I’d love to see us play in Europe but not sure the club would be welcoming the conference league.

I don’t think our squad is big enough meaning more quality on the bench. That means another season in the PL consolation with our current club of players plus new faces in the summer might be ready the following season 2027 for Europe

We are 23 games in and in a brilliant position to either kick on or not.

Easy to say rebuild in the summer but we are in a great position to not have to wait until May to progress.

Kick on to what? What do you want? What is so important it has to be done by May...are u wanting Europe is that it? I don't get all the urgency you seem to be implying. We need stability and sustainability in my view, but each to their own.

What do you think stability and sustainability will get us?? What does it even mean?

January is where you get shafted in the market and can knacker you down the line with SCR from next season etc. Very very rare the right player becomes available in January really. If they do, we will sign them. But there’s no point really desperately chasing anything or paying a stupid price in a high risk gamble.

Case in point. Tom Cannon this time last year.

Who the hell is manufacturing a crisis.

I’m saying we are halfway through the season 3 points off 4th and have a week left of the window.

No crisis but what happens in the next 7 days likely decides our season in terms of do we stick or twist

Look sir… I would suggest the following
1 we have already spent(well) £150 million quid and we need to give minutes to those players before we throw more money at a big squad,
2. Our season has been decided already by losing only 6 games out of 23 and sitting on 33 points.
3. Demanding that we spend more in an inflated window whilst sitting on an inflated squad to pursue a European adventure is madness. Settle and balance the squad in the summer for a second season which will be tougher, without the drain of the Conference League. Then see where it takes us .
4. Give the squad we have the support they deserve and enjoy the end of season rather than rage about the owners lack of ambition. He deserves much much more.
5. Please don’t turn Magesque with pretensions of entitlement. Please don’t do that,

It means we won’t be back in League One in three seasons staring administration in the face.

It’s no guarantee of that even, we were in the league ten years last time before we did that, Luton were one of very few to make a profit in the premier league and look where they are now.
 
It’s a bit of a stretch to say it’s a massive week, however we do need to bounce back against Burnley just to keep the season on track. Another loss and a few results and we’d find ourselves looking behind again.

What are people going on about? And having a head loss for?

We are virtually safe, only lost 6 games in 23. We will win more games, we won't be anywhere near relegation and will fall short of Europe.

We will probably finish between 9th-14th.

A fantastic season

We might struggle to win without Xhaka and now our defence seems to be cracking. We could be in for a few massacres if Xhaka is out for 8 weeks. It's his leadership and experience keeping us concentrating and organised.

Snapped your arm off in August for that scenario.
