So far? 3 games? In terms of United that was against West Ham, Swansea and as I understand struggled a bit against Leicester. City struggled for a long while against all of the teams they played so I don’t see how either are suddenly ahead of us. City on paper have a better team but that’s only on paper which they can guarantee with their unlimited funds but they have not yet proved they have a coherent team to do better than us over 38 games.
Son is not inconsistent. That's ridiculous.
It's not ridiculous at all. We've all seen him have games where he's ineffective, and often if he doesn't score he doesn't contribute much. But as I said he's still a hugely important part of the squad.
I just think we'd be in a better position to challenge City and United (and Chelsea) if we had another attacking option. The great hope is that Lamela fills that role, but he hasn't for a while and I suspect he won't for a while more.
And yes you're right it's only three games so far. Doesn't prove anything. I'm just hoping we click soon.
