That's the thing though, he's a deluded lunatic basically, although, getting rid of mad Mario is probably the sanest and wisest thing he's done in his reign and that was less than three months ago, so you never know about him, mad as a hatter one minute and occasionally brilliant the next
Ehhh, I think he makes a serious case for Europe's least impressive coach at a top club.
Though I think Benitez takes the prize for that competition.

I always thought he was not much of an improvement on Hughes. And I think Mark Hughes is shit. But with the resources at City he would have probably eventually won the league too. But still wound up here.
Why not aim for first? It's not like United is a shoe-in for the Barclay's league already. For all we know, they might slip-up again and the race will be wide open.
It's like in our club motto, Canes Canem Edit. To Dare Is To Do. If we don't aim high, we might as well forget about aiming for anything.

City have been pretty shitty too. :bae:
I disagree - all the while 2nd is on (and at 5 points away it most certainly is) we need to be gonig for it. NOW.
Games against Chelsea and City could well put us in the driving seat to finish there, why on earth wait until afterwards to evaluate our targets?!
Psychologically it's better to push for 2nd and have 4th to fall back on than hope to hold on to 4th.
If we're drawing with City at home in the 80th minute with the current 5pt gap is it better to press for a winner that would close it to 2pts or is it preferable to drop deep and prevent them scoring a late winner?

I think you'll find that by this time last year the collapse was well and truly on.Same time last year we were going to the title
Exactly, for the same reason we should be pushing for 2nd while it's still within the realms of reality
Am I getting dislikes because I'm putting my expectations too high? Going for glory is what this club's about, you know.
2nd 3rd 4th all the same really... not first but in these days of finance before achievement job done!
now a couple of days in the dam on the piss picking up the Europa cup is an achievement!.. the trophy cabinet & future history will confirm that unlike being a loser pretending to win with money in our pocket.

Not true, IMO, automatic entry to the CL trumps qualifying riound by a lot IMO
