I don't care if it's pretty football or not. I don't care if we play well or badly. Just win City.

1-0 will do.

Well, I'd take it, in a heartbeat.
But it's worth mentioning that we may need to think about goal difference a little bit. Can you imagine if we were equal on points at the end of the final game and lost out to Liverpool on goal difference?

We're back to square one on that point. Having no natural, clinical finisher was always going to be a risk this season. We'd probably have had the league wrapped up by now if we'd signed Harry Kane.
 
City are likely to be a bit fresher than Brighton, for the latter played their first XI vs Spurs the other day.

We are winning this, maybe by 2-3 goals.
 
After that Groß Duffy of a display at the weekend, I'm expecting us to get Welbeck on track with a slam Dunk here.

They've had two major results back-to-back. That's enough. No need to be greedy, Brighton.

Players should be fired up for this one and obviously we should see the best possible 11 out there. Let's just move on from the other day and cement this title.
 
Going to be a difficult game, but hopefully we’ll have a few players back and can get the job done. Having Walker and De Bruyne available would be a huge boost, but not sure whether they’ll be risked.

KDB was warming up vs Liverpool, he would have probably played in extra time had we scored another goal. Think he will start vs Brighton and may be rested vs Watford. Walker won't be risked, imo, but hopefully will return vs Watford.

Potter and 11 behind the ball. Ask Conte and Spurs today.

Another Atletico without the violence.

Unless we score an early goal, it’s going to be a long, nervous, and frustrating night.

You didn't watch the game. It was played in the Spurs half with a red heat map in the Spurs penalty area. 0-1 massacre and a fair bit of violence and play acting from Spurs. https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1549862/Live/England-Premier-League-2021-2022-Tottenham-Brighton Arsenal 1-2 made a far better fist of it. BHA could spring a surprise and put 10 men behind the ball to conserve energy and spring out of their shell in the last quarter after going 0-2 down.

I have a feeling a few will be rested for Watford. Can’t see Rodri, De Bruyne, Walker being risked for that.
 
Brighton's last two wins and league table position may work for us as they may already be in that no mans land and may play more freely and give it a go which normally works in our favour - feeling good about this one
