So AVB committed to playing his best available starting XI for the majority of the Europa League. Where has that got us? A tired squad, our best player injured, and no silverware.... goes to prove that Harry was right!!
Should have stuck to playing a second string team in the Europa League and kept our key players fresh for the Premier League campaign instead.
We'll finish 5th in the league this year behind Arsenal in 3rd and Chelsea in 4th.
Bale will be gone in the summer.
Levy will mess around in the transfer market as usual but fail to deliver as usual. Blue & Yellow, yeah right....
I've been a season ticket holder for the last 8 seasons and I'm fed up with the same old excuses year in, year out. Levy engineered the departure of the best manager we had in the last 25 years because he never trusted Harry and he never believed that Harry fitted his description of a modern day football manager. Now he has AVB who was found out at Chelsea - and who'llbe found out at Spurs within the next 6-9 months. We have a reducing squad which has too many players which are simply not good enough to play regularly for a 'top 3' team - Gallas, Assou-Ekotto, Adebayor, Dempsey, Lennon (yes, completely overrated & overhyped by Spurs fans), Huddlestone, Defoe, Livermore, Friedel... not good enough.
What I'd give for a Berbatov or Modric in their prime... that was before Levy sold them and replaced them with players of a much lesser quality, but that's our beloved chairman's definition of a 'good deal'.
Virtually everything you type is off the scale wrong, but on this point.... that's worked so well in the past hasn't it? Remember when we used to rest players and still be knackered at the end of the season!?
