The whole world smiles

We are currently 19 games and 3 months into a gruelling schedule. And we currently have 1 injury. Hopefully this will stop complete meltdowns in future when players get injured and calm down all this nonsense about a seagrave curse. No need for the hysteria all the time. Top athletes get injuries and sometimes in a team sport those injuries build up.

What. A. Player.

People will say he underachieved and considering the ability he showed for 3 seasons here they might be right. But if you had said to him when he was deemed surplus to requirements at Man United and was on loan at Barnsley that he would be retiring with a premier league winners medal, 3 England caps and 50+ million in the bank (pre tax). Then I'm sure he would have bitten your arm off. Personally I got a lot of enjoyment watching him play especially with matty james in the promotion season and of course with kante in 15/16. I wish him all the luck in the world in retirement and hope he can find a bit of peace and happiness that seems like it eluded him when he was playing.

Outside of this message board is nige's stock high enough to walk into another championship job? His record since leaving City for the 2nd time is pretty bad. Failed at Derby, failed in Belgium had a huge falling out with the owners at Watford then more or less stood still with Bristol for 3 years.

All the best to him he's flying but Would you have him starting ahead of ineacho or vardy? Or a 20 year old tom cannon?

1st, 2nd, play offs it's all the same come August next year. Despite how easy Enzo and the boys are making it look this is a bloody difficult league to get out of. The objective before a ball was kicked was promotion and that remains the same. Quibling about how we do it just shows how ridiculously high the expectations of the fans have become. I was hoping relegation and a year in the championship would cool expectations but no such luck.

Last season it took 9 long months and 38 games to get 34 points. This season we have 36 points in 13 games. What a remarkable Contrast between the mood of the place, What a brilliant Job Enzo and his staff are doing. Up the city.
