Another tough month. Sure, we will take three wins but they were close. The loss to Juventus was unfortunate. They are on form and headed to another championship. It was be nice to topple that but at the moment no such luck. More injuries. Stephan El Shaarawy has been on and off the injuries list the whole start of the season. We also lost Giampaolo Pazzini for most of the season. There has been a bright light in all of this. Our player loaned from Chelsea, Fernando Torres, has filled Pazzini’s position nicely.
3rd in the standings is still good. The media keeps saying we are playing above expectations. I disagree, I think we are a good enough team to stay on the top half of the standings. Yes, we had to fight hard for it but that makes it that much sweeter.
