We have a better squad than last time. If you don't think we have than that is your opinion.
I'm just not going to write off our chances.

Check last years posts of the same theme. Every year you guys say the same thing and are always proven wrong. Be positive ffs.
And neither am I, I just dont think we will finish in the top 4, we never last season and we havent improved the squad, infact its got worse. So what makes you think the current squad is good enough to finish in the top 4?
The key though lies with the size of our squad. We have a good enough starting 11 at its strongest that can compete with the best of them. Unfortunately, we cannot continue to rely on injury free season's to key players. Strength in depth is required if we are to compete on all fronts, currntly we dont have that. Will Moyes continue to wave his magic wand? Only time will tell!!

No, I think he means last time we broke into the top 4.

Look people we may not get top 4, but it has to be the goal and nobody can say we won't because we have already proven it was possible.
azzbott ffs this isn't football manager, its not a ******* video game where every player is a static value
the only way to improve a team isn't through transfers. players get better, players get worse, players build partnership. young players mature, and players get back from injuries.
plus you obviously can't count out team spirit, if our squad today played the squad that finished 4th, based on skill alone we'd trounce them 5 nil. but we always punch above our weight, and thats because of the intangibles of football.
howard has had the best footballing summer of his life. Our arguably 3 best players are coming back in a couple months, the 3 we did without for a substantial chunk of last campaign. we got jo back on loan, and cahill has been in great form. We won a game in the US after losing our last 2 (against the allstars no doubt). all of these are positive signs for the upcoming season, and if you're going to ignore these in your calculations your the delusional one.

why not say something about the rest of my post then? instead of just repeating your claim why don't you try to back it up.
in the other topic i posted about why the other teams haven't strengthened their problem areas, why not share some of your wisdom regarding those areas?
