Prem Round up!

It's a shame we didn't get into Uefa (Aston Villa) but I think we got into 'into to to' (sp?) and if we win that, we get a spot in the Uefa Cup?

Yep. :] This is the last year before the Intertoto Cup is no more, starting next season teams who got an Intertoto Cup position will be entered in the qualifying stages of the UEFA Cup.

Fair do's to Villa, they did well to catch up with Everton. But at least you've got the intertoto

I'm so happy Everton finished 5th, it just proves how much we are improving. Kevin Keegan called us an inspiration:8! Cant wait till more European nights next season. I hope we get some good new players in, we definetely need to strengthen our squad and I think that the prospect of Europe will attract players. Moyes better get a contract extension

woooooo (;

I agree, they it give united the mental edge, maybe so but also chelase mah "have" to win this. Drogba and Terry and doubts! which if they both don't play is a massive blow to them. But i think it will be a fantastic game. And i hope the best team wins on the night.(i dont mean Man Utd i mean the team who plays the best then )

Which supporter doesn't hope that their team wins the Champions League final definately...? Even if Manchester United play worse than Chelsea (which of course they won't ), I want Manchester United to win.

It doesnt really prove how much you're improving tbh?

Where did you finish last season? 5th
You got knocked out of the UEFA CUP at around the same stage last season.

Ent really improved. Sadly, i dnt think you'll be able to attract BIG players, due to the league being all about the "big four", and when big players come around, they're first priority is the CHAMPO LEAGUE, but yeah, good luck for next season.

Actually, last season we finished 6th, this season we finished 5th. When I said about the improvement I was referring to the way we play, the amount of goals we've scored, good buys, and if you look at the last couple of seasons, we've been in the bottom half and in the top.
Just look at this for example and maybe you'll see my point;
02/03 - 7th.
03/04 - 17th.
04/05 - 4th.
05/06 - 11th.
06/07 - 6th.
07/08 - 5th.
This is the first time we've maintened in the UEFA cup for two seasons. I see that as an improvement, ok? That was our goal. Also, we've scored 55 goals this season, only one was a penalty. I see that as a good thing.
Where did I say we would attract BIG players? I said "good new" players, meaning players better than the likes of Neville and Hibbert. Like a new good winger, midfielder and now that Moyes has let Wessels go, we'll need better cover for a goalkeeper. Alot of players first priority might be the CL, but the UEFA is the next best thing, so if they cant get CL, they'll have to settle for the UEFA.
We're a good team and I do believe that we should not have gone out on penalties againest Fiorentina, I definetely think Howard needs to work on saving penalties better.
