Will one summer be enough?

I honestly think we need to start from scratch as this squad is a total shambles. We lost our goal scorer last season, and spunked 200M on a load of crap resulting in us going backwards 5 years.

It’s quite unreal.

I now feel spoilt by those times. We were in the middle league, it was safe and boring, and plucky.

Now look at us, we’re no different to the 14 arl arse teams above and below us. Save for the current top 6 it’s all crap.

We’re now in the thick of it. Like you said mate, come back in 5 years and this mess might be sorted out.

That all comes from the manager. Get the right man in and Champions League is well within reach. Pool, Chelsea , Utd and Arsenal ain't nothing to write home about.

2016 wasn't that long ago mate, building a CL quality side for that amount of money is certainly possible today. Mindlessly spending a ton of money on transfers will evidently get you nowhere, we were much better off as a club when we were finding great bargain basement buys under Moyes. Lots of great players out there if our "scouts" just bothered to look and think.

Honestly this kind of thinking is ludicrous. We haven’t beaten any of those teams this year, and our squad is miles away from all of them. Arsenal who have been utterly abysmal in the league this year by their standards have just signed one of the best strikers in Europe. We’ve signed a gamble from turkey who isn’t ready to play according to our esteemed manager. Lay off the Everton kool-aid.

 
Pickford
Coleman
Gana
Davies
Siggy
Walcott
Lookman
Keane
John Joe Kenny
Holgate
Dowell

Is who I'd keep. Maybe Rooney for experience. We have better players than we are showing but because we dont have an overall philosophy and are constantly changing , and a lack of quality coaching and some bottlers in key positions the squad is a mess.

The amount of 2's and 8's there is quite impressive really.
 

First of all, sack this fatso and bring in an actual manager
Sell Keane, schneiderfraud, besic, Klaassen, (maybe) Sandro, Williams, jags and get rid of Martina and bolasie if he is still terrible when fully fit and maybe Niasse. All of that should generate at least 85 million which gives us a chance to replace our gash with some actual quality. Or just piss it up the wall like we usually do.

Sevilla arent a CL quality side tho mate.

They just won a few Europa Leagues, before anybody really cared about the Europa League.
