Christ where do you start? game 1 against the new and the previous champions, with Nuno at the helm.......we won 1-0 and went on in that vein and were still joint top after 9 games with 20 points with Liverpool. City weren't top 4 and Arsenal were bottom or close to it.
March 15th - 11 games to go, Nuno had gone, we were still8th, played a game more and were 6 points behind Woolwich. 6pm 22nd May, we're 4th, only 3 points behind Chelsea and in Champions League.
What a fucking season, Don Tony is a living miracle worker, I love Poch and hope he will come back one day, with proper backing from egg head, but for now Antonio is a legend and must be given the chance to have a crack at Champions League and the Premier League next season.
Review? we started off winning 1-0 luckily and barely creating chances, passionless football, just horrible - no real change from Mourinho and players not giving much of a fuck.... then Don Tony shows up and it's night and day different, a few dodgy weeks when we could have gone up to third with games in hand, but chose to lose to Burnley, Saints and Wolves instead, bollocks sprang to mind then finally winning 8 of our last 11 games or something, Leicester City extra time, Champions League, smashing Arsenal, scoring a shed load of goals in the process and Sonny wins the golden boot.
Funny old game. Probably be the same next season.....but we will be off to European cities supporting the lads and having a beer again. Lovely stuff.
