Assuming we hang onto 5th and Yanited don't go all Roy of the Rovers to finish out the season unbeaten, that and EL football will still qualify as a successful season IMO.

Many, including more than a handful on here, thought that out of reach before the season started.

What a bittersweet ending to the season it's shaping up to be though.

There's talk of huge changes this summer already. They need to be even huger than anticipated.
Forget Utd, it’ll be Newcastle our closest challengers

We'll definitely pick up a couple of suspensions here as well
Might be a good thing given some of the performances from certain players. Son and midfield players in particular, although would like Son back on the left if Richy is back fit.

We should be doing better on the pitch and better in the league with the squad of players we have.

Not sure if be clamouring to give Ange too much more money over the summer considering the investment he's already had and the performances we've been serving up.

We're clearly not going to ditch Ange but fuck me there have to be some questions of his coaching team. We've been getting worse the more time they've had to train the squad.
We know Jedinak is in charge of defensive set pieces and that just isn't working at all. Is he also in charge of defending overall?

This Maddison is the one I thought we bought. Not the one who conned us for 10 games. Reverted back to type. Poser.

He was always a MotD player - his run for us at the start of the season was the best period of form in his career.

It's not that he's no good, he's just no Eriksen.

United won't catch us, they aren't capable of putting together a good enough run to do it. Don't mind them.
It’s looking unlikely that 5th spot will get an extra CL place now due to defeats for English clubs in Europe this week. So it’s not manyoo that we need to worry about really. It’s Villa. And our own pathetic form of late.

I mentioned this a few weeks ago, quality an aside in some cases, losing Kane, Dier, Lloris, leaving out Hojbjerg etc has left us with no leaders in the squad.

And even with them I think there's a certain level or type of leadership that we're missing. None of those are going to berate the side on the pitch, show anger to anyone, really help to turn the tide when the chips are down.

When we're playing shit like this, on the pitch it always feels like there's a level of acceptance. Same against Fulham, there was no one to demand higher than what was being played.

Sad truth is that even though we’ve had some good games and more or less kept the pace with the top 4, I haven’t really felt confident going into games ever since the Chelsea collapse. We are so so easy to open up and literally any half decent team will have a litany of chances against us if they decide to play on the counter. To make things worse, we often look toothless going forward.

Our persistence with Mason really grinds my gears. There is absolutely nothing to suggest that he adds anything, and he was bang average when in charge. Retaining out of sentiment (if there's any of that involved) is utterly pathetic.
