The thing is you can’t just keep being blindly positive & hopeful for the sake of it. We’ve won 3/17 games, Nuno has 9 points from 12 games, we have no decent CB, no decent striker. Reality needs to hit.
We are 5, probably 6 by the end of the weekend, points adrift and if our current form continues for even a few games more will have a huge points gap to overcome. This has effectively been 2 calendar years of vastly underperforming as it started in January 2024.
This match against City is not going to change any season, we always lose to City away. If we get 9 points from the next four matches we will be in a decent position, It's a huge ask with our AFCON players missing but not impossible. Wolves are very poor, we have beaten Forest away already and so if we can get a result against Fulham at home it's not impossible. I am not down playing the task but a lot of people are ending the season at game 17 not game 38. If you look at it this way I don't think it looks quite so impossible.
In the next 21 matches can we get 7 points more than Leeds? In the next 21 matches can we get 6 points more than Forest ? In the next 21 matches can we not get 3 points less than Burnley In the next 21 matches Can we not get 12 points less than Wolves?
We would need meet only three of those four targets.
This is definitely possible in my view, but it does start in the next four matches.
