When did football become so cold and calculated? Our performance isn't measured against other teams like it is a statistical evaluation of playing squads. Our performance is measured as a collection of results from individual matches where we play one team at a time. I agree that my statement was wrong, other teams improving is going to affect the table but improving our squad has far more influence on our performances. If we improve our side and play better football more regularly then I honestly couldn't care less who Chelsea or anyone else sign.
so basically what you're after is year on year improvement in the squad itself? that is commendable and not something i disagree with. it also could also, obviously, result in us slipping down the league. i can reconcile that and wouldn't regard that as failure per se, but i suspect that's not a view you would share mon ami.
