so are we just meant to win the champions league like that ???? straight away, its gonna take time most clubs have only ever won it won or twice in there whole history.
You've somehow managed to miss my point entirely. Congratulations on that. The point is that the goal set forth by the owner and the administration of the club was to get past the group stages. It wasn't, "We need to get out of the group stages, but only if we get an easy draw like the fuckin' rags".
No one in this entire thread has even hinted at the fact that we need to be winning the CL any time soon. NO ONE. Where the fuck do you people get your reading comprehension skills so fucked?
We're dropping out of the Europa League and CL with teams that end up being relegated the next season in their domestic leagues. Someone post a list of the other clubs that were knocked out with us last season's CL? Not a pretty picture. Now we're going to be going out with Braga, Galatasaray, Ajax, Dinamo Zagreb, Anderlecht, Nordsjaelland, etc.
Do tell me. Should the Champion's of England, and the richest club in the world, be grouped with the above clubs? If so, please pass the drugs.
