He played the best football of his career last season, now he's continuing the form, but playing in position against worse opposition.

Fair.

Whilst I agree 4 is too many, and it doesn't give us much leeway, it's not insurmountable. United lost 6 times on the way to the title in 2000 and Blackburn 12 times in 1994-5.

That said if this is our 'transitional season' and we start winning more PL and CL titl3s in the following 6-7 seasons, I'll take it.

They are 20+ years ago when title winning teams would lose around 6 or 7 and win the title but modern football has changed also since then.. Now it would be around 3 or 4

It's not like it's some formula, though. Teams don't often lose more than 5 and win a title but they often draw a shitload. Losing 4 so far isn't that much of a problem just in terms of points dropped, IF we were able to go on and produce last season's form from now on. But that's the big question.

They gave him the number fucking 9. They clearly lied to the boy

Fuck Villa. Hope we recall him January and find him a better destination. This is another wasted season for him and it's not helping his sale value for us.

Given that the threshold to make the signing mandatory is just 10 matches, it's likely he'll just not see the pitch for them.

Elliott just isn't as good as a lot of people think. He should've gone abroad.

He's coming back.

 

[Fabio]

It's sad.

Slot won't have him back. We'll just take a smaller price next summer

I mean, he'll be back on way or another. Yes, Slot will sell him to another team.

 

[Holle]

It's sad.

Slot won't have him back. We'll just take a smaller price next summer

He'll be long gone by then.

Jürgen will welcome Harvs back with open arms.
