I dont call making the top 6 on the final day of the season (with a little luck),being a title challenging side..'"
I am not saying that those teams are not there on merit but I clearly stated that we have more experience of being in pressure situations in play-off games and big games towards the back end of the season, the teams I mention above us do not. Granted they are looking good teams this season but 2 or 3 are guaranteed to drop off.
We have been a title challenging team we have been just 1 step away form old trafford for the last 2 years.
We are indeed sitting mid table but we have yet to hit full potential.
