I think Gardos has done ok. A couple of clumsy moments, but he was oustanding im the game at Old Trafford. I'd be happy to see him play regularly in the Europa League next season. It will be interesting to see if we have anyone lined up to replace Toby.

It's getting to the stage where everyone will start moaning about all the great signings teams around us are making whilst we have signed no one. I'll be keeping the faith in Les Reed

Chelsea entering the race to sign him now, this may drag on for a while

So the whole point of the thread is we are nowhere near as good as Juventus, who are nowhere near as good as Barcelona and Real Madrid. How insightful.

Exactly, would have been a good signing for us. But for a club with Champions League expectations and a delusional fanbase who would have expected a big name? Not so sure. I really hope we get Austin now

Winning the competition is even beyond the English clubs these days, look how City have performed in recent seasons. I think maybe some people think we should keep progressing. But the reality is we're unlikely to get much further without spending millions. The original post is very strange. Are we upset at the reality we can't compete with Barcelona??!! Lol

Song would be a great signing at that price. Get him and Austin in and we will already be looking strong for next season

I'll go for June 29th. Schneiderlin and Clyne have left and no one has been signed. Our top target Claasie signs for Roma. Les Reed is a liar and the club lack any ambition; nailed on relegation. One month till EL qualifiers and the club is a mess. I've just realised the above is an entirely possible scenario; however, I will not worry one bit, Les will have it all under control.

As i said before, he is very keen to link up with MP, despite the comments about going to a CL club. The stumbling block is the price, and that is why it isn't happening.

There are not many players around who are realistic targets for us that have PL goal records like Austin's. Incredible that people are questioning it. For me he has to be first choice main striker instead of Pelle.

Can't believe some people still think Morgan will stay. Hopefully it will all get sorted quickly

Yep, terrible attitude. Could be a good replacement for Balotelli at liverpool

Just passing on what I've been told. He was still keen on the idea of linking up with MP and believed they could make top 4.

Deal with Spurs is off now, they are only willing to offer £18 million. Wouldn't mind too much if he goes to United though

The key is to get used to the extra games and playing on thursday/sunday on a regular basis. It seems most people are realistic enough to accept we are unlikely to finish 7th again next season. I really want to see us go on a run in the EL like Everton did. 10th place in the league will be acceptable

Is there any sort of seedings for the draw or can we get anyone?

Lol at Murphy thinking Villa might have a chance if they make it 3-1

Forster - 8 Davis - 6 Gaza - 4 Clyne - 7 Fonte - 10 Toby -8 Bertrand - 10 Gardos - 5 Yoshida - 7 Targett - 6 Davis - 7 Wanyama - 9 Reed -6 JWP - 6 Morgan - 9 Tadic - 7 Djuricic and Elia both 5 (would not sign either) Pelle - 7 Mane - 8 Long - 7 Not too disimilar to OP. Gave Bertrand a 10 as he has been so consistent, really don't recall him having a bad game or making many key mistakes.

If our seasons results went in reverse order then the expectations of many would never have got so high. Whilst it's been a slightly disappointing end, there have been so many positives. The fact is this club isn't ready for Champions League football anyway, let's go serve our apprenticeship in the Europa league and have another steady season. Then, we can think about building upon it. Keep the faith in Les Reed's plans and vision, but most importantly, keep patient.

Agreed, if we signed him and J Rod can repeat his previous form we won't need to sign many attacking players. I think we will need a few defensive reinforcements though. Hopefully the situation with Clyne and Toby gets sorted soon.

I wouldn't laugh too much about that Morgan rumour, my contact at Spurs has told me it's a strong possibility.

Difficult to call, but I can actually see us winning this. Would love to finish 5th, I think we deserve it.

I'd still take him back. It's not worked out for him at Liverpool but I have no doubt HCDAJFU. A lot of people seem to think he's no longer good enough,but then that was the case last season despite him getting into double figures for goals and assists.

Yep, not so good with our games the last few weeks. I've ended up winning a few hundred!

Easy
