It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

The defensive sarcasm about how we are abject failures who have won nothing recently really is tedious. Those of us with the temerity to be questioning are somehow, spoilt, lesser fans. Twas ever thus.

Maybe because every season those with the temerity to be questioning are proved wrong as we are involved in every later stage of every competition and win 4 out of 5 league titles.

I don't think it's that, it's more that just, on a personal level at least, I recognize that we've had some spectacular years and the squad will be going through a small bit of transition which will take time and I'm relaxed enough about that. Might not win the league this year but we'll be back.

I remember another set of fans who were quite famous for saying that, because they won everything in the past, they would continue to do so going forward. Can’t think who it was now. I know it didn't turn out well.

We're hardly plucky underdogs without a pot to piss in. 4 out of 5 is brilliant, but there is something the club are always going on about , which we fall short in yearly. Our squad usually stretched by then.

Agreed. The club rightly have lofty ambitions as should the fans. If we feel the club has neglected a key area in the squad it’s not being spoilt or a flapper to point that out.

I personally have concerns as the squad which was too small last season is currently 1 smaller. I am desperate for us to win the champions league and I don’t feel we have the squad depth to challenge for every trophy currently, not to mention an injury to Walker or cancelo and we could probably kiss the champions league goodbye due to the standards that comp demands.
