One step at a time.................

The team selections confirm to me the team management priorities, We have targets each year and I am sure this year the target is to deliver the Premier league title.
The team selections back this up in my opinion, dont panic on the back of one defeat also remember the priorities when you see the team at Arsenal next week.
Priorities are get 4 points from anfield/stamford bridge and beat Norwich. The press will be gunning for us to faulter but all stand strong together.

Well said, we can only go at one step and not two or three steps like everyone is expecting us to do.......and of course the media is waiting to spring onto us at any hiccup......keep the faith, we are going forward.......

Sorry to say, but you are wrong about the priorities. Bobby Manc clealy stated that whilst last season, getting into the Champions league was vital, this season, getting to the knock out stages of the CL was one of the primary aims, which he said so in the press conference.

Winning the premiership was not a priority, though of course a welcome bonus. Improving to 2nd or 1st, another piece of silverware and progress to the knock out stages of the CL. THOSE WERE THE CLEAR GOALS AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS SEASON. As far as I was concerned, the game tonight was as good as a cup final for us in so much as it should have been all out massive attacking action and not going back to the defensive posturing of last season. A win would have guaranteed taking the game against Bayern in a relaxed manner and taking the opportunity to rest players in a period of fixtures coming thick and fast. And Bobby Manc blew it by going back to the old ways of last season with his defensive hat on and thinking that a draw would be fine.
POOR DECISION MAKING

The Premier League has always been and will always be our main priority, everything else is a bonus.
