Im so depressed now. I thought we would win this game, i thought we would win this trophy. I just felt it inside. That im too good a person to be this badly shite on for a whole season.
I don’t know what weve done to deserve this seriously i don’t. Ive given Rafa a bunch of shit for most of the season, just really for someone to blame for all of our shortcomings, when in truth hes as much a victim as i am.
Im totally lost tonight, not just because we have lost a semi final and it hurts, not just because i look out at the players on show tonight and think they just aren’t up to scratch, not just because Manchester United have every chance of being the most successful domestic team in England. But most of all because we are so far behind, or have lagged so far from where we need to be that it just doesn’t seem feasible that a summer (in particular one with a world cup slap bang in the middle of it) is going to be in any way enough to even begin to address all the problems we have as a club right now. And that fact makes me desperately miserable because it means we have another season of nothing but transition and instability to come. And a season with no European cup football.
Will we have money? Will we have new owners? If we do get them we need them within about a month for it to give us any hope of setting off next season with more than a passing hope of winning anything at all. Most importantly where do we go from here when it comes to the league? Do we have a manager who can win it?
How far away is our team from competing at the top level? How far away is our squad from sustaining any kind of challenge?
Its torn me apart this season, because i believed so whole heartedly that we would do it. I don’t think i will ever feel sure that we even can do it again. I used to go into every single season thinking that maybe wed get it right this year. But this year. THIS YEAR i actually believed we would win it. All the bad luck, bad choices, bad play, bad tactics, bad management and bad attitude was the ruination of everything i hoped for. I don’t blame Rafa for everything. He was shit on by bad decisions early on this year. He has had rubbish luck again with injuries and worst of all the press in this country hate him and have taken great pleasure in ripping him apart this year. That said hes made too many mistakes and left us with what can only be described as a paper thin squad. The real and genuine concern now being of course that Carragher is into his 30’s as will Gerrard be by pre season, if he remains loyal to the club. The vultures will be circling ready to pick off Torres, Mascherano, Reina etc should the owners new or old blink. Thats a massive concern, but its just one bubble in a frothing sea of worry and stress about the coming months.
Firstly will we find a buyer. Will they be sound financially and have the interests of the club at heart. When we last sold out club it was apparently with the intention of finding sound and decent football people to take us forward and look how that worked out. So what can we expect from two shyter crooks? Surely they will just take the top money they can get for us and damn the torpedoes. If thats the case then what will we get? Asset stripers? We need sound financial people but people who understand football and our club and history and its weight and its place in our hearts and its place at the centre of its community and fanaticism and love and pride. Wether we get that or not i worry. We are climbing out of the frying pan but into what?
Rafa. Is he staying, is he going. If he stays can he learn. Can he change. All the evidence suggests he just cant change and what we see is what we get and that if he stays we will see more of the same. Will that be good enough if indeed he is supported financially. Will better players playing under the same rigid stoical tactics breathe new life into the club or will it be more of the same but with different letters on the back of our shirts? If he goes where do we go from here? For sale, rudderless, out of Europe, paper thin squad, disaffected playing staff, an entire coaching staff and system selected by and geared towards the former manager. Jeesus.
Torres. Injury. Is that it now, can we expect an Owen like decline as more and more muscles and ligaments boom and ping all over the place. So what do we do. The offers will come the offers will be worth taking a moment to soak in, but do you sell and start again, or do you stick with a player who its looking strongly like will only be able to play half a season for the rest of his career. Does the money we receive if he is sold go to this leveraged debt or to Rafa or to a new manager.
Im starting to think the best thing for the club in these trying times is *spits* to keep Rafa.
Im really unhappy and depressed and i cant even look forward to the weeks preceeding the next season because once again those premiership years programmes will just mention us in passing and then roll on Neville or Terry holding up a trophy we have never even lifted.
And what of Manchester City. What of Arsenal, they will get it right eventually. They earn ONE MILLION pounds more per home game than us. They have these kids and Vermaelen, Rosicky, Nasri, Fabregas, Van Persie, Diaby, Song they aren’t far away from getting it bang right. The other Manchester team will spend, as will Chelsea and Tottenham will strengthen for sure in particular if they pip City into Europe.
I don’t know what hope i can take from what we have seen since August, there isn’t a single absolute positive i can think of. Torre (what if he stay injured) Gerrard (what if he leaves) Mascherano (going)....Wait....i Have one
Reina. I love you Pepe you baldy wonderful cunt.
