CSKA are crap but they created three or four good chances against the rags last night, the dounought thief saved them. We know by now the rules regarding the media, every victory by them is a masterclass and ours are downplayed or marginalized in the small columns. They are a threat now after a few years in the wilderness but they are too big a club to have stayed down there for long, it was fun while it lasted though.
I don't see them as a threat at all. But also I don't see any kind of seismic catastrophe happening in the very near future for them either...more's the pity. But what I do see is a team that lacks the stability it had under the pisscan, and I don't see it returning any time soon. As we all know Peg is a 'here-today-gone-tomorrow' manager: never sticking around for more than a couple seasons. The rag hierarchy will obviously have been aware of this before his appointment was announced, and I think both they and Maureen are using one another as a stop-gap: a sort of, "it'll do for now" attitude for both parties. Hence the instability.
Us (Pep), (Contè) Chavs, and Pocchettino (Spuds) are here for the long haul: I'm sure of that. And it will be these three teams will dominate English football for the next few years. Klopp I'm not sure of, but I think Koeman will not be around for much longer, and Wenger is preparing to move 'upstairs' with the Gooners.
As things stand the rags are nowhere near the standard set by ourselves and the other two mentioned teams, nor will they be for the foreseeable future.
Personally, I see nothing but long term mid-table mediocrity for the vermin.
