5th in the league and semi-finals of the Carling Cup and moaning because we missed out on the Champions League due to the last two games of a thirty eight game season which included ten or eleven draws under Mark Hughes?
"Devestated" is a very bold word to use at this moment in time. Yes it hurt because it was Tottenham who beat us to fourth place, but it is not the be all and end all of our season and we'll come back stronger next season. Believe in the owners, believe in the manager and believe in whatever 11 players pull on the shirt.
We've had a fantastic season where we've hardly lost, 2nd only to Chelsea in that respect. That says to me we've become a more resiliant force and that we've made a huge amount of progress within the last 12 months.
Do not be disheartened. This is just the start of things to come. Believe in the project and believe that we'll be successful. It hurts now, but we'll be right up there challenging for the title next season. Time to dust ourselves off again, pick ourselves up and get behind the team. Don't lose faith or heart, be dissapointed but don't give up on them.
I love this club and I'm proud of the way they have performed this season and what we have achieved. There is a huge amount of potential and there are key areas where we can improve. Next season we'll be the team to beat and you can quote me on that. I believe in Mancini and that we'd be right up there if he had a full season. He failed to get fourth with Mark Hughes team with the exception of Johnson (£7,000,000) and a stop-gap signing of Patrick Vieira.
We have been stupidly unlucky with injuries to key players, no more so than in defence and benefiting from the stability of a "normal" back four. We'll get new players in who will improve the team and be first team regulars. There's nothing to be despondant about, move onwards and upwards and get excited about the future of the club again.
Come on ladies and gents, it's not all bad is it? The future's still bright and when we get there it will remain blue and white for a long time to come!
