We all know what Pedro was trying to get across.
Basically that City aren't as bad as people are making out, and that we had every chance against moneybags Fulham, although calling Fulham shit was, as he'd admitted afterwards, a bit strong.
TLG though did reply in what I thought was a rather condescending way with a short sharp 'are you serious?' ('oh dear' being another of his favourites') and I took this to mean that he had taken a contrary view.
Taking the post in isolation, one could be duped into thinking it was a nothing statement but TLG hasn't been gushing with optimism these past months, seeming only to surface after a bad performance.
Warnock has taken a lot of stick in the close season and up until Saturday, he did a job on the dillusional BIG spenders and I think that he deserves some credit for the way he went about taking on Fulham last week. Credit, or at least a more balanced view, from the posters who dished much of the stick out and not just the usual swipe upon the next defeat.
