We can't keep pissing about saying it's getting a bit better all the time. We've got to aim for top six.
Top 6 - given where we finished last season that is "getting a bit better" isn't it?
I'll be happy with qualifying for Europe again in whatever form. It's highly competitive at that end of the table, I'll cut him some slack if things go awry.
That said, genuinely - I think Champions League football in 2024/5, and I'd look at that Europa Conference and say that whilst nothing's guaranteed in a cup competition - that's part of what I love about cups - we've got to be one of the favourites for that. Our manager's record, the strength of the Premier League (realistically whoever finishes 7th in the PL would win most leagues in Europe), ...
To be honest, right now whilst I'm not expecting it, I don't think a title challenge would be completely out of the question. When you watch that video of Bailey/Diaby at Leverkusen then think how strong the rest of our spine is, ... I mean, look at how well Arsenal did last season. Not to say that we'll emulate them, but it does give you a bit of hope that the jump from mid table to title challenge is possible.
