    Going to change my answer. Too often, it seems like we've been targeting entirely the wrong thing. Like, the fans in row eight. The hoardings, frequently. Sometimes a steward with their back turned. Next year, we ought to target the goal. If more of the squad can focus on that target, I feel like we could get some results.

    Still the same for me, think we should be aiming for the Europa League as I think this is the best squad/manager we may have for a few years and it gives us a good chance of keeping it together.

    Anything better than that would be stellar of course.

    Any top half finish would still be a success though in the grand scheme.

    Stick to my original vote - aim for Europa but top half is still a decent season

    I voted for Europa qualification, but upon reflection, with clubs like Barca, Real M, Juventus and Liverpool all struggling domestically, I now think we can win the CL next season so should aim for that.

    Careful, don't jinx the reverse-jinxes that used to be jinxes.
