Folk have ways of coping in stressful "on the brink of immortality" moments.Support the players,team and club....we're on the brink of immortality.
Nows not the time for pointless nit picking !!
They will, I’d say it’s not going to happen for either of them to run perfect until the end of the season. I’ve done some odds compiling during my work years, it was over 40 years ago without access to algorithms and data but this is how I see it:
Dippers
Everton 1/2
West Ham 1/2
Spuds 4/7
Villa 6/5
Wolves 1/4
Just over 9/1
Arsenal
Chelsea 4/7
Spuds 1/1
Bournemouth 1/5
Rags 1/1
Everton 1/5
About 8/1
Good research there pal, agree it’s proper pressure and just one injury or poor refereeing or just an off day could be the deciding factor.We've only won all 6 of our final games once under Pep - although we've only had to do so once, so there's a big caveat to that.
It's immensely difficult to do with so much at stake and a season's worth of fatigue starting to hit home.
Liverpool's best winning run is 5 games all season.
Arsenal's best winning run is 8 games, but some tricky ones to come on paper.
City's best winning run is 6 games, which we've done twice. We'll have won 9 in a row if we win our remaining games.
I expect all three to drop points, but we just have to concentrate on ourselves. Ignore the others. If they drop points great, but it doesn't change what we have to do for now. With the number of games left and the fact we're a game behind (2 when we play Brighton) we're playing catch up either way so the pressure isn't going to come off anytime soon.
The fact we are still alive is an achievement in itself , of course creating history with a fourth in a row would be Pep's crowning glory and that of the team particularly those who have played a big part in all four.We've only won all 6 of our final games once under Pep - although we've only had to do so once, so there's a big caveat to that.

My favourite is the Evening Star, two mins walk from station. There is a clutch of pubs outside the station, Grand Central, Railway Belle are most obvious to the rt, Queens Head on first corner heading straight to Surrey Rd, Battle of Trafalgar just up past GC, and Prince Albert is pretty good, turn down Trafalgar St sort of under the station, first on right.First time heading to the Amex. Any recommendations for Brighton pubs pre-match before the train to Falmer?

In any competition especially at the elite level to win 4 on the spin is more than incredible and not often achieved.
I count seven of their strongest XI on that list. You really don't think Mitoma, Lamptey, Ferguson and Enciso are that good?Except very few of the injured players are much good.
