Completely agree. As one of many examples they are now spaffing themselves over the return of their magical midfield trio, Banana, Crutchinson and biscuit hip Lee. Jesus wept, 2 of them will be lucky to play 20 games and the other isn't anything like as good as they make him out to be. Pelupissy and a couple of scraps from the academy make up their current CM cadre.
Compare that to our options, Norwood, Fleck, Morrison, Freeman, Osborne, Lundstram, Basham, all fit as a fiddle with genuine quality, possibly with more to come in. Yet you can bet your bottom dollar that they still think they have the better midfield.
I don't see them doing anything special this season. There are already at least 10 teams who are significantly stronger than them, with stable management and younger fitter squads. Mid table at best, but I wouldn't rule out a flirt with relegation either.
If we were to come straight back down, which I highly doubt we will, we will still be light years ahead of them on and off the pitch. That may flip back in their favour a few years down the line but for now there really is only one team of any note in this City.
