I think everyone is a bit more realistic than that

This squad is a mid table squad, led by a mid table manager. It's going to finish mid table. Nobody at the club could say that, but everyone knows its true.

Had every important player stayed fit, maybe we could have expected more. But that was always unlikely.

The only way to break this now is to luck out in the transfer market (Emi) or have some really great kids break through. Otherwise, this is our level.

We're almost certainly going to lose tomorrow, as Leeds have better players, a better squad and (probably) a better manager.

Viewed in this way, it wouldn't make any sense to sack DW.
