Well, last season was....something. On the bright side, we actually finished in the top 4....2nd in fact. That's practically stratospheric compared to the past few seasons. But when you're 19 points behind 1st, 2nd doesn't feel much like 2nd. And no trophies. Say what you will about the Europa League or the FA Cup but they added hardware to the trophy case.
So, we roll into 2018-19 with a whole slew of questions. Will Mourinho be able to truly turn this team into a contender? If he doesn't by December, will he be around next May? Will players like Martial and Rashford, who not long ago seemed like they'd be fixtures in the squad for years be around to start the season?
