Pretty much the case reza, as you and JayCrisp have often said, this squad is limited and there's only so much it can do. I think this team realistically aim to challenge for a Europa League spot this year, CL was a hope and I think we're quickly seeing the limitations of the players. I also think that midtable is realistic, even if an underachievement, because there are clear issues with the management that are causing huge problems as you point out.
I have found the whole Honda problem really quite interesting and indicative of the problem. Fans aren't known for patience or to have reason, and usually if a player speaks out against a club the fans will turn against the player. Almost universally what we've seen after Honda's comments are the fans agree with him, at least on the concerns that this issue needs to be questioned at all levels.
The other thing is Honda felt the need to go public. I think this is indicative that he feels he can't raise these concerns internally. He's not normally been a player to cause great problems, I felt the comments appeared more out of frustration. Mihajlovic's reaction was interesting, commenting on Honda's nationality probably wasn't the wisest choice.
Moreso, the club looks like it will reprimand him. Not to say this is wrong, players shouldn't be talking in public about internal issues, but I wonder if he'll at least be heard and his concerns noted. I get the impression the result of this is he'll be punished and that's it, whereas the company should be looking into why the guy did this.
