pretty much, I can understand people not wanting Chelsea or City to win to an extent, but to have an added serious competitor (a club who have longer to win the title again for years and have been doing everything to achieve this) is not good news for us, especially given we're just not proactive.

We outplayed them at our gaff and beat them.

They have progessed. We lost players, and imploded.

It's not difficult to see Zimm. Only your frankly weird obsession with making anything seem negative when it comes to our club.

One game does not mean much overall in the whole season. Come on.

We got destroyed against the top teams, didn't even beat Moyes once, and they did.

Yes we lost players, but as a club, we should've prepared for that.

What about knocking them out of the cup then? What about leading the league until February?

We're not better than them now, but we were earlier in the year.

What's not easy to understand there?

We beat them 2-0, outplayed, I'm not sure about that.

It's not just losing players, most people predicted it, we were looking tired in December and didn't have that many injuries then and that wasn't good news, we then scraped wins for 3 months until we met the big boys and got taken apart.

Seeing as how every season seems to end in the same way (albeit with a different path) it's understandable why someone would be negative, I just don't see how you can feel positive about 9 years with little progress.
