Season is all on Europa League as i said before. Our league season if it wasn't over already it is defiantly now.
Bottom half of the table for sure and i say even bottom 5 at Christmas.
scrape a very lucky undeserved draw vs one of the worst teams in the league at home.
There is no hope for us unless we buy in January. Emery can go obviously but that wont change shit anyway, his failure was assembling a good enough midfield, competent enough to get top 4 and win Europa.
We need to wake the f**k up. While its clearly not working with Emery, the team is shit! Sorry just shit, no balls or creativity in attack and absolutely nothing in defence, nothing. We cannot CANNOT PRESS HIGH, THIS IS OUR PROBLEM WITH THE PLAYERS WE HAVE!!! THEY AINT GOOD ENOUGH TO DO THIS FFS!!!
All other elite teams are able to press high, they have better balanced squads than we have, we so clearly lack strength and game management quality in midfield.
That 4-2-3-1 everyone wanted, look how pathetic we are using it, not due to tactics, just shit player quality. Our two best and most effective and high quality players in Auba and Laca, one in Auba played out wide was anonymous because nobody around him is good enough to hold the ball, take risks, try vertical penetrating passes beat players, try take a shot, nothing just dire. I knew it wouldn't work and i see why Emery never uses it, but he failed to build a team to play that system effectively.
We are a crisis club now, its official. Hopefully whoever is incharge can bring home the Europa, i don't even care about the league anymore, just don't get relegated and win Europa!
