5 Points

What worries me is that we go from 5 points clear to 5 points behind. That my friend, is a fucking 10 point swing and clearly shows one side consistently getting results, and the other side not.

What I fear is that United well drop points, but we might not even be able to capitalise on it.

When we've only won 2 away matches since Christmas, I do not feel very confident...and to be honest, rightly so.

I do have hope, however, and that is different from confidence.

Mate. Shit happens over a course of a season. We have dropped points through 1-0 losses away from home, while United have been grinding wins and have had a number of lucky escapes. Simple as that. But this is time to ensure that the pressure remains on them. As the OP mentioned we have to keep fighting and show them we will be gunning for them and not just fade away. To do that WE HAVE TO WIN AT ARSENAL. Game of the season now.

A win at Arsenal will tell me our players have not hoisted the white flag just yet.

That , i do agree with .....

but will we manage it ?

Against a resurgent Arsenal team .... and with us now finding ourselves playing catch-up , and all the pressure that incurs , and with us suffering from lack of form ???

We could also be eight points behind by then ...

a very important game yet again , and a definite must-win ...... no excuses this time , absolutely no room now for error!

Well weve done it before many times this season. Chelsea for instance and arsenal and home, when we starting to stutter a little. KEEP THE FAITH LADS!!!<br /><br />-- Tue Apr 03, 2012 6:19 pm --<br /><br />

Well United did lose to blackburn at home and drop points against Newcastle and Stoke.

But they beat Sunderland at home, Swansea away, Everton away.

But they beat Sunderland at home, Swansea away, Everton away. We've still to play Newcastle away. By the time the Arsenal game comes round we'll more than likely be 8points behind.

Unfortunately for me that's too much to make up.

I wonder if we get beat by Arsenal, Mancini will say that we didn't prepare well enough?
 
There is still a lot to play for, however I suspect some players in the City camp will have given up already unfortunately.
 
S.W.P TO THE RESCUE......3 POINTS AT THE EMIRATES AND WHEY HEY ITS DOWN TO 2 POINTS AND THEY STILL HAVE TO COME TO US

VERY POSSIBLE ?????

I don't think anyone can question the desire of the fans .... the average crowd number at the Etihad , and the passion and concern of the posts on here would appear to back that up.

It's the committment and desire of the players that is questionable .... how many City players were prepared to bust a gut against Sunderland ??

None , in my eyes ...

I feel your pain, but I didn't see it like that against Sunderland. There was plenty of gut-busting, just not enough quality. AJ was useless, Tevez did nothing, Kolorov with his banjo and no cow's arse in sight. De Jong should never play at home when we need to break teams down.

Mario and Dzeko and others showed plenty of passion and commitment though.
