The Title Race - 2024/25

[Really_here]

I miss Merlin, Yaya, Zabba, Dinho, Komps, Leroy, FFS and Raz. Sigh. Oh for those fast days and creative days ....

The bit I miss most of all is FAST , we're very very predictable and slow in our build up and always vulnerable to fast counter attacks.

On positive note, next year might be good with no CL or Europa league, team will have much lighter schedule and can focus on Carabou Cup.

This thread should be locked now, no?

Change the title to "The top four race"

..and next month we change it to "The top ten stutter" and so on...

But fuck that. The title is (long) gone. Make top 4. Have a crack at the cups. Fine margins. Stranger things have happened

Up the blues. Back the boss. Support the team

Think we need to put this in the general football thread to be honest or change it to Champions league place race

[Dawsenna]

Time this was put into general football and top 4 one was made but even that looks out of reach at the moment

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Totally overpowering the other team.

Can Navas still run? He may have some spare Saturday afternoons and midweek evenings.

January

Bellingham £150m
Bruno £100m
Pedro Porro £40m
Rashford £0m

We could still win it

Have moved this to the general forum, as it seems pretty certain that City won't be involved in the race. Should a miracle happen, it can be moved back.

I don’t like Rashford at £0 million. Thinks that is a bit steep!

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

We are still breaking records. The cartel clubs let’s be having you!?

George Graham had a point. You build strong sides from the defence up. If you don't concede, you don't lose. Radical, eh?

 

[Gray]

It’s over.

 

[Pancake Arse]

I fucking despise them but it's their's to lose

 

[Delphinho]

Bellingham £150m
Bruno £100m
Pedro Porro £40m
Rashford £0m

We could play prime KDB, Rodri, Aguero and Messi for the rest of the season and still wouldn’t catch the dippers

That's what Mancini did.

 

[RayCTID]

If you don't have your better defenders fit for long periods of the season you'll struggle. Never mind keeping up with the pace of being involved in a title race.

Yeah can’t see them dropping any more points tbh. They always finish the season really strongly too.

 

[Damanino]

if we go win the last 20 round we can finish on 88 points maximum.bloody hell I would accept 68 points now total as that gives us the 4th about 3-4 times out of 5. even that is 40 more points with some real hard games in the schedule
