About what I expected. It was always going to be difficult.
Expect better next season but the season after should be great !

But then I'm not a needy child like many on here who want immediate success.

I'm convinced the success will come and will be so so sweet but it's going to take a while.

P.s. Top 4 is not a trophy and in the grand scheme of things it's not such a big deal
(still hope we make it though)

I wouldn't say people are needy, were already a successful club, and having got the world's best coach and spent another £150m we shouldn't be ending the season with the same number of trophies as Watfo and Stoke, or fighting for 4th place in the league with one of the poorest rag teams of the last 20 years.

We have spent well, but we are only as strong as the weakest link and sadly, we have one or two of those irrespective of our purchases
 
Out of 10? 5.5 or 6. Very underwhelming, if I'm honest. We've had glimpses of what we can do, But we haven't been consistent enough for me. And we've ignored our defensive deficiencies, to our cost. Hopefully that will be addressed in the summer.
 
4 out of 10.

Pound for pound probably the worst season alongside Pellegrini's last season since the takeover considering the hype and talent we have in both players and management.

Nearly £400m spent since the title win in 2014 and we have got worse in regards to success.
 
I find myself in recent seasons saying this at around the same time every year................"roll on summer,then we can go again next season",then when summer arrives I'll be impatient as fuck waiting for season to start.

Problem is though.the axe has got to be wielded as soon as last game as season has finished,no fucking about,get the deadwood gone,and even the ones (younger) who can't do it,a complete overhaul is required all the way through the team,otherwise people are gonna get pissed off with this pretty quickly
 
It's the end of an era of underachievement. An era that could have been one of domination, if those who knew nothing about football had let those who did get on with it.

The real sad thing is that these periods of domination only happen perhaps once in a fan's lifetime. Ours was diluted and eventually removed by those jokers from Spain and an obsession with the concepts of all things Barcelona.

A classic example of a bird in the hand if you ever needed one.

I absolutely agree with your first two lines. Spot on.

This era will be looked back upon as a what could have been period.
 
I'd give it a 5/10. Largely disappointing.

I can see where we are heading and it'll be great if we get there, but its like groundhog day, watching us shit the bed in pretty much every 'big' game.

Edit, I wouldn't give the refs a positive number out of 10, to a man, they have been fucking woeful.
 
I gave last season a 4 out of 10 and as it is looking like being better than this one, unbelievably, then this one can only get a 3. Biggest anti-climax in my 50 years of supporting City.

Can you see it getting much better in one season with the changes we need to make? I can't see it personally and think it will the season after next before we see anything like the finished article.

Everyone raving about Sane, Sterling and Jesus ripping teams apart but today the two who played were invisible. They are too young to be expected to be great game in game out. The signings this summer are vital.
