I don't think people have given up they are just being realistic.
Our record against top 6 teams played 7 W0 D3 L4. I think we will finish 4th especially with the Silva injury now.
I think COC is 50/50 as Liverpool aren't much good but seem to do well against us.
CL last 8 maybe, and in the FA Cup as we play Chavs just before we play in CL I think that will be it.
I think injuries have played their part, but the managers lack of any real tactics and his inabilities to play Yaya where he isn't a liability and the fact half the team are under performing will ultimately cost us this season.
I seriously pray Aguero doesn't get an injury or we will be fighting the cr*p rags for 4th spot.
Obviously hope I'm seriously wrong and we win the lot.
