What like Celtic who have won the European Cup and have a fan base bigger than our own.....
i think you've missed his point

the expectations at celtic park and at any top 4 side are huge in comparison

Celtic are shit - and wouldn't finish in the top 6 if they played in the PL - they won the european cup back in the black and white days - and only other competition is Rangers and they are just as shit

So if he takes Villa into the Champions League would you say that wasn't an achievement......

Even if we got all three of them, without spending money we will not win anything :?

yes it is an achievement my argument is he always takes jobs where there is a win-win situation - Apart from die hard Villa fans - who else thought he would break into the top 4, so if he does he is the next Messiah, if he doesn't nobody will care

At Arsenal he will have much big pressure - we will demand to be challenging for Champions not fourth - if he is only expected to get fourth we just as well keep Wenger

That's an interesting point. Now tell me what are we demanding of AW?

BTW I don't think O'Neill is right choice for Arsenal.

I can see your point honest ! All I would say is that he has raised the bar at every club he has been too. I don't think he is the be all and end all of managers but he has been working his way up. Wycombe, Leicester, Celtic and Villa have all gone a level up under his management. There's nothing to say he wouldn't do the same to a bigger club.

Also at Celtic there is a huge expectation. Finish 2nd and you're a loser. I think that stands him in good stead for a challenge

we are demanding what Wenger has achieved in previous 12 seasons making us one of the best teams in the PL and to be challenging for the PL title like last year when we fell just short - instead of building on last year - we have gone backwards like 2 to 3 years ago - not replacing Flamini was the biggest mistake Wenger has made this season
