One supporter of hacking argued that without it "you will do away with the courage and pluck of the game, and I will be bound to bring over a lot of Frenchmen who would beat you with a week's practice -Blackheath secretary at first meeting of the F.A

Equally, I think it's embarrassing that some think we should be a top 5 team.

Not really the point being made that he is a miracle worker, financial we are not able to compete with the many of the clubs in the league. In terms of finance the big six are way out ahead of us add in Everton, Newcastle, West Ham and more recently Leicester at the next level down. Brighton, Aston Villa and Wolves have owners who have stuck fortunes into the clubs. That leaves really us in league with Fulham , West Brom , Sheffield United, Leeds, Southampton and Burnley as we have been in the premier for a longer time and had more time to build the squad it would be a fair point to say that we should be a the top of that group, if we had Danny Ings rather then Beneteke we might be.
As I was saying with Eaglescoop money doesn’t necessarily buy you success but there is going to be a good relationship between a club financial clout and where it ends up. No guarantee you not going to spend your £40-50m on Jolinton and not Aubameyang and no guarantee for £8-16, we are not going to get Sorloth and not Eze but at least with more money you usually at least get a better quality of mistake. Ok I’m stretching the point a bit but if you predicted the league based on turnover you probably won’t be to0 far off how it ends up.
Teams with the big ideas and approaches have come and gone Swansea lovely passing possession football, Watford’s international network of clubs, Bournemouth big money owner, Sheff United over lapping centre back and organized chaos, Brighton’s data analytics approach. Wolves super agents are dropping rapidly and Leeds murder ball style might be great it might be disastrous the best that can be said about it at the moment is fantastic when it works but very fragile.
Roy is not a miracle worker he is very competent high level manager who does the tried and tested very well and I’m not sure who else we would get in at our level with our budget who would do better.

I don't think I've ever seen or heard anyone say that ever.
