If you don't aim for the sky you won't reach the ceiling. Maybe 4th isn't the sky, exactly, but from where we are in 8th it sure is far away. We have the talent, but we're struggling to harness it, and that is why we've missed CL football for 3 seasons. Doesn't mean we should stop trying, does it?
So if Leeds United won promotion this coming season, in there first season back would there target or focus be to get back where they should be as in Champions League footie or do you think they would target consolodation as in trying to stay in the Premeier League. This is the point I am making regarding what we should be looking at as a football Club, we are currently on a slide form wise this shows by our league form from January, we are also on a slide into mid table mediocrity as a Club as our League standing over the last 3 seasons prove, these are facts, not just me saying it, this is why I cant understand people on here talking about 4th place, we need to stabilise the whole Club and stop the slide first and foremost before anything else, then talk about climbing.
Just one question to people who claim we have a chance of 4th place, can you tell me how you base this considering 3 seasons ago we had a better team, so called better manager, better players, a few bob to spend and there were only three big clubs in the league really in United, Chelsea and Arsenal and four places up for grabbs, Manchester City were not even on the scene, yet we were still not good enough to get fourth place, fast forward three seasons we now have a big four because Manchester City are here along with United, Arsenal and Chelsea, we have a worse team, new unproven manager, worse players, no real money to buy players or to pay decent wages, weaker squad, slipped further behind the fifth best Club which is Spurs and have sunk below not just Newcastle United but also our neighbours Everton please can somebody tell me why they think fourth place is on, taking into consideration all these things as I simly dont get it.
