What have you done in the UCL that shows what? You scraped through your group on the final day and are only in the SF on the basis of away goals and VAR ruling out a goal which would have sent you out
We started slow in the groups then made an incredible comeback when this entire forum had written us off.
We then knocked out the 2nd best team in Germany 4-0 over two legs, before beating the best team in England. The VAR decision was correct.
You don't get to a CL semi final without playing well. Sadly I think we've overly focused on that and grown complacent in the league.
Overall though, I think we've been hit very hard by injuries this year, far harder than in the past. Certainly as a fan it's the worst injury hit season I can remember, with basically all our key players having lengthy periods on the sidelines, often simultaneously.
That said, it's no excuse. Bottom line is that the team has disappointed me in recent months you're right that I confidently backed us to get third, I believe that we had that quality but the table doesn't lie.
Too many under performers this season. Eriksen and Alli I'm looking at you mainly, props to Sissoko for stepping it up but a couple of his more talented teammates have sleepwalked through the year.
