If only we'd have not appointed Ronald Koeman, David Unsworth, Sam Allardyce and Marco Silva over the last few years, we might have been in europe more often too.

If only we hadn't sold Lukaku

If only we hadn't sold Stones

If only we hadn't spent 300m on utter rubbish

If only Osman hadn't retired

Etc
If only you hadn't spoilt that post with the Osman commentlol



Only joking. He was a decent servant for us and get's a lot of unjust criticism on here.
 
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too:
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same:.
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools;

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings,
And never breathe a word about your loss:
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Then you're bound to be a smug, obnoxious little person. I'd rather spend the afternoon with Donald Trump!
 

What if the Empire aren’t actually evil and the Rebellion are really just space terrorists, basically just destabilising the entire Galaxy with their radical beliefs.
 
we'd have signed Charlie Austin and James Milner when available for relative peanuts we'd have made European qualification last few years.

I think.

what other "If onlys" are there?
Which IF would that be then
The Kipling IF? well yeah I'm all for that, a lesson for us all there.
IF, the song by Bread and Telly Savalas? hmm, not sure on that one.
Or
IF, the 60s film where Malcom McDowell shoots up the school from the roof...I'd go with that one myself.
