How many oil clubs are there badgering us now ? We beat Chelsea's oil club and only PSG and City are there in CL and they were never in our path. You are giving bias attention to the financial side. Do you know we have the 8/9th biggest salary in Europe after the 4 English side, 1 German,1 French and 2 Spanish clubs. The point is , we are not peasants and financially even we haven't been on top we are still the the top 8 in Europe. Surely, you can use financial as a reason we are unable to compete with the likes of Gala, Copenhagen and Benfica. That's absurd. Giving excuse on financial , is like Benitez moaning about our superiority in the league due to our financial turnover.
I think some are skeptical of Conte in Europe partly due to the an improved level of expectation due to how easy we are coasting the league especially with the record breaking season.
I mean surely after our dominance in the league there is a level of increased expectations in Europe.
