I'll have a pint of what you're drinking.
Seriously though, we have to get past the Chelsea game pronto. This team is not strong enough to perform without the fans behind it.

In 2024 - We are literally only one point worst off than others.. The way some are acting you would think they all had double the amount of points we have gained - we have also lost the least of of these teams
Forest 2 wins in 13 - 10 points those 13 games
Luton 2 wins in 14 - 10 points in 14 games
Everton 1 win in 12 - 9 points those 12 games
Burnley 1 win in 13 - 9 points those 13 games
Sheff Utd 1 win in 12 - 7 points those 12 games

In the real world, once again no we wont. A win wont mean we are safe yet, while defeat wont mean we are relegated either

Benitez was a busted flush when he got here. However, your point about successive managers is fair enough, we really have got to stop appointing very, very poor managers. Ancelotti is the one exception going back a long time.

1997/1998 was much worse
We have Englands number 1 goalkeeper, the best young Centre back in the country, a Belgium international midfielder, throw in the likes of Tarkwoski, DCL etc.!

Onana is just barmby 15 years later , both cost a few quid both missed big pens both very underwhelming
Already responded. There's a few like Speed and Stuart who is missing from your list - sold that season, but still scored 10 goals for us. For me, Speed, Stuart, Barmby, Hutchinson all walk into this team - as does Ferguson. Tbf, I'd have Watson and Short in ahead of Tarkowski too.
That team finished on 40 points. I'd take that now. And again next season.
Last season we finished with our lowest ever points total. And lowest goal scorers in the whole league.
This season - Only Sheff Utd have scored less than us and we've broken a club record for most games without victory.
In my view, scoring the least in the league, and second least in consecutive seasons, contributing towards our lowest ever points total and club record for games without a win supports the view that this is our worst ever Premier League squad. You need to be capable of scoring goals - we aren't.
We have individual players who aren't anywhere near the worst we've ever had, but as a squad - balance, depth, pace... ability to score goals - I think this is our worst for competing and the results show it.

Dave Watson was 38! Of course Tarkowski in his current state is better than a 38 year old Watson!
DCL - 208 games 52 goals
Ferguson, up to 1997-98 103 games 33 goals
There is a debate to be had there over DCL or Ferguson, but there goal records are pretty similar!
In fact, I'll give you Ferguson as he got 11 goals that season! But i'd argue over both there Everton careers, Calvert Lewin has been more consistant!
