We are languishing in 10th, 8 points behind ‘struggling’ Man United. Defense is leaking goals, attack is largely misfiring and players are losing discipline.
The mentality has also become like that of a mid-table team. Nothing in and around the club screams world class at the moment.
I just don’t find many differences between Chelsea and say, Crystal Palace (apart from the wages and all). As fans, should we also have a mid-table mindset? Satisfied with draws against the big boys and finishing the season with 45-50 points?
Eeeggh sort of.
I mean man U, yeah… But Arteta has his detractors before he got the balance right. There was an “Arteta out” movement at one point, even if it wasn’t as widespread as the media might want us to think it was.
