After some challenges to even get CL, this season we have done it comfortably.

Lets take a moment to respect this fact!
 
Good but we're not Arsenal. Only took us £200m. Now improve the football.
 
What next, congrats for getting in the top ten?

We set out to win the title and we failed miserably
 
Win our game in hand on Friday and we will go EIGHT points clear of worshipped Liverpool.
 
Sorry but Top 4 is the minimum any United manager should achieve
 
Job well done in getting the CL spot trophy. He deserves a new 10 yrs contract with a guaranteed half billion transfer fee every season.
 
Very stable ground we're standing on. Lot of people forget that consistency is the first step in getting back up top.
 
Bare minimum. Now get second. Next season needs to mount a serious title challenge.
 
Anything bad - need to clear those players out. Anything good - well done Mourinho.
 
TBF I said at xmas when you had those three draws second half of season could go two ways, either comfortably secure second or struggle to get it like Chelsea have.

So in that respect Mourinho has done well.
 
What a stunning achievement.

Less about that and more about finally trimming off the massive turd that stuck around after SAF left until now! We might not have the SAF wax shine, but at least we are back to the VIP room, not stuck trying to creep in through the rubbish disposal room!

Are we arsenal? its something we should be doing every year. I hope Jose doesnt have this mentality thta he's accomplished anything today other than 3 more points
 
Hooray, we reached the bare minimum after spending loads. Not something to be celebrated for one of the biggest clubs in the world.

And there wasn't much competition. Chelsea and Arsenal are way behind.

This place is becoming a bit Arsenal/Liverpool in their ways to be honest. Any concern is seen as negativity and top 4/progress is being celebrated.

Yeah I remember the state of the forum then, most people would have taken comfortable 2nd.

It’s really boils down only the Sevilla game, win that and everyone accepts the year of improvement, kinda like winning Europa League last year was the difference between acceptable and unacceptable.
 
Yes well done to him. But more improvements needed. Next season this alonenwont be accepted.
 
Can't wait for the DVD!
 
With the correct signings this summer, we will be considerably better
 
Go and support City if you can't appreciate progress!

Arsenal and Liverpool have been "progressing" for decades now. Arsenal finished second again recently after years of finishing 4th. And just so you know I do appreciate progress but I'm not going to CELEBRATE it like Liverpool or Arsenal.
 
The title of the thread should be updated to 'well done Mourinho, you're not sacked'.

Man. City just been on another level really. 100 + points. Don't think Man. United's league level has been that different to when you won the league in 2011 or 2013.

Think winning the FA cup is important though otherwise Liverpool could then trumpt it as 2nd or 3rd is minimal difference.
 
Miserable bunch

Damn straight. I'm ecstatic.

Some people forgetting that we don't have SAF the genius any more and hitting the top spots is no guarantee especially against a couple of cash rich billionaires! We've comfortably beaten last years Champions who looked unbeatable! And we have a chance to stick a nail in the coffin at the FA Cup final.
 
Everything is better this season, apart from the style of play, which is still....I'm not sure what our style of play is.

But it's a clear improvement and that's the bottom line. It'll be hard to improve on it next season, that's the odd thing, unless City do what recent champions have done and collapse after winning the league.

I just want to enjoy watching us more, we're getting the results, but I'd love to be enthralled by us more often.
 
Meh... with the players we have and the way we play we won't be winning shit in Europe.
