The execution of the WUM was poor, too obvious.

I mean second no better than 3rd or 4th. It's demonstrably better

Arsenal second might get a nibble though.

It's not a WUM. 2nd grants nothing more than slightly more PL money than 3rd or 4th.

So it is better then.

In terms of what seemed to be the pre-season expectations:

City - where they should be
Liverpool - above predicted.
Spurs - above predicted
Arsenal - above expectations.
United - way below expectations
Chelsea - below where they were predicted


Some even had Arsenal below Everton


But to dismiss Europe and the domestic cups is pretty ridiculous. I'm sure Spurs, United, Chelsea and Arsenal would all take coming outside the top 4 if they won the respective European tournament they were in.

'Ultimately no better' meaning in the long run that slight difference in PL money is meaningless?

But it indicates a better performance during the course of the season. Correct?

Arsenal are about par for the course.

In the top 6 and outside the top 4.
Still in the Europa.

Emery is doing a good job imo with that squad because i'm not sure Xhaka should be paid money to play football and he's got you there while using him, that deserves credit

HOLD UP

I just looked up the table.

Okay Arsenal are above expectations.

We are in the top 4

If the league were to finish today I’d say there was a difference finishing second, 1 point away from winning the league, and third, twelve points behind.

posted on 15/3/19

A lot of people didn't see us as even challenging top 4 before the season started though. Our expected fight was with Everton rather than United.

posted on 15/3/19

Think we’re about where we should be, maybe over exceeding due to our good start. Still on the chase for top 4 despite a new manager, new pholosophy, under par squad, and got a cup final and in quarters of Europa.

Still been frustrating though.

Placing second means nothing. You dont get a trophy for it and it is not always indicative of the future therfore ultimately it is no different from the similar tangible benefits of 3rd and 4th

United finished second and this season are out of Top 4 atm. 2nd is not indicative of future placement.

I'd of been one of them to be fair

He's done well with what is a limited squad. Class strikers then patchy everywhere.

Imagine what he would do with the cash Chelsea, United, City or Liverpool spend. Dreams i imagine happen all over North London.

Ultimately 2nd is one place better than 3rd and two places better than 4th.

10 years down the line does anyone care if you finished 2nd or 4th? 1st comes with a trophy whereas the other 3 places come with benefit of CL.

Thats the true meaning of ultimately.

It's not.

2nd is better than 3rd or 4th. I'm not debating fact.

4. Liverpool - had a great season to push City all the way but ultimately 2nd is no better than 3rd or 4th, and they sacrificed all cups in their title push.
========

We have a quarter final CL game vs Porto.
