Pep inherited better players than any United manager post SAF as well as spending more than any manager too

Plus the pressure succeed isn’t as big at City as it is at United

You answered the article in the first sentence. No expectation on Pep.

Unless he wins every game in every competition City enters. Yes that's not an expectation.

City replaced Mancini and Pelegrinni after both had won the PL and domestic trophies. One even got as far as the semi final in the CL.
But yeah, you're correct. We have different expectations.

Expectations v Entitlement.

City fans do have expections after being the most successful club over the last 10 years but none of us think it's a God given right like some United fans and their mates down the M62.

United have been a mess with the transfer policies while City by and large have got it right with some exceptions. Recruitment is key and United are finally starting to nail it with recent signing.

Ole now after spending £200m (more spending in summer) needs to improve them from a Europa side to league challenging.

Ole is a football genius.
£80m for Big Harry says it all.

You're only writing this as a wum.
You think big expectations for United are history. How wrong can you be. Big trophies won=history.
Expectations for next season huge.

Look at Moyes, finishing 7th and getting to the semi-finals of a cup competition is considered a good season at Everton, at United, it got him the sack.

Much easier to achieve something, in any walk if life, if the expectations are already quite low.

Perhaps that’s why with Utd 5th and just the 37 points off the top they are quite satisfied with the paperboy

Different era, different mindsets, but ask Brian Clough, he’d pick the smaller Clubs anytime - nothing to lose you see, with such little expectations (Derby & Forest)

Look what happened when he went to Leeds who were League Champions...he lasted 44 days

Went into Forest who were bottom half of the old 2nd Division, and within 5 years, he’d turned them into Double European Champions

There are more articles and comments now about us being a mid table club etc.
And the reason is that they realise Ole is building a good team, since Bruno arrived things are falling into place so there is a frisson of anxiety that next season we will be challenging, hard.

Well, I hope you challenge. Makes it more exciting to be honest.

if he figures how to get pogba into the mix effectively i think it could very well be a three horse race.
