Ok, so where is everyone’s head at regarding this season? As currently constructed, I think the ceiling is a 6th place finish. We’ve addressed almost none of our deficiencies, save for a solid signing in Jorginho. It seems like Sarri and the board plan to use this year to find out what we have with a lot of these young players. If so, I suppose I get it but I am concerned what 2 straight years without UCL football will do to the prestige of the club. That kind of absence could impact both our ability to attract new players AND our ability to retain the elite players we have on the roster. Hazard will have one foot out the door with Courtois moving to Madrid anyway, and the sharks have already started to circle for Kanté. Speaking of Courtois, I have no earthly idea what the board is thinking there. It’s painfully clear that he’s not signing an extension and wants to play football closer to his kids. They needed to lock up a top flight replacement this summer and at least salvage some of his value by way of a transfer fee. Total failure to get to this point by the board, and their apathy continues to negatively impact this club in material ways. I’m sure Mo will be by shortly to admonish me for not thinking positive thoughts, but I’m tired of watching the board sit back and do nothing.
