My expectations and predictions are aligned.
We’ll sell Blind, Darmian and Martial at minimum. We’ll pay top money to bring in the 3-4 players in the positions we need to, including a fluid hard-working attacker who can interchange left/supporting centre/right with Sanchez.
We might not win the league but we’ll be in the mix with City & Liverpool, running both close. The gap will be <10 points between 1st and 3rd.
And yet I also predict that if we’re close, but not close enough, many on this forum will ignore this progress and point to Anthony Martial’s 20-25 goals for a non-elite European non-rival as the reason for our “failure.”
City and Liverpool will also spend loads and this will be conveniently ignored. Because we should win everything, always.
Nutshell:
League - Winners or 2/3 wins short. 1st-3rd.
Europe: Dunno, draw dependant.
