easy mate, in a humble way, he could have just as easily said weve been working hard and got closer and we will carry on working hard till we get there, simple none committal.I saw the interview, Saka was kind of put on the spot by Thierry Henry who said 'surely this is the year you must win the title' to which Saka originally replied 'phhheeewww. I don't know man,' but then said 'we've been getting closer every year and I guess this year we've got to get across the line'. Something like that. I'm not sure how else he is supposed to respond to that kind of question as if he'd said something more pessimistic the press would have leapt on that as well.
Anyway it's all moot as Postecoglou has made it clear already that he wins the title in his 2nd season so I guess City, Arsenal and Dippers are fighting it out for 2nd anyway.

It’s not a million miles away from that. ‘I guess this year we’ve got to get it across the line’ is hardly giving it the Billy Big Bollocks!easy mate, in a humble way, he could have just as easily said weve been working hard and got closer and we will carry on working hard till we get there, simple none committal.
true but after 6 games to even go there is ridiculous i guess.It’s not a million miles away from that. ‘I guess this year we’ve got to get it across the line’ is hardly giving it the Billy Big Bollocks!
You’d hope your players have the belief that they can win the league. What’s the point otherwise.
It may not come to pass and that opens you up to a bit of ridicule in this modern world of football where fans care more about ‘piss boiling’ than the actual game but I’ve no issues with Saka feeling his team are good enough to win the league.
They won’t like, but that’s beside the point. :-)

I think (assuming the quote is correct) that he’s simply saying they’ve got to deliver this time. Nothing wrong with that imo.true but after 6 games to even go there is ridiculous i guess.
then fair play to him.I think (assuming the quote is correct) that he’s simply saying they’ve got to deliver this time. Nothing wrong with that imo.

But to be fair to Saka, he didn't. It was Henry that went there by asking the questiontrue but after 6 games to even go there is ridiculous i guess.
