Yeah, sounds ridiculous to me to give a manager 6/10 after winning and dominating the league the European Champions play in.
I could maybe understand 7/10 in the most harsh evaluation.
Yea you don't spend 300m to finish 5th

Our writers predict how the Premier League season will unfold
Manchester City defend the title, while Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest are back in the top flightwww.independent.co.uk
Man Utd were definitely not favoured to be top four prior to the season beginning.
It sounds ridiculous when you want to ignore the context behind everything that transpired in the season for sure.
Context in the league was that we were the best side by a clear margin.
I get blaming Xavi for CL, but still... 6/10 is still a joke.
I'd have to give ETH a 4/10 if I am holding everyone to some insane standard.
6/10 is generally regarded as a decent grade
8/10 is what's ridiculous considering our performance in Europe. That would be a great grade.
Xavi should get a 7/10 for the season. We can't take winning a title like this for granted and have put together a great league campaign.
My personal question marks over him are the style of football and if that is sustainable for a project going forward, but we will see now, he's going into the 3rd season as manager and we should see some sort of culmination now.
