Over the last 15 seasons, they were relegated once, before that fought relegation twice. Spent three seasons in the Championship, then fought relegation in their first season back. So they have progressed with the appointments of Emery vs Dyche. So I stand by utter nonsense that they have accomplished more over 15 years. 2/3 seasons maybe.

If we had Emery we wouldn’t have been in villas position.
We have a crap squad and been hamstrung with investment.
We have a lower half squad whoever is managing us.
 

Rollercoaster CL campaign.
FA cup semi final.
4 games left and in with a shout for top 5.

Duran GotS aside, these have had quite a good season, think some of the ticket pricing has been a bit 'gougey', but this is the world we're in now. Think they've announced this as well...

They shoved all the chips into the center of the table when Gerrard took over, and I thought it would cost them big. They assembled an expensive, aging squad with a short window and a manager who wasn't up to the task.

Then Emery came in and proved he is, in fact, very good at what he does. The Champions League revenue should have pitched them out of the financial jam.

I would take their remaining fixtures over anyone else's. Spurs will sandbag for the Europa final, and United would be unwise to play anyone in the shop window on the last day.

Apparently need to sell this season.
Can’t seem right that that finishing in the quater final, selling Jhon Duran for 60m and selling out every week, can’t balance the books.
No chance for anyone not selling shirts over the world.
