Of course it means something.
2 points from 9 does nothing for our morale or our points total.
I survived both seasons well and really enjoyed them but in both we couldn't take our foot off the pedal.
Would you feel comfortable dropping points in our next 2 games.

Again you’re getting worried over something that hasn’t happened yet.
This time around we can afford to cruise a bit if we choose too, but knowing Pep we’ll win every game till the end of the season after that kick in the balls yesterday.
Just enjoy the ride.

still saying 74 points wins it which is what it said before a ball was kicked. Since then it’s been as low as 70 and as high as 80. Saying we will finish 15 clear if we try after it’s mathematically done.

>99% a City title

Liverpool only 22% top 4.

We will win it with 80 another 5 wins,74 a bit low rags capable of 74,6 wins 2 draws and 2 defeats.
 
Mad how we can run away with a few wins and decide the title is ours, then one loss and it's panic stations.

In the past week we've stretched the lead by 1pt. 3 games, 6pts for us, 5pts for the rags. In the past 5 games we've stretched the lead over them by 3pts.

If we lose the next two and they win their next two then the gap is down to 5pts and then we can all have a little wobble. But for now, we only think about the next game! 19pts needed, make it 16pts midweek. Then let's go to Fulham and make it 13pts.

Serious question.

Is it just me that thinks the Title is not in the Bag yet ?

Some seem to think it is now a procession, just a matter of time until we are inevitably crowned Champions.

We have just seen the Scousers lose 6 home games on the Bounce, after going undefeated for God knows how long.

We have games against in form sides to come in Sothampton, Fulham,we still have to play Leicester,Chelsea,Aston Villa Leeds.

I personally think this is far from over.

Our manager has been determined to Shoe Horn a woefully unfit,and out of form KDB in to a side that was routinely winning every week. we were lucky against Wolves,West Ham,not today though

Pep plays our best 11 we will walk this Title for sure.

If he continues undermining the winning formula fuck knows what will happen from here on in.

Wednesday is a really big game for me.

He needs to play our best 11.

Pick the team based on how they are playing,not their Ego.

Southampton in form?

They’ve won one - against Sheffield Blades - and drawn one of the last five.

It's not that long ago that they were challenging for the top four; now they’re 14th.

we are out of form though ,going on that posters logic :)

I'm confident about the Southampton game,
 
Is anyone factoring In the power of pigmol?? Utd in a tight game, given a penalty to win, us in a tight game, goal ruled out by VAR. Let's see how many times that happens over the next 10 games. If they do win the title it will be because of this. That's the only way they will win it in my opinion.

Even that will not be enough. The title is done.
 
Looking at the Rags run-in there is a strong possibility they are going to drop a minimum of six points meaning we need 13 points from a possible 30 , i can see why the bookies paid out giving their punters more time to blow their winnings.
 
I think we need 5 wins and 2 draws. Rags will draw one but they have a decent run in. Will end up quite close. Yesterday was a big blow.

It was a blow mate. Other than our needs, a little Top 4 leg up threw in for good measure for them. Grrrr..

I think our run-in is slightly easier than the Rags and Leicester's

And I think it could be as low as 77 points to win it meaning another 4 wins from 10 games could be enough

Scum have a tough run-in. Spurs, Scousers, Leeds away, Villa away, Leicester, West Ham, Wolves. And Burnley at home is no gimme given the way they are playing at Old Toilet. The only relatively easier games they have are Brighton and Fulham at home. And the latter ain't a certainty either as the other fuckers just found out
 
As I've said before, if united finish in the top 4 that's a sensational season for them. It's impossible for them to sack Bilbo and next season they will be in the top 6 but are absolutely no rival to us. They are like Everton, West Ham etc - slightly annoying to play them but will never go head to head with us.

If Bilbo was replaced by Pochettino/Ancelotti etc then they would give us a much closer race so as long as they finish in the top 4 it's really good for us. They won't win the CL so the extra pressure of the CL and trying to finish in the top 4 exhausts their squad. Plus it gives them hope when it reality they have none.

Ultimately, no one will match us this season. We're far, far, far better than the rest of the teams in this league. United will drop points - they do a number on us, but they don't on Spurs, Arsenal, West Ham etc and that's where they struggle.

We will beat Southampton and Fulham and will open up a 17(?) point gap on them with something like 10 games left. It would take the greatest collapse in world football history to go drop points to allow them back into it. If any other team was 17 points clear we wouldn't even think about be able to win the title.

Get the champers on ice, we're going to need a LOT of it this season!!
