Got it.

What are your expectations for this next season? I still can’t believe we found ourselves in 6th at one point after how unbelievably pitiful they looked to start last season.

They do anything to build on that or would it be foolish to expect a better finish this next go-round?

I think the squad is too thin - particularly at full back and on the wing - to truly compete in Europe and the prem, so it's going to be interesting to see how we prioritise as Unai is known for European competitions.

If we focus on the league I see no reason we can't compete for top 6. Watkins fitness is key, I like Archer a lot but if he's our only option I would worry (Duran supposedly going on loan)


Side note - Olsen is awful. We need a new number 2

Jaden is getting quite the props in this interview

What does focus on the league mean? What else would they focus on?

I think I’m going to see them in Orlando on Wednesday. I’ve only ever been to Rowdies games so I’m pretty excited.

At least fans of this sport think it sucks that Saudi is buying so many great players.

In the busy times of the league we will be playing in Europe on Thursday and prem on Sunday. It's not realistic to expect players like Watkins, Buendia, Kamara etc to play every game so the starting XI will need to be rotated. If you focus on the league you rotate for Europe, if you focus on Europe you rotate for the prem.

Read it, read it again. Read it aloud, read it aloud again. Surely you expect WAAAAAAAAY too much from FIFA.
