Yet have two trophies in a couple years and we have nothing in my lifetime. Yeah and the approach to both those finals was spot on.

We did very well to finish as high as we did; unfortunately Chelsea had a barnstorming final third and punished our mistakes. C'est la vie. The problem today is that most of us thought City would walk the final so 7th last week looked like a good season with European qualification that has now been taken off us.

ExiledGeordie Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 It’s on us really, faltered at the finish. Winning big games when it matters isn’t in our DNA yet. Man U have had the shittest team in years and still won two trophies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Meh, really annoying but telling myself that no distractions gives us a proper good crack at it, while others take on extra burdens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I do have to say that anyone relying on us being in the Conference League to actually sign with us is probably not someone we want long-term. Bruno, Isak, and others have signed without guarantee of Europe. Our project should speak for itself without the third tier of European competition.

alexf Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I'm only upset because it felt like conference league would be a good opportunity to win something next year. I guess we can put even more focus on domestic cups and the league but it's still gutting to miss out to those cunts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who are saying it will give us a clear tilt at next season are missing that we would have had a great chance of winning a cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginola14 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 European football would've been a sign of good progress City's hungover no show in the first half today has robbed us of that and a realistic chance of winning a trophy really does feels like this club is cursed sometimes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And presumably you can qualify for ECL by finishing around midtable in German/Italian leagues due to extra places and Atalanta winning Europa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youre allowed to say it, but its such a shit comment. Doesnt give any insight other than youre not happy, which means fuck all to 100% of the forum. Please give some thoughts on what couldve been done better as we are all disappointed with how things went, but its easy to see why Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1pe Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I’m not going to pretend I didn’t want to be in the conference league because any European football would have been beneficial to this squad. That said, us not being in it and I assume Chelsea dropping from the Europa to that isn’t exactly the end of the world. Big European push next season.
