They're so cocky at the moment but with so little justification.
They won 2 of their last 5 games at home to Reading and Hull without playing well, drew to Liverpool and Stoke with the help of late equalisers and lost at the mighty Hull despite fielding a strong line up.
They have no injuries to speak of to mitigate their poor performances just one guy at AFCON.
Their young heroes of last season have stagnated or regressed and Josie seems more interested in squeezing the last drops out of Carrick and Zlatan than building for the future. No doubt Mendes and Raiola will supply any needed reinforcements at the usual rates ;)
Their Youth Teams struggle. Out of the Youth Cup to a team we toyed with on Thursday and they're trusting Nicky Butt and a handful of head hunted scouts to fix it.
So all in all things are little if any better than last year, arguably they are in some ways worse but the delusion is strong in them fucktards.
