That's it Papp. I don't think a lot of people realise the reality of how players think. More work for the same money, more time away from your family and no additional profile for playing in the tournament.
With regards to Sals bullet points there's a lot of factors there that I agree with and only people within will truly know.
The most obvious reason for me is the injuries our best players were carrying, lack of business in January and Nuno's resistance to play beyond the 12/13 players he trusts.
The game management was questionable towards the end of the season but we probably only noticed that because our best players stopped firing. The same game management was considered genius when we were winning. Which probably opens the door for the plan B bullet points and teams sussing us out.
We all would have took 7th at the start of the season but this will always be the season remembered as the one where we should have finished in the top 5.
The progress we made was a joy to watch until the end but I do fear the instability this might bring going into next season.
