We lost 3 games last season and now we have gone back to what we are good at, we have won the last 3, is that a coincidence?

As for the league probably not, but it gives clubs like ours hope.

Well done to Leicester. Colossal effort. I still think they have been very lucky with who they have played. They haven't really played a quality team yet and are through to the quarter final stages. That's what happens when you are seeded. Get an easy group and its why Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, man Utd did so well and made so much money over the years. As a top seed you got to play all the easy clubs. Now that the rules have changed, Arsenal go out as soon as they get through their group.

Touch and go whether city will go through. I think the winner will come from City or Monaco. Not impressed with bayern, Barca or Real Madrid.

Beating Arsenal 10 - 2 on aggregate is quite impressive imho.

You simply ain't got a clue, Ranieri stopped us doing what we was good at pressing teams.

Once that happened he always going to fail.

Some bitter folk on here Foxy and no mistaking. Anyway, my take on it? Ranieri, the original tinkerman presumably bought into the "They'll be found out next season" diatribe and instead tried to change the method despite keeping most of the personnel. Obviously Kante was a huge loss, but again one player doesn't make a title-winning side. As I say from the outside looking in and basing my live experience on the games between our sides (home and away) Shakey has them playing to their strengths again.

Last night, I found myself willing Leicester to win again, as I and many more did last season. Still find it amazing how scousers, still awaiting that elusive PL win have so much to say:lol:. I'm sure you don't need me to remind you to enjoy ever second of it.;)

Definitely agree on the second point. Hate when managers lower expectations.

Money is helpful but if you don't have alot you find other ways to compete, good scouting etc.

On your first point, you cant say youve turned a corner after 3 games. Lets see what shakes does next season.
