The only thing which constitutes success in the Champions League is winning it in some people's eyes and while we haven't performed as well as we'd have liked, it's also a competition rigged heavily against us as the proceedings this year have ultimately proven. If it's not on the pitch, it's off the pitch, further verified by VAR cameras to show us a second, third and fourth time just how bent and brazen UEFA and the so called "elite" clubs have become with their hatred and vendetta. Whatever happens, it's all irrelevant, we've been through far worse and enjoyed it, as the poster alluded to. If you think what's happening now is a catastrophe or even the basis for anything other than mild disappointment in the way we played, then I don't know how you survived those days without slitting your wrists.Definitely don't think it's a catastrophe, that is very exaggerated. Just saying in general, that seems to be the go to response everytime a CL failure is discussed, or Pep is discussed.
Agree on ADL and Koulibaly stance from us but if he really is our priority target then might as well talk, that's all. The sooner it gets done the better for us, that's how I see it, if not then just get whoever is the alternative, think this has dragged on a bit much imo.
As for Koulibaly, Napoli are clearly more desperate to sell than we are to buy. We will sign Koulibaly if and when we get the deal we want, there's no rush and if it doesn't happen, so what. If we get relegated to League 1 or whatever, so what, we'll still be there (when we're allowed back in the ground). We play by our rules, we don't dance to anyone elses tune. De Fucking Laurentiis can come to us and beg for the money.
