The Title Race 2022/23

Like Laporte said :)

That’s a huge disservice to our boys.

We have won it fair and square and deservedly so.

Not done, ‘til it’s done but we are quite simply the best team in the Premier League and probably the best Premier League, if not English club side, ever.

Now we need to focus on Madrid and make sure we get to another final.

 

[WestGorton]

The pictures at half time in our game of them arriving at the Emirates told me they were men under severe pressure. Not surprised they lost and gave us a mega boost. Just need to calm down and focus on Wednasday now.

We move on to the most important game of the season.

To be fair, I don’t think it’s Arsenal that are the bottlers, as some have said. At least they gave it a go. The real bottlers are Liverpool, Rags, Spurs and Chelsea.

Edwin Hawkins Singers had it right for days like this...
OH, HAPPY DAY!!

 

[blueinsa]

While we deserve full credit for taking care of our own games, you can't look at this and say they haven't bottled it either...

They've dropped points in situations and winning positions that they shouldn't because they couldn't hack the pressure

We had a game in hand and they had to play us still.

We have blown them out of the water it’s that’s simple.

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

Spot on mate - the Everton result broke them, and they had no fight left in them today.

Bunch of lightweight, bottling cunts had it in their hands a few weeks back, and handed it to us on a plate.

An offer a team like ours is never going to refuse!

In other words southerners.
No fight

"It is going to be very difficult now we have to be honest. It is tough to take.

It is not a good feeling at the moment. The way we played, particularly in the second half, I don't know what happened to be honest. It feels like there is no hope now."

Wooof, that is NOT fighting talk from Odegaard! Towel job whilst still in with an outside chance? Interesting where their heads are at then.

That Liverpool title run hurt more than just Liverpool players it seems. They know when it matters we churn the results out

Arsenal have overachieved this season.

 

[pudge]

Where's that Arsenal **** with his league table t-shirt?

 

[Phoenix900000]

Yes my boy :)

 

[inbetween]

Another team that has 'blown' it against us... I'm not sure if we'll ever get the credit we deserve because they know they have to call us the best ever if they do.

Arsenal would win the league had it not been for us and Liverpool in recent seasons were the same.

What they don't understand though is that Arsenal today were still in the title race but they've been beaten by Brighton at home. That isn't about blowing it, tiredness or anything else, it's about mentality.

We're not in a title race, we're in for 3 trophies, we played Madrid away this week and we still pull it together and go away to Everton and win. The mentality that Pep has built here is unstoppable and won't be repeated.

 

[ManCityGR!]

Would be nice if Arsenal draw at Forest

We would have won the title but not if u know what I mean

In case of a win of the championship at Chelsea game and a pitch invasion afterwards(after last year's incidents etc), is there any possible penalty of points deduction by FA or there are just other punishments(financial maybe)?

 

[Chopper2115]

Wow what a crazy season it has been for us.

So proud of how the club and fans held a siege mentality after we were charged off the Premier league, we are all watching most likely the highest of peaks we will ever have as a club and I’m just glad I am alive to witness it.

Get it sorted on Sunday please

 

[Cobwebcat]

Trophy lift Sunday

 

[vmsuhail]

Yep. Couldn’t see it in January the way we were playing. Getting rid of Cancelo was a masterstroke for me. Pep sending out a don’t fuck with me message or you are out of here. Since then we have been brilliant.

No. Even after Cancelo left, City still lost to Tottenham. People are forgetting that we had issues finding Haaland during the middle of the season.

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

It might seem to some that it's all over and that was a great win today. Gundogan was outstanding. That flicked finish...brilliant... that assist for Haaland, were you watching Bernardo, Mahrez and Grealish? That's how you find a blue shirt. And that free kick...my goodness.
But steady on guys...we've won nothing yet. Focus.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

I can’t see Arsenal getting a better shot anytime soon.

They had things going in their favour simply not in their own control this year. Us being massively distracted by the World Cup, rags, dippers, spurs and Chelsea all underperforming at a scale none of us could have predicted.

Next season expectation for arsenal will lump even more pressure on them and all of the above won’t occur again.

So yes, we are a juggernaut. But arsenal, that’s their shot and they have missed like no other team ever has.

Arsenal have overachieved this season.

Yea but still got to give them credit. Young side and played some great football.
