Sorry Bruno, you worked magic, you got us within touching distance of the top four, but we let you down.

We loaned out a game changing dangerous forward and brought in next to nothing. We didn’t reinforce our midfield, despite Joao now being injured and having no cover.

We aren’t bothered about pressing on and trying to break the top 6, we aren’t willing to invest.

Jeff / Fosun let you down.

I for one, am excited about the away end in Spurs, service should be good again I'd hope.

After the last 180 minutes of football, it's very hard to disagree.

Fosun/Shi just don't seem truly hungry to push the club forwards anymore.

I feel very sorry for Lage and the players themselves. The silly thing is that such minimal ambition will just lead to a gradual drip of our better players slowly wanting to go and that we really aren't that far off from breaking into the financial boom of European football if we would just finally address the positions every single fan can see needs addressing.

I'm sure they must have sold Lage the promise of bringing in players when they approached him.

Not quite nothing. I like Chiquino and would have him over Trincao. He can cross a ball and is quick.

We have but geezes with Arsenal a player down you've got to pepper the middle of the field, instead Podence, Chiqo, Semedo, RAN etc are all way way out wide trying to play around a team a man down - the tactics were terrible that last 25 mins.

Whoever decided that the way to go about the January transfer window was to make us worse and weaken us is a genius.

February could well see us mid table and nothing realistic to play for.

Fair he looks like he has potential, but to lose a seasoned veteran like Traore and bring in an untested kid isn’t pushing for too 4.

Hope he turns out amazing mind.
Agreed. To me it just makes the possible Trincao a no go for a signing. In Jeff we trust.

Pretty disappointed but we need an overhaul big summer ahead, some players are just not good enough and need to move on.
These are the pretty much the same players that got us 2 7ths and within touching this season of top 4. They will come good again. Its 2 poor games. Apart from man city and liverpool no one is winning game after game.

Always thought it was strange that we made such a huge decision to sack Nuno and then didn’t really back Lage financially in the Summer.

For him to then do as well as he has, publicly state in December that he wanted new players and then end the January window weaker than we started it is hugely frustrating.

The most frustrating thing is we’re really not that far away from being an extremely good side.

Bore off
Top 4 was never realistic
At the start of the season most had Lage gone by the first international break
Chiqinho has looked good

Think your right mate, but losses at home against a poor relegation side and another side who have been in poor form is hard to take.

The bloke has no chance, Moutinho to Dendoncker is a huge drop off. We all knew this and yet, FOSUN failed to address it. Squad depth is nowhere near good enough for European football.
It's nowhere near good enough for Premier League football never mind European

Whoever thought we were challenging top 4 is deluded. We havent thrown away anything apart from maybe a chance at 7th. Even then it was unlikely.

It was nice to think we’re in with a shot of getting top 4, but realistically we’re not quite there. Having said that though, we’re still in with a chance of a Europa spot.

Have to say though, there are some right nutters on here! Anybody would think we are bottom 3.

Some of you need to go and get some therapy or something. Can’t believe the negativity and how quick some are to right us off! Same folks still bleating about a January window that still doesn’t guarantee anything, even if Fosun had spent 30 or 40 Million.

Don’t know how some of you lot get through a day.

Just being realistic. I dont think we are anywhere near top 4 and were never in with a shout. You dont get top 4 scoring less than Newcastle.
Still been a good season though and bruno has been a brilliant appointment. Just some people need a reality check. We're a worse squad than the teams above us and havent got any cutting edge. Those two things mean you dont get European football.

Hwang back soon. Whilst he doesn't have a great all around game he has scored more than a 5th of our league goals in like 10 games worth of minutes
