Harry left cuz he wanted to buy players and Levy wanted that clown Baldini

Also to have a team with Bale Modric VDV and Lennon at his peak and only manage 4th was shocking should of been doing a Liverpool .... which we were until England job got bought up

The difference in quality between finishing 6th and 4th is significant. We are now about the same as we were during Jol's first season. Although his first 11 was arguably stronger at the time.

No blame for Poch here, he has been given a side whose first 11 is arguably weaker than Everton's, who themselves have spent barely anything in recent years.

True I think the AVB season after we finished with a record 72 points, and last season we got 66 points and considering the West Ham results could have equalled that.

Problem is the top 4 have improved with the likes of City and Chelsea dominating the transfer market. Utd have spent a ridiculous amount to compete again and Liverpool and Arsenal have Brendan Rodgers and Arsene Wenger, Great managers who can buy a decent player.

Everton look better than us this season they really do have some good players in that team, probably could challenge for top 4

As I said, if he takes credit for our rise he must than also take the blame for a fall.

Did King get to play much with those players given his injury?

You do realise Harry completely failed to deliver anything?

We played nice football and had a decent CL run ONCE but go on a tour of WHL and ask them to show the trophies we won under Harry

You best hope LVG has spent that money wisely or I can feel another Leeds coming on. Failure to make top 4 for Utd this season loses them £250 Million, you really are banking on that, if you dont you could be finished (depending on what the glazers think)

I think you should stick to learning the alphabet.

We can still afford another season with no CL and our finances will not be affected. Woodward has confirmed this.

As for the Adidas sponsor, that doesn't even come into affect until next season, therefore that deal cannot be affected until we miss out on the CL for two consecutive seasons, as of next season.

We simply cannot compete with the spending power of City, Chelsea, United and yes even Arsenal.

The whole set up favours the clubs who play regularly in the CL, they get the most TV coverage, the most money & ultimately their match day revenues are far in excess of ours.

Until we have a new stadium then we will always be disadvantaged I believe. We punched above our weight when qualifying for the CL, and even finishing 5th or 6th is good under the current restrictions etc.

Of course I want us competing for the top 4, but the facts are we have to do it within our club financial restraints.

Pochettino will be an excellent manager(coach) at WHL, however he will need at least 18-24 months to develop the team.
We need to be patient, as I believe Levy has finally realised that sacking coaches after a few poor results benefits absolutely no one!

Tells you what I don't understand....how come Everton are always so broke? Forever in the Prem so getting the TV money. Big fanbase. Decent stadium. Who's pocketing their cash?

At least we have hope of a new stadium coming if nothing else.

They've done amazing to surpass us, really.

And you actually believe him? If he had not said that & instead said something negative then the value of United's shares would have plummeted on the NASDAQ

So Levy told Arry to wind the car window down and talk about the England job did he?

==================
hmmm Real or Spurs....tough choice there
VDV went for personal reasons not football related either


Modric and Bale didn't come in as world beaters either, we bought them relatively cheaply. Same as we've done with the current crop.

That was not why Harry was sacked! It was for denigrating the Spurs Board in a particularly venomous manner. Stupidly he did it within earshot of two Directors, who spoke with Joe Lewis as DL was on bereavement leave! Nice one Harry!

We had four properly exceptional players then, but the rest where a bit sheit.

Imagine if we had four properly exceptional players now, with our squad depth

Interesting, I've never heard that one before. He never was the smartest wasn't Harry, much as I loved how we played under him.
