The media narrative of our season has been awful. Arsenal melt down, City are rubbish without Kompany or De Bruyne and Lecister and Spurs given then traditional top 4 a lesson...yet you'd think Man United and LVG had been murdering kittens.

Let's get it out the way: Yes we've had some bad results Yes we should score more Yes sometimes our performances make me die a little inside

BUT.....are we really that far of from challenging?

*We are top of table on home form and only let in 7 goals. #fortress

*We are top 5 best defence in all of Europe for clean sheets.

*In a still transitional season we had to cope with 18 first team injuries...twice for our captain, Luke Shaw gone....Valencia out....these weren't trivial players. What are City without Kompany and De Bruyne? Yet we have coped admirably.

*Yet we are in shout with trophy and top 4

*And in amongst all this we found academy stars in Verela, Bojack, TIMBO and Rashford while Martial was a sensation.

*Even Memphis at 21 has had a better season than Ronaldo did in his first season.

I'm optimistic we will crack the away team park the bus problem....and then????
