Im 27 years old and this is the first season people are talking about us winning the league. before the season started i bet a few of my rag mates that this is our year, £80 in total (i know what you may think, but i got a bit excited with all the transfers). one of them even gave me 5/1 odds!
I have been standing my ground all season with them saying that we will come good and still win the league. towards the end of hughes management i thought it was all over. but since mancini has come in i reckon we have more chance than before. and i think my mates do too, but they wont admit that.
The signs are looking good. i know its only 3 games, but 3 games won, 0 goals conceded, 2 away games... that in my eyes is significant change. i have heard pundits saying hughes would have got the same results had he been in charge, but we all know that he wouldnt. i mean we hadnt won away since aug/sept? and i cant remember the last clean sheet we had under hughes.
Under Mancini i am really starting to believe that this year we could actually be contenders... What do you think?
