I respect the ambition but there's a sense of realism to be had here. We're in a season of transition - 38 away games essentially. Up against teams who outspend us significantly. I don't think there is anything wrong in saying 'lets go for the League/FA Cup' and no matter what happens in May we have a trophy to point to. We've fucked one of the two so FA Cup has to be a priority. I would take 4th and FA Cup than 2nd and nothing this season.
Get to the new stadium with CL football in the bag and a trophy in the cabinet is job done.
I agree - it's just that I don't see us winning anything. Just don't see city dropping any points/losing games - except in the champions league. If they sign one John terry type centre back to replace otamendi (who isn't bad anyway) they will rule football in England for the next few years.
