Too optimistic, too soon? Hide contents 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.

Happy Face 29 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30495 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) 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. Edited May 15, 2017 by Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 70 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I imagine Rafas' target will be top 10-12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLF 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.

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Canny goal by Janmaat. Wonder if he's regretting it yet? I dont think he's been a regular at Watford this season and they've had a bit of a poor, nothingness of a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
