Are they close to being done as a top club?
Look a long way from being able to compete at the top again going by this season.
Also with a 2 window transfer ban and best player looking likely to leave it’s hard to see them competing for a while.
Higuain doesn’t look any better than Morata either.

I remember Liverpool fans saying Benitez would win Chelsea the league that season.

Lol Liverpool fans were so weird that season with their obsession over Benitez. Do they still do that now to Newcastle fans?

Tbf i did spend the first month or so trying to convince myself he would have us looking like his Valencia side as opposed to his Liverpool one.

He was going to be the man to get Torres playing at his peak again.

He built the team to fit Torres and still couldn't get him going in the PL

Their perception of the job he did for us is so backwards. Not about how will he did on the job itself (that's debatable) but this weird notion that he did us a favor.
The biggest irony in all this is we resurrected his career. No-one wanted any part of him after destroying Mourinho's Inter and we gave him that opportunity he desperately needed to put himself back on the map, he needed us WAY more than we needed him. As I said in a response to Brummie yesterday, instead of calling us $cumbags for booing a man who once referred to us as plastic to buy cheap favor with them, they should be thanking us for offering their beloved waiter a career lifeboat.

We need Abramovich to start spending money again. Without that we're in trouble.

Why would Roman spend money at United? Very weird thing to say.......
