There are a few small and very large decisions that were made in relation to this season that had HUGE impacts on the way things played out. I think these are the most interesting.
9. What if Pulis had stayed at Stoke? Would they have done better or worse?
8. What if Di Canio had not been fired? Would he have kept Sunderland up with his charisma?
7. What if Vincent Tan was not a twat? Maybe Cardiff would have actually put up a fight.
6. What if Fulham had kept Jol? I think they would have stayed up with a few games to spare.
5. What if Moyes had stayed at Everton? How well would he have done?
4. What if Chelsea had kept Lukaku, would he have won them the league?
3. What if Liverpool had sold Suarez to Arsenal?
2. What if Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs had done some real transfer business instead of buying injured midfielders, aged strikers and players with good ratings in video games?
1. What if Fergie hadn't retired?
This was the season that Man Utd started a new era, Jose went back "home", Pellegrini got a second shot at a money club and Arsenal and Liverpool flattered to deceive.
Now imagine what would have happened if all that had remained the same, except for Fergie's retirement. He would have had to deal with the return of old foes, the revival of Arsenal and Liverpool and a Man City that was run by a level-headed manager. Do you think he would have got more out of the squad or perhaps he would have done some real transfer business and fixed it.
Whatever the case, I think it would have made this the best season since ever.
