Crisis?

Even if this season ends up being worse than 2008 that will still only be one bad (or even horrible for some) season.

We've (hopefully) got managerial stability, our owner isn't going anywhere, our dressing-room is still fine and our best players don't want to leave.

We're nothing like Liverpool and anyone claiming the opposite is a doomsayer.

but we are heading into that direction , aren't we ??

we are 5th , and we have to work our asses off if we are to get out of our current postion .

Directions change, our brilliant early season is the most recent example.

I, for one, never thought we could win the league after the defeat at Everton last season, we won the double.

I'm not saying a turnaround as impressive as that one is possible but such directions can be affected by luck, referees or individual performances.

What if Drogba scored that penalty against Tottenham? what if we had gotten a deserved penalty against Everton and converted one of our chances against Birmingham, Looserpool and Villa?

Thus I think turning a season around, or our direction during the summer is much easier than changing Ancelotti's treatment towards the youth or replacing players like Drogba and Lampard.
