I dont think people are missing the point biggus, just that predictions and expectations by their nature are very similar. Both we believe because we have reasoned it out somehow. Our expectation and ours hopes are where the real difference lies.
Your point is well taken about lowering our expectations - perhaps we should. City aren't a threat yet and Sp**s are still crap. Man U and Chelsea have great squads but we almost beat them last season despite a horrible injury list. I firmly believe this team of players is very underrated by many fans and by the media.
Considering we challenged the title last season and this season I think we are of similar quality (debate for another thread) I expect us to again challenge for the title.
I think it is unrealistic to expect anything in the cups because we could get a horrible draw, have team be a bit jammy etc etc.
