So what are we realistically hoping for this summer and then for the coming season?

Remembering we are on a 3-5 year recovery now.

Realistically a style of play that’s identifiable and 11 players who look like they know what they are doing, care and put a shift in. That’s literally all i'm hoping for.

Some fight some passion and players who can actually play proper football
Not rocket science.

A simple hope that some of the whingers decide they want an easy life and move to another club.

This summer for me it's more about getting the right players out than who we sign. One bad apple can spoil the whole fruit bowl.

I don't care if it mean having to promote 4-5 youngsters to fill the holes in the squad. We cannot afford to keep players who could derail the new regime.

Beyond getting those players out of the club I'd hope to see 4, 5 or even 6 new players come in to the squad to start to give it the right sort of look for EtH. The players who come in don't need to be superstars, but players with the right technical skills and mental aptitude to play the style EtH wants and with the right attitude.

For next season I'd want to see far more application from the players, determination and fight. I'd like to see EtH's style start to be implemented and see the team start to take shape.

Performance wise, I'd expect us to finish anywhere between 6th and 4th.

Realistically we aren't going to get close to Liverpool or City in a single summer. 10-15 points better off should be the minimum target.

We should be in and around Arsenal, Spurs and maybe Chelsea next season, looking to compete with them depending on what sort of summers they have and how they do next season. Both Spurs and Chelsea have the potential with Tuchel and Conte to make big signings that can have a big impact on their season. While Arsenal are steadily improving.

How high we finish next season will depend as much on how those team progress/ regress as it will on how much we improve.

Some direction from the manager along with proper signings. Players who have character as well as skill.

Realistically I would hope that ETH gets us to be defensively sound. Without that foundation we will never get a chance to win a trophy and I don't mean by playing with a back four plus two holding midfielders.
