Now the ambition has moved away from Europe and onto midtable then there needs to be more emphasis on the entertainment.
Pragmatic football is acceptable as a means to an end to stay up or to make an unlikely run for the top 6 as seemed a possibility in February. It's not acceptable for an also ran though, particularly when you are being charged entertainment industry prices.
As we are now only in the PL to make the numbers up, I'd like to see the FA Cup taken seriously. The chances are the final will be Big 6 v Big 6, but another semi shouldn't be out of the question with the right attitude and luck with the draw.
Hopefully this won't be the year we go down, the type of team we want to be always does sooner or later.
Finally, I'd like to see some honesty from Lage pre and post match and consistency on his recruitment statements.
