Where on earth has all the doom and gloom come from?
Okay it's not been perfect, but after such an overhaul of the team it was never going to be. Clearly action is needed in January, if nothing else just to find a player who'll put the ball in the back of the net.
But the key point here is...
We're 3 points off 4th.
That's nothing, that could go in a weekend. In 2 games me we could feasibly be 3 points ahead of 5th place. Both Chelsea and Arsenal have relatively tough games that they could at least draw in. Of course, there's every chance of us drawing as well, but damn guys it really is not time to come up with lines such as "we'll need to overachieve to reach the Champions League spots".
Did you see how far United were behind City? They caught up, why the hell shouldn't we?
