Wolves lost 4-0 to Burnley today. Get back in your box, gobsheite

OP, we do have the start of something. Saliba, Gabriel, Tierney is a potential long term 3 of a back 4 (Mari shouldn't be overlooked though). Partey will come good. Then you have Saka, ESR and Martinelli.
There are obvious gaps, and a need for good player development. But our potential under the right hands is far better than our season.

And they did the double over us

Improve the consistency next season with a few additions and we might not be in as bad a shape as we think.

Surely every team we’re trying to compete with could say the same? I think we are underperforming with the players we have, but as you say a lot of other teams have been crap too. The key thing is who gets their sh-t together, recruits well, and goes on to get that consistency? You really think Arsenal are likely to be the ones to get it right, based on recent experience?

Couldn't that work both ways? Like if you didn't have the mini run at Christmas you'd be deep in bottom half.

You would have still been 6 points behind and worse gd so would have been a tall order. I think however if you said “just 3 wins” the article would have seemed more ridiculous so wouldn’t work.

Completely agree, we've had a rotten season but if we take a step back and analyse the fine margins in some of our results and unlucky var decisions that wen't against us, its not hard to see where we can improve, the potential is there as you said in the right hands.

Well you're right our recent history in the transfer market doesn't inspire confidence, but its not hard to see how we could improve.

It felt like we've been so bad and so far behind the ones above us this season, but if you take a step back you realise, how bad they've all been that we were only 2 wins away from being in the mix for top 4, after probably the worst season we've ever had. Could be argued we're not that far off...

Yes but by our usual standards a string of consecutive wins is fairly normal.

Need a new manager before we can think about significant improvement

You're 12 points off 4th with a massive inferior goal difference which is basically an extra point. I'm struggling to see how 2 wins would have put you in the mix for top 4?

Was my thinking. I think the op thought it was a nice soundbite and is reaching. 3 wins would have made him seem ridiculous. 1 win and they’d be 9 points off with inferior gd. So he went with the 2 wins to make it seem close

Yeah, not quite sure what his thinking was. Maybe he'd a few beers and got Arsenal's points total mixed up with Spurs😂 because they are only 5 points off 4th spot.

Imagine trying this hard to convince strangers on the net you have psychic powers. Ok you weirdo... you got it all figured out why I said 2 wins instead of 3 🤣😅

Not very good at maths are you? Two wins would have had us 6 points off 4th with 5 games to go... 1 point behind Spurs who you think is in with a shout. Two of you should try using your brains next time...😅

My maths is fine thanks. 6 points and an extra one for your inferior goal difference is not 'in the mix'. I never said Spurs were in with a shout!

Never said it was mathematically impossible either! I'm not the one looking the fool here.

We have Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the run in so a win there would have closed the gap to 3 on them, assuming they were still 4th.

Anyway it doesn’t matter because we are awful and no chance of us going on any sort of winning run or winning at Stamford Bridge. More likely to finish bottom half of the table

So if Leicester win tonight then their top 4 place is done and dusted?

You already made an ass of yourself saying 2 wins with 5 games to go would not put us in the mix... so just give up instead of digging a deeper hole 😂
