Why have we been written off?

We have been written off by an avalanche of jealousy and bitterness from the pundits, take little or no notice of them,the bookies have us as second favourites it'll cost them money giving us long odds so they aren't going to go out on a limb like the tossers in the media.
 
We've been written off because I think people were expecting us to buy big (as in already top class stars) and we haven't. And a lot have looked at last season and think that's where we are now, well short in all comps, out of all with at least three or four rounds to go but that doesn't mean it wasn't a dip rather than our new trajectory. They're discounting us getting back to our best again because it either fits their stance or they haven't looked into us that deeply. Simple as that really.

People have seen United and Liverpool have gigantic drops in league places in the last two seasons and think "well if City aren't buying Godin Pogba and Bale then they'll do the same thing" or they're just winding up the people in our media thread because I'm certain they do that on purpose after coming in here and reading it some days.

We haven't handled the pressure of expectation in the past though, as favourites or champions we've often come up short.

So me suits me fine all this.

We can ignore anyone saying we'll finish seventh or outside the top four from the media, they're laughable, but we can also ignore people from our own fanbase who are saying we'll walk the league this season because they're also living in the same world as those in the media completely writing us off.
 
I'm afraid I'll jinx it if I say we won't finish outside the top 2. I'm confident however that Liverpool, Spurs and United won't finish in the top 3.

If we have players who are so weak to allow the media to cast doubt in their minds, let's get to the Transfer Forum and have a thread about selling every one of those players.

That team, right there, is so bloody strong that Yaya Toure, club legend, and one of the best CM's the premier league has ever seen will struggle to get in the starting line up.

That team, right there, is going to win the league, reach the Champions League Semi-Final (and from there, who knows!?), and win a cup.

No other team outside of Spain and Munich can compete with that. And if we bring in one or two more faces on top of that before the window closes? Jeeeez!

Great point - however, aren't you jumping the gun a bit with one of those names? Or is there something I should know?
