Everyone says "enough of the negativity, have a look at this" I am finding this place nothing but positive at the moment...is it just a witty precursor to you starting a thread or are you hoping for immediate support for a thread you created from the rahrah cheers boys?
Everyone is being positive except crossan who is typically having a moan but not really being negative. How about, "how we've changed, look at this" if you want some other crap way to start a thread, at least it's better than creating imaginary villains for you to crucify, that's what David Fucking Moyes does, are you David Fucking Moyes? Don Quixote aint got nothing on you two.

Come on Slim...If I could even be arsed trawling through a few threads...which I can't by the way...i'd find far more that Crosson having a moan about something or other...It seems that City attract more than their fair share of doom mongers even in such vibrant times as these!

Embarrassingly, you're absolutely spot on with that John
I started every single season in the top flight thinking that we had a good chance of a cup win or maybe getting into the European spots...everytime we were relegated I was convinced we'd romp back to the Prem/First Division as league winners (despite ALL evidence absolutely contradicting this wild baseless optimism!) haha

Didn't a large crop of that shite finish 8th after SP took over from KK though?

Not really. We had James, Bosvelt, SWP, Fowler and Anelka that season.

Sven also had Elano, Petrov, Corluka, Geovanni, Garrido, Benjani, Caicedo, Gelson, etc etc etc

You enjoy evolution more when you are familiar with what you have evolved from and this is a fine example.
Also, it would be more interesting to compare that squad with the one from five year previous, as I am sure that in comparison we would claim this 2006-7 squad as 'world beaters'!
Now .... what will be even more interesting ..... is reviving this post in five years time and I would bet that we will be reacting similarly when comparing our current squad to what we will have in five years time.
The time to worry is when we agree that our previous squads were better than what we have at the moment. Hopefully, this is something I doubt we will be doing for a long time yet to come.

Ummmm....yes. Your point being what? Those are all players Sven bought.

My point being, a shit squad similar to the one Sven inherited got us 8th, so obviously it wasn't as shit as we thought. You replied saying we had the likes of Bosvelt, SWP and Fowler when we got 8th. So I was pointing out we had the likes of Petrov, Elano and Corluka when we finished 9th.
