They thought they were better than us last season.
They thought they should have got the automatics ahead of us last season.
They've spent 110 million this summer - 70 million more than us.
They expected to beat us today.
They think we are a team who play nineteenth century football, struggle to score goals and our only chance of scoring is from a set piece.
They've just seen their expensively assembled team not only lose to us, but concede 4 goals against us - and all 4 goals were scored from open play.
Plenty for the cardboard clappers to ponder this evening while they sip on their soya lattes.
