How much of a red flag is it, if you're an ambitious player in your prime?
I don't think there's another supposed top club in European football, who are so willing to write off a season. We wrote off 13/14 in about October/November when it was obvious we weren't challenging for a title under Moyes and then double whammied it by writing off the following season when it looked more and more likely we weren't going to be playing in the CL.
We did the same in 18/19 when we let Mourinho sink the ship to the point the title was written off in October and then Top 4 was always going to be almighty battle by the time Mourinho was sacked. And here we are again, titles 95% written off and if we drop anymore points to Spurs or City its a 100% written off. And top 4 itself is going to be a battle by the end of the city game - so next season will also be another write off, as there's a chance we don't feature in the CL.
