What do you think Manchester City's chances are for this season? Judging by that little survey over there >>> a couple of you seem to think they might win the League (and yes Trevor,I know one of those people were you!) City are thought of as some kind of joke in the red half of Manchester and for such a big club not winning a major trophy since Dennis Tueart scored a rather good overhead kick vs Newcastle (another massive underachiever) in the 1976 League Cup Final at Wembley,its not really surprising. I'll be honest,I've always had a bit of a soft spot for Citeh and up until 1997 have always likened them to another underachieving team in that reside in a certain area of west London.
But City are a different beast now. A bottomless pit of money (and please don't tell me you can't buy success.....we did!) and an ambitious owner. Some of the best players in the League too (not sure about the Manager yet personally)
I will be amazed if they don't come in the top 4 this season and it wouldn't surprise me if they are right in contention for the title right up until the end of April (when Chelsea and Utd just edge ahead)
I'm predicting a 3rd place finish for Citeh this season. What do you reckon?
