We can't even cope with 1 game a week, let alone 2!!

In what context Billy?

Poch claiming our players were tired against Sheffield Utd on Sunday after a home game against Utd on the Thursday. Imagine if they had to play in Europe very week!!

I want the conference league. No point us being in the champions league as we will be cannon fodder. Thought Europa League was achievable given other teams around us from, but the Burnley and Sheffield United results rendered that unlikely. Conference League is unfortunately our level at the moment, if that. I'd expect to win it if we were in it mind.

You wouldn’t play the same XI in every game, twice a week, rotation is key which I mention in the article

We haven't had a fit squad all season & a manager petrified to play the academy players!! If we didn't have an injury crisis & a manager willing to play the likes of Castledine, George etc then 100% we should play in it. Could argue that's how Saka was discovered/introduced to the first team at Arsenal under Emery but unfortunately I don't see Poch doing that. He preferred to play a CB at LB as opposed to Maatsen at the beginning of the season!!

Totally agree. It’s the type of experience our players will need if we are to get back to the top.

If we can play European football we should target it indeed, Luke. Though I doubt it we'll play European football next season.

It can be top 8 this season even with the iffy results/performance of late we can achieve top 8

Let's hope we'll get some good results to play in Europe again!!
