Rate this season

2 wins from 14 against Chels, Tot, Liv, Arse, Eve and Rags in all comps this season. I can't remember a worse return against the top 6 for a long time.
Change that form and keep the form against the lower teams and you stroll the league next year. But how?

Our GK hardly has anything to do most games so we don't need a tidy ball player there, get a top drawer shot stopper (Cech made a difference for Semi final). Find another Kompany and the two full back positions promote from academy/out on loan players + two world class fullbacks. Midfield needs a young Toure, we miss the extra goals from a player like that. Lots to do for Pep.
 
I'd start of with an opinion, move it forward 10yds, then go back to my starting point. I'd pass that opinion onto my neighbour on my left and see what he thinks, he'd give it straight back to me. I'd then try my neighbour to the right hand side. He'd move forward with the opinion change his mind and give it back to me. I'd give it straight back to the wife and move out wide to the shed. The wife would throw a new opinion with a slightly different angle. I'd try and move forward with that but seeing no-one to expand that idea with, I'd take the safe option and pass it sideways again. Eventually time would run out, I would have had 71% possession of the opinion but f**k all to show for it!

Hahahaha that is class. Well done. :P
 
Put it this way, if Pep didn't have the track record he does there would be a 500 page thread calling for him to be sacked.

3/10

Well delivered, cap doffed.
 
Not quite over yet but if we get top 4 then 5/10. If not then 3/10.

Can appreciate it is a process and that we've been dicked by some very dubious decisions this year, plus some key injuries. But the fact of the matter is that we've had so much of the ball plus been creative, just not finished enough chances. The goals would make the possession based play seen supreme, and we have some great attacking talent which means thankfully we don't roll up and park the bus like the swamp dwellers did, but in the cold hard light of day we are still battling for fourth with a team who are bland and lucky, the new Bolton if you like.

I'm middle of the road, a 5/10, some promising signs there for next season and some cash to go at it, we may have built the foundations for a new style of play and winning, but by Gabby J's left peg we'd better have something more to show for it next season. I am tempted to knock one off that too for lack of chances for the younger kids, something I though for sure Pep would embrace, Again, next year?

This cant be beaten ... perfectly summed up.

i'd also add disappointing after such high expectations and the fanfare of a Pep unveiling !!
 
Since our expectations have risen considerably since the takeover, this is not the performance expected for a team claiming to be challenging for top league and european honours.

3/10
