I think my concern, really, is more about next season. I dont personally massively buy the fatigue element yet, and I think Inzaghi is just not a great manager. 11 defeats could easily happen again next season without a deep run into the CL, at which point we're going to be left up shit's creek without a paddle.
Obviously I hope I'm wrong, and to the point I've made a few times, it mneeds to be a part of an end of season discussion to understand the failings this year. Specifically:
- How do we try to manage our strikers better so we dont have a long dead spell from all of them at the same time
- How do we fix our defense so we aren't as leaky as we have been until recent weeks
- How do we avoid 11 defeats in the league again next year
- What investment does Inzaghi need to make this team competitive for the league title
- Why have, effectively only 1-3? of our players actually developed under Inzaghi, and the rest regressed if not stayed the same
If the board can get satisfactory answers and thoughts to those questions, then its fine. But thats my point about the "luck" of the CL - next season we might not get lucky, and a season where 80% of the time our maximum points total in the league puts us outside of the CL places without a good run into the CL would be a disaster for this club.
Anyway, I Think i've laboured my point long enough
