We’re 5 points from a Europa spot. It is definitely achievable.
Certainly is, but I’m not sure we’ll be consistent enough to overhaul Wolves and Spurs, not to mention Arsenal if Arteta gets them going. I think a lot depends on whether we improve the team this month.

There not improving thought are they, Spurs have 1 point in 2 games and now Kane’s our injured. As for Wolves, I think the amount of games will catch up to them in the end, all but SU are still in Europe
 
Let down by the signings of Koeman and Brands there last night. No guts, no composure, and completely reactive players away from Goodison.

THAT'S why we can guarantee he wont be sitting back allowing Brands to make the running in any transfer deals upcoming. Ancelotti will be in total control of that. He can see what a huge and expensive balls up those two Dutchmen have made and he wont go down in flames because of them and their atrocious player-judgement he inherited.
 

He needs big name players and he is used to training them.
If we go down the road of buying "up and coming youngsters like kean" then it's pointless having ancelotti here.
Have a squad capable of challenging for cl and trophies that's why ancelotti is here.

If Chelsea can get past ffp so can we.

What do you think will happen to the Brands role now?
 
Surprised looking at the back 3 against City why he doesn't play Baines at left side and Holgate replacing Coleman.

Baines - Mina - Holgate

Baines is a far better footballer than Coleman and left sided so transitions the play faster because he is more natural on the left.
 
Oh, he’s up there too. Iwobi rivals anyone, though. Just one terrible player.
It’s easy to say a player is either brilliant or [Poor language removed], there’s no in between with you. He’s had some good games and some poor games. I think there’s a player there in the correct position and a top coach. Give him some time he’s had a couple of niggling injuries, hopefully he will finish the season strong in a better team

Baines is also too slow for the premier league which is probably why Coleman plays.
 
They’ve been a bit flaky this season but City are the best team in Europe when they’re on their game. Going there with injuries to Bernard Gomes and Gbamin was never going to be easy.

Ancelotti needs his squad, and frankly there’s only so much he can do with players like Siggurdson Davies Keane Coleman etc. asking them to compete against the likes of De Bruyne away from home is a difficult task.

Ancellotti’s assessment is right. We could have done more with the ball but the players are too timid. Hopefully he’s drumming this into them for the FA cup game so there’s no repeat.
 
Seeing Coleman mentioned a lot here, thought he played well yesterday myself and has a place in Ancelotti's plans
Thought Coleman looked good when he drove forward with purpose. The whole team was guilty of going back to Pickford too much. It’ll need time to get that coached out of them.
