I’m not sure why people obsess over what others think. You will never convince most people of the simple facts which are self evident, because their “self” it can NEVER be true. While some of us wear blue tinted specs every now and then, the rest of the world sees money spent, lost a few games, Wigan knocked us out of the FA Cup, we lost the Liverpool three times, etc, etc, etc... You can’t change those opinions, and why do you care when the results and statistics speak for themselves.
Let’s revisit the records broken at year end and THEN see where we stand in the record books. You can wear whatever colored specs you want on the terraces, or forums, but the ACTUAL RECORD BOOKS are objective, and they don’t lie.
We have a chance to rewrite 8 or 10 records this season, so I hope the players don’t take their foot off the pedal, and continue to make the world sit up and take notice. After all, it will be THEIR record breaking season, not ours! The run in is kind and we should beat points and goals and wins, which, when added together, wouldn’t strongly suggest “best Premier League team ever!” to even the most jaded fan. The Rags, of course, will always have their Treble season, but their PL season was absolutely nowhere near what we have done this season. Accordingly, we need to make certain we don’t throw the net too widely, and we should concentrate on stating “Best Premier League team ever,” not simply “best team ever!” as that will always be subjective.
