so true.
The defence was actually good last year, they went the longest out of all the teams in the league without conceding at home from the start of the league.
But they had the worst goalscoring record in Premiership history
I think Sven will definitely have them climbing the table, but I don't think he'll quite reach Europe, EVERYONE has spent this summer, so all the teams around, above and below City have strengthened so anything can happen...
