This is my biggest concernI feel very confident.
The reason is the absolute quality of the defence and midfield base.
If you have Ederson, with a defence from Walker, Stones, Akanji, Dias, Gvardiol and Kovacic and Rodri in front of that, you are controlling the game, against nearly every team in world football.
When you then place Haaland, Foden, Bernardo and DeBruyne in front of it, it is as good as it gets, and if that's not quite doing it, you have players like Bobb and Doku to come in, who can open up anyone. We will get the odd strange result, but I absolutely believe we will win our next three games as long as the refereeing is fair.
Jinxed it.Me too.
Pep and the players just seem so focussed on the task in hand, i would be shocked if we didn't win out now.
Good luck in the match thread tonightQuietly confident-ish. I'd say 95% in favour of us. The worries about "typical City" (yes; even with this team) are not easy to shake off.
Yeah but over a 38 game season you generally doI’m not one of the Typical City worriers. I believe in this team and manager. But I cannot shake the feeling that we are due to blow one. We’ve dodged a few bullets in our run ins before: Ianacchio’s missed sitter for Leicester, some nervy 1-0s, the odd refereeing decision and of course some life saving goals. I’ve just got this sense that one of those bullets will catch us one year and this could be it. In a one off game you don’t always get what you deserve.
If u want evidence, look at the rags record in the 90s and 2000s and look at it now and when you have finished laughing you'll see that they have a pointI’ve been chatting to a friend who is literally a statistical expert and works for a bookmaker.
The conversation was about our record at Spurs went something like this.
It’s all voodoo nonsense. It has no relevance to anything.
I said yes but it’s a fact. They said it’s just a fact. It’s only a fact until it isn’t. It has absolutely no predictive capability.
Just because it happened before doesn’t mean it has any special reason to continue.
(They’re right of course. But I’m still shitting myself about this game)
