The point is everyone can say they are better than their worst results and if every team played to their best we'd still end up 5th at best, especially with no Pogba for the season.What's your point here?
I mean I agree it's suprising we're 5th, I mean last season 31 points after 21 games would've had us in joint 7th, a full 13 points off the top 4.
And let's not make out we're fielding a side of cheapos man , nearly every week we are miles more expensive that the opposition with De Gea, AWB 50m, Maguire 80m, Lindelöf 35m, Fred 50m, Martial 45m.
And quite clearly Ole rates every single one of those players and has shipped out players in order to build his future side around them.
Transfer fee paid doesn't always equal quality especially where we're concerned. Even Newcastle's front 3 cost them £80m. We aren't miles ahead on spending any more.
I'd swap Lindelof for most of centre backs in the league myself, it was a bad decision to let Smalling go. Fred has only recently started to show he's any use at all for the £50m fee.
