I'm still none the wiser what their big plan is really. ETH is obviously a decent coach, and amidst the squad there is good, bad and ugly, but they don't sound like they're about to be any more ruthless now than they were three years ago. De Gea getting another contract is bonkers, some of their most recent signings don't really make sense. But they're not even "next year is our year, here is the template from this season as how to play next year" like Arsenal or even Liverpool in the latter stages of the season. They're 2 or 3 years away from a challenge. Just a basket case of a club.
