Just looking at the hilarious gulf between Everton and the rest, I'd hope Rafa is eying top 10 tbh.  Too optimistic, too soon?

LOWERING EXPECTATIONS!

 

 

I imagine Benitez will simply have said I want this standard of player and league finish won't be explicitly spoken about. He'll want the right players to improve the chances of successfully carrying out his instructions. So replacing Gouffran in the first team with a left sided Ritchie, Lascelles with an experienced centre half capable of playing in the English top flight.

Best any promoted club from the championship have done is 8th

 

Think that's an excellent and realistic target for us given none of those promoted clubs had Rafa.

Football didn't start 2004-05. Typical skymag tbh. FTM. 6 in a row. MLF

The league below Everton in 7th is absoulte garbage tbh, 12 wins gets you 8th as it stands which seems really really low.

 

If we spend smartly over summer we'll be starting the season in as good a position as the majority of those teams.

Leicester win their remaining two games and they'll finish 8th on 49 points. As you allude to, it's not exactly an imposible task for a newly promoted side.

Edit: just checked and the same applies to West Brom / Southampton but with 51 points. Doesn't negate the point though. Not saying we should expect that but, like you say, the league's very ordinary below Everton.

:lol:

 

If we started banging on about repeating Keegan's instant title challenges we'd sharp get it in the neck for delusion and not appreciating how the game has changed in the last couple of decades.

 

I'll not pay Mackems any heed.

God, Terry was wank tonight.

It's sickening that Carrraghhhhh and Neville just refused to say he was shite too.

He's a cock but it was a nice touch playing him because he's been a great player for them.
