Exactly the small time mentality we've adopted in recent years!
When previous sides featuring Ronaldo, Tevez, Rooney went to a promoted team did we think a victory was so special? Thought not, we should blow them away with our recent signings and prove that is wasn't "only QPR"
We should only expect 3 points in these games like we did in Sir Alex' era!
We seen how a negative atmosphere can affect the team last season, hopefully the away support on Sunday expects a win and it translates onto the pitch!
Yes outlook has definitely changed among the fans but I don't think negatively as you've pointed out.
A lot of the time under Sir Alex the home crowd would be flat if United didn't start well and fans are now starting to understand the part they have to play to rally the team, as seen very impressively with last season's away support. Nervousness can transmit to the players for sure but now that expectations aren't as high as they were (expecting to win every game, and being right 95% of the time), fans are rallying the team more and more during games.
