We will never win back to back titles
- Thread starter Johnsonontheleft
- Start date
Fuck hoping for it. We as a club have to fight for it and want it, even as supporters - we still play our part. I'm optimistic that we will do it this year.McfcMK said:We were written off last year and we've been written off this year. Lets hope the outcome is the same.
Johnsonontheleft said:2011/2012: We make signings like Aguero, and we win the league in the last minute.
2012/2013: Players relax, motivation fades, signings we make are generally mediocre. Top players leave eg Tevez. Our main rival makes a marquee signing (RVP) and have added hunger to win the league.
2013/14: Renewed hunger, new manager, top signings in Fernandinho, Negredo, Navas, Demichelis, Jovetic. Main rivals don't strengthen sufficiently. Motivation back and we win the league.
2014/15: Players relax, motivation fades. Signings are average and we let top players go again (Negredo). Maybe influenced by FFP. Our main rival strengthen significantly (Costa & Fabregas).
I feel like we're only at our best in alternate seasons when the hunger and desire to win returns. I guess this is human nature. Not just the players - this is also reflected in what goes on behind the scenes too with transfers.
Has anyone else picked up on this pattern?

Anything is a bonus this year for me. No title or title, I'll be happy. I wasn't expecting to win it this year. So if we do, I'm sure it will feel better than the two previous times.
