For me, it depends on our transfer window. If, under our new structure, we start to identify press resistant players and bring even one in this summer, I'd say in between 1 and 2. Not the masterstroke as 1 puts it, but better than the meh of 2. A 1.5 where it's good because, if we get said players in, I think we could play good stuff this season, and that's the priority for me.How do we think this will go then?
1. Masterstroke. ETH recaptures his mid-first season form and we end up with as good if not better points tally in the League and real feeling of optimism for the 25/26 season. Turns out 14 months of consistently poor form really was the injuries after all
2. Meh. We end scrapping for 4th with a 0 goal difference and not much hope for the next season. A feeling of crushing depression spreads through half the fan base as Ten Hag is still allowed to continue due to lack of options, with constant reminders of how we backed SAF
3. Disastrous. Form is worse than ever straight from the off next season. Ten Hag is sacked in October while we hire a make-do/give it McClaren til end of season as we write off yet another year. 49% of the caf roasts the other 51% and Ineos for ignoring what was in their faces the whole time
4. Injuries. The season is hampered by long term injuries to 2 first team players. Ten Hag has learnt nothing and once again cannot work his way around it. No matter, absolutely everything is excused and he is allowed to continue on indefinitely until he eventually has an injury-free season in which we can, finally, judge his managerial prowess. This could be anywhere from 1-5 years
I’m going for 2.
If we repeat our disastrous transfer windows of the past decade, then probably 3. That's how important our summer is, in my opinion.
