You expect an "average" squad with an "awful" manage to finish in the top 4?

I expect, better performances, better wins and more exciting games, not the mundane boring rubbish we spout out every week, we were rubbish last season and finish 5th which says a lot about the quality of the teams below us last season (they were rubbish as well), only difference is we had a bigger squad so could deal with tiredness better.

I also don't expect a 10-2 thrashing by Bayern Munich, that sums up the quality of the squad, how many other teams have been beaten 10-2 by them? So yeah we're rubbish.

You're the silly one :)

Frankly I don't trust Wenger enough to win the Europa league. This isn't the FA cup where we can scrape past teams like Reading and Hull.

Given that the likes of Atletico Madrid, Seville, Napoli and Borussia Dortmund all sit 3rd in their CL groups and could well be joining us in the Europa League knockout phase I don't think we stand a chance of winning it.

Why would you expect that from an "average" squad playing under an "awful" manager? :unsure:

From the club, not this bunch and that clueless guy at the helm, hence the need for change.

Yeah we won't beat those sides, nowhere near good enough over two legs, we're 2nd tier now and at the level we belong, unfortunately some teams from a higher level look like they will join and end our chances.

We can give it a go at this or settle for the 2nd tier competitions like the FA Cup and League cup, not much of a choice.
