Which of their games this season have you seen this, furthermore, they were better than us last year and we beat them twice. We've got home advantage and I'd expect us to at least draw. We're a better side on paper that Sunderland and judging by your remarks I'm guessing you know what happened there.

CL qualifiction is bollocks. Firstly, we will not win the CL, secondly, we won't even sell out for the Juve game (effectively a CL match)...why embarass ourselves further...?
Lol

I can see you're a glass half full character.

Maybe, I suppose watching 20 odd years of failure does that...I used to have the blind opptimism but I've found it disappears with age.

I want to qualify for the CL. You don't.
How can you say I don't want trophies?
You also claim that City are an embarrassment in Europe which is an odd statement to make.
Not met a blue before who didn't want to finish top 4 and was embarrassed by our recent European games.

Well, you seemed happy about something....
I don't see any value lording it around in the CL if you can't win any trophies domestically and, when you do get a shot at a grand old European powerhouse, you can't sell out your stadium.
Where do you put 'Qualified for CL' on your honours list...?

It's not blind opptimism, it's taking a step back and thinking what's probably going to be better for the club in the long term. Top 4 is better for the club long term than winning a cup that every other set of fans and players will have forgetten about in 2 years time.
