This is the START

Careful, you might bring some sensibility to this board ..

Likelihood is we will finish the season somewhat like this

- Cheat$ki and Scum beaten by taking the game to them (outplayed)
- An academy striker with a 30 goal season in his first season starting)
- Two midfielders with double figure outputs
- Multiple youth/academy/english players a part of full squad with pipeline to more (Ali/Pritchard/etc.)
- World class keeper
- Wembley cup final
- 6th place in PL (7th in worst case)

First 11 identified with weakness clearly known (ability to target upgrades)

Manager proven to handle himself well, and with full season and preseason to start next.

My question is, based on last 2-3 years, if offered the above at start of season, which of you wouldn't have taken it?

I think yes, I would have taken it. My expectations were managed from the start of Poch's era. What you have outlined is a pretty decent season and a very good foundation for next season.

IMO Poch has done a very good job and personally I am delighted we have him.
