Compare that line up with this.
Then at the end of the season, compare how we perform in any competition. I'd weep tears of joy if we could somehow bring back the squad of 94/95 to the present day.

Yep its going to be a long hard season that is for sure. I suppose we could not be in the top 4 forever. why do we deserve to be there over others, what gives us the right to be there. But i undertand why people are upset. even in the last few seasons when we lost we played well so we had that not it seems we have nothing.
I can only think when Jack and Gervinho and song all come back we ill look better. tbh.
fuck my reaction didnt post through
but in a nutshell. . .happy with a win but feel the newbies are going to need time
Concerns are about Walcott and Arshavin, Theo should not play wing, welcome back Gerbil and Andy should not play. . .buy Hazard
Frimps not ready, one mad moment from a red every game. . .buy MVila
formation is a problem, too sophisticated, and RvP looks lost as the lone guy with no service. . .a la Cesc
more direct, with pace is the order of the day, two up front, Chamak could be worth a go at that
The thing is, the 94/95 bunch were great on paper but a seriously, almost scarily de-motivated lot.
To have Leicester City (by all intents and purposes, THE worst side to be promoted to the EPL) take 4 points off us that season, to have Spurs finish above us and I think we went out Milwall in the Cup, if I'm not mistaken, to contend with was too much.
There were some silver linings though. We only lost 3-0 at Old Trafford that season.
