we had everything in place though

particularly with the first promotion team under Farke. It was a perfect storm, almost like under Lambert, with loads of momentum and some real talented players. Just a few key signings then and we could easily have stayed up imo.

Instead, Webber smugly 'planned for relegation', and has been selling off any assets ever since - replacing them with vastly inferior players window after window.
