I do agree, but another 5 years from here of finishing 2nd or 3rd and not winning even a cup would make it 10 years without a single trophy under the same manager and 26 years without a league title. Something would need to change then, whether it's manager, playing style or recruitment strategy, to get over the line instead of remaining the forever "bottlers."
We're serious and challenging again and I suspect 90 of the other 91 teams in the English football league would swap current seasons regardless of how much they laugh at 2nd (or maybe 89 if Newcastle would prefer their League Cup as it was their first trophy for 70+ years). But the next step has to be winning something so at what point does that become the expectation/requirement?
