The players we currently have and signed our good enough for us to finish top 4. We didn't play well in the playoffs because of the continuous stop and go in the league, we had 1 month off before the playoffs started. We had 4 weeks in between our first competence game of the year (cup) and the first league game, we had 2 weeks off in November because of delays, we had 2 weeks off for Christmas. This continuous stop and go was awful for our players and they couldn't keep a rhythm together.
In January-March we played our best ball against teams like Olympiakos, we destroyed Atrmitos, we beat Kerkyra, and we were blowing people out in the league, that was the only time period in which we didn't have have random 2+ week long breaks to throw us off.
If you don't think we are going for a title next year then you must not understand just how great of an owner Melissanidis is, he's not back to finish second place to anyone and unlike some other owners he actually knows mpalla.
This is the best AEK team since 2010 without a doubt, once the transfer window is over we will be at the same level as tne 2008 team.
