Oh to be a City fan.

Oh to be a City fan.

Any long term Manchester City fan will know how frustrating it is support them. The 90’s where our lowest point dropping down to the third division (luckily I was born in the mid-nighties so I don’t remember the really really sh*t times), back to the highest point finishing in the top 4 for 5 years now and winning two premiership titles, no longer worrying about being relegated, we now worry about not getting 4th place.

Many people will think that it was Sheik Mansour that kicked started our revival, but I think it was the owner previous, Thakshin Shinawatra, he got us from being a relegation candidate to at least a solid mid table team, like Stoke of today.

We now have one of the most successful current managers, a world class team and academy. However, that thought of same old City is still on us like a bad hangover. The best example of this comes from this season, we dominate Barcelona winning 3-1, then we go and draw against Middlesbrough 1-1, its just f*cking typical city.

Hopefully, with Pep in charge, this will no longer be a problem for us and we perform consistently week in week out. I am not stupid. I know we are in a really bad vein of form and something needs changing in our current team and fast, *cough* Kolarov and Otamendi both in a back three *cough*, but I am optimistic that in time we will become what Pep envisions us to be like, just look how we played in the first 10 games of the season.

I have never seen us play as well and dominate as much as then, it confuses me at how we was so good straight away, and now we are not. Same old City, we never change.
