The Title Race - 2021/22

[Superace]

We beat them 7-0 at home and will want to put that right.

They are still in the shit but the manager is getting a tune of sorts.

We could do with Everton losing today and Arsenal losing tomorrow, to keep Spurs honest against Liverpool.

It's all on next week for me, we win and it's ours, we lose it's theirs. I don't expect a draw.

I would actually say Draw or City win is about 75% imo, I would take a draw now and if we beat Wolves away think the title is ours.

Wolves away is a good few weeks away

 

[scousemanc]

8 left to play. 7 wins and 1 draw to definitely win the league

Your right I forgot about it being rescheduled due to fa cup semi finals, still be a tough away game though if we need a win.

We need to beat the Dippers and gain a four point cushion ,ive watched a couple of their recent games and their opponents West Ham and Watford have missed real sitters , they are getting the luck and expect it to continue ,we also need to bang a few goals in against Brighton & Watford to even up the goal difference , the worst case secenario would be losing the title on goal difference.

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

It's not beyond the realms of possibility for City to lose to Liverpool, but still win the league.
However if City win next Sunday then I think the momentum will drive us to the title.
The Champions League games will also have an impact as injuries take their toll.

I do not want to go into the Villa game needing 3 points, Gerrard will give us fucking 0

If we beat Liverpool and draw two other games, and then match Liverpool in the remaining games, the problem won't be the goal difference it'll be the dropped points! And if we have a four point lead Pep will not be telling the team to chase down a goal difference in case it all goes to shit, he'll be telling them a 1-0 win is as good as a 10-0 win.

He may slip up. 3 defeats on the bounce. The atmosphere with Jack would be off the charts tho. The league will be over before the last game.

Gérard gave us the league title in 2014.
Steve Gérard, Gérard,
He fell on his f*****g arse.

They are indeed. We had our moments too, for example v Arsenal and Everton. We have probably just as much reason to believe it is meant to be ours as they do.

To be honest, if you offered me that scenario right now of needing 3 points against Villa to win the league then I'd probably take it.

He did but the c..t on the side lines will be a different contest, we need to be 4 clear IMO

I have a sneaky feeling that's what will happen...

He probably would give us none, but they aren’t his to give they’d
be ours to take and that would be okay for me.

I see what you did there.

 

[jimharri]

When Liverpool lose next sunday, they can still get to 93 points. So, assuming they do get to that total, we'll need 94.

Damn, but I'm clever.

Are United out of the title race now?

Yeah, West Ham are too far behind
