The ownership picture is the most importantly issue at the club now that needs to be resolved. We’re in a holding pattern until that’s resolved. Fortunately we’ve been in the PL during this period and might just limp into the new stadium but we’ve still probably got 12-24 months of this before anything substantial changes at the macro level.
New owner, new board of directors, resolution on DOF and manager positions, another year of PS&R easing, a gradual improvement of the squad within PS&R limits over a couple of windows. That’s all just to see us stable in the prem in a new stadium. At that point a new structure might have been in place long enough to start turning the dial but everything until that point is just different shades of how do you like your mid table?
We’ll lose some weeks, we’ll win some weeks, we’ll end up probably similar to where we were in the table last season. People can vent their spleen if they want over individual games, moments, decisions, but honestly even if we’d won 3-0 yesterday it isn’t changing that overall bigger picture unfortunately. Until Moshiri and Textor (or another) come to an agreement, we remain in this limbo.
