I thought it was either them or Chelsea, and both will go close, one of them were expected to win it. I thought Mourinho would pull Chelsea over the line, alas.
I don't know such a generalizing statement like "anyone blah blah blah" really helps your case, if the most expensively assembled squad in the league isn't reasonably expected to win some domestic trophies then I don't know what to expect anymore
Brendan, is that you??
Anyone that "expects" a club to win the title and win a cup is unrealistic. Having a quick look, it seems a fair few that didn't even expect us to win the title. Including ADL, WC from the first couple of pages. Not sure if you put a prediction in.
Right, so you didn't expect that we would win the title as you thought Mourinho would pull Chelsea over the line. Yet you don't think its not unrealistic to expect us to win the league and a cup as well.
Solid logic there.
I've never seen a supporter of a "big" club play down expectations of his own team as much as moomba. Anything won should just be seen as a bonus. I get that supporters don't want to come off as appearing arrogant but this is ridiculous.
No expectations to get out of the Champions League group, no expectations to win a cup, no expectations to win the league. You want the money, but no expectation. You could finish 5th and probably explain it away as "at least we didn't get relegated".
Nearly everyone was saying that the title winner would either be City or Chelsea. I don't think it is unreasonable to say that anything other than winning a title would be a failure for City/Pellegrini.
If logic means that you have an expectation to win a league and cup double, as opposed to thinking we have a chance at winning things, or hoping we win things then I hope I never get logical.
If logic is tipping Chelsea for the league, and then saying that it's not unrealistic to expect City to win a league and cup double then I'm happy to be illogical.
And FWIW I thought getting out of the Champions League groups was a minimum expectation for this season. I hoped we would win the league, and maybe even a cup run. But I didn't expect anything, and I hope I never become that sort of supporter.
OK. I'm illogical for not expecting us to win a league and couple double. If you say so.
You do not represent the rest of the population
Are you pissed?
I was replying to someone that made a comment about my expectations. Never claimed to represent anyone else.
Anyone that "expects" a club to win the title and win a cup is unrealistic.
Are you seriously citing your bias partial opinion as a barometer for everyone else?
You're the one who said "anyone who expected a team to win a cup double are unrealistic", turns out you're wrong on the anyone part, so now you've narrowed it down to yourself. Bit of backpedaling going on
Um
I am quite sober, how many bottles of vodka did you down today?
