He'll probably get a fine and a 2 match touchline ban for that

Pressure on him to to go one step further this season - Jeez -

[SB]

No just more of the same will do me.

I’d be more than happy with just the league again!

I'd be happy going deep into the season with a fighting chance of winning the league.

If we can improve on our CL performance and bank a bit more cash, that would be sufficient improvement for me.

With all the changes, 25/26 may become a transitional year. Of course, I'm dreaming that everyone hits the ground running and we win it all at a canter, but I know it is rarely that easy - there are always a few bumps in the road.

I suppose there are two significant risks. Firstly, that an over-excited idiot seriously injures Virgil or Florian. Secondly, that we don't sign a reliable scorer and Mo fails to get anywhere close to his figures for last season. If we avoid those then we'll kick on from last season. We don't need to be lucky, we are good enough not to need that, just not be unlucky.

Then it depends on how City bounce back, assuming they're allowed to carry on cheating.

Last season it was all about top 5. This season its all about Challenging for the league.

Progress.

Think we will go far in CL this season too.,

They'll be tired after the CWC debacle, and they got knocked out by Al-Hilarity after the media declared them as 'back'!

BRUTAL

After shaking hands with many of them, Slot gathered people around to introduce Ekitike, who he first spoke to at the end of the 2024/25 season.

“As you can see, we have a new player, so we’re hoping he’s the first Frenchman who can score goals for us,” Slot joked while looking around at defender Ibrahima Konate. The other players reacted by shouting “Ibou!”, while the camera showed Mohamed Salah grinning as he said “wow” repeatedly.

Manager of the month picking up this season where he left off last season

[Buzzo]

I thought his words in defeat were pitch perfect.

[Harv]

I think he needs to sort his game plan out, we look clueless out there
