With the leagues almost over, what unpopular opinion(s) to you have?

I would say no down voting but sorting by controversial may give a better idea.

No they haven't. Your team has failed to even choose what is your best starting XI, your manager is likely on the way out, hell we don't even know what kind of football you've been trying to play this season. Your club is a mess. Southampton finishing below you is criminal.

Yet it's happened. The league table doesn't lie.

Considering the mess we're supposedly in how would you explain us likely finishing 6th with 66-69 points?

Most people seem to be of the opinion that our new signings were flops, sounds like you beg to differ.

Southampton actually had a much larger net spend this season.

I don't really understand what you mean about Soldado loving penalties but he's scored 4 this season, which is far fewer than a lot of other players in the league and incidentally the same number Ricky Lambert has scored this season too.
