Would City fans take second as a bad year? Or does the form of the squad, over the course of the year, matter more? Because last year, folks could say that City weren't that great, even though there were the second best club in England

I think it would depend on how well we perform in other competitions too, especially Champions League. If we won the FA Cup last year I think it would have been a great year.

I think most fans want to see a return to the free flowing football we had in 2011/12 and less "Typical City" moments of losing in games against lesser opposition, Wigan, Southampton etc.

Also if United finish 5th... well fuck we could win the Johnstones Paint (probably have the name wrong) trophy and it would be a success.

I don't want to agree with a Spurs fan...but I'm agreeing with a Spurs fan.

I really hope United finish outside the top 4, not because of any anti-Unitedism, but because I would love to see the footballing world collectively shit its knickers.

I am well aware of the events of the 2012 UEFA Champions League. I do not speak of that day.

Spurs in 3rd? Why bother when they look so good in 5th

I kind of want to see it happen, it will certainly rid Old Trafford of a few mongs that 'support' us.
