Worth a punt?

Really absolutely everything would have to go right in Roy's first season for us to challenge for the title, but, what in your opinion would be the 3 aspects that would give us a wholeheartedly unexpected triumph.

 

 

1. Roy's new signings hit the ground running (really fast) and all have as good a 1st season as Nando did.

2. Torres scores 30+, Stevie 20+, Jocan 10+ etc

3. Last seasons top 4 have a season like we've just had

??

 

Stranger things have happened.

 

Honest.

Honest.

A really good centre back , the likes of which we are never getting, and I'd have some confidence about making it into a champions league spot. As for winning the league ..

Why don't you just set your money on fire?

 

Or back Spurs.

 

ha ha!

 

At least burning it will keep you warm

Which option fills me with the most revulsion I wonder, burning a tenner or being a Spurs fan?, it's a no brainer really eh.

 

I'd happily burn my own money, than have had to go down The Lane for the last 20 years.

 

Jesus the thought of that chills my blood.

The only way we're getting close to winning the league is if Torres, Gerrard, Masch stay and we sign a top quality CB, replace Lucas with a top quality CM, sign a winger and striker.

 

So no, it isn't worth a punt.

And even then we only have one left back who probably isn't good enough to be our second choice left back.

 

I think if we get to break even and start pushing now we can do something interesting at least.

Oh yeah forgot about that. Add a LB to my list.

Yeah. If we can keep the big 3. The likes of Babel, Riera, Benayoun, Aquilani/Lucas, Skrtel...should in theory raise enough funds to at least try and improve on what we have.

 

As it stands it'll be a struggle just to stand still.

[ifthebestplayersstayandjovanovicisamazing]All I'm hoping for is for a really jammy season injurywise and we'll do pretty well. We might even do really well if it's one of those seasons where there's only one team that goes through the whole season with the physio pretty much untroubled and the other big teams have middling to poor seasons in that respect; they don't even need to have total injury carnage. Plus, there's no way we're getting as many poxy beachball-quality decisions this season.[/ifthebestplayersstayandjovanovicisamazing]

I'd snap your arm off for 4th place.

 

All the UEFA cup games are going to be a distraction, I hope he plays the kids in the cups.

 

Uefa cup is probably our best chance of a trophy for the next few years, we should take it seriously

 

we are not aston villa

 

your first statement is a really sad indication of where we are at the moment, when only 18 months ago we were the number one ranked team in europe and we were beating real madrid by four goals

You do realise that if you back someone to win the league you don't have to support them, don't you?

 

 

Yes, any idiot would. The fact you needed to ask that question makes me wonder what other pearls of wisdom you have for us Phil??!! lol

 

ps. Just for future convo's, I'm aware that water's wet, fire's hot etc etc

Take the bet. Put at least a grand on it. You'll be a forum hero.

 

 

I have taken the bet. Sadly my finances are shorter than a midgit on it's knees at the mo' so £20 is all I could blow.

 

It seems utterly stupid!, complete waste of money.

 

But then coming back from 3 goals down against A.C Milan in the space of 10 minutes even now seems a ridiculous statement.

 

Game on.

the difference is that was a one off game, and we had a world class manager
