Bit of a quandary for me, because whilst not exactly heartbroken about them going out last night, I would rather that they had stayed in and faced a fixture issue the extra games would have brought.
Difference is we know how to get the job done
Her aim will hopefully improve :)Missing me, Kaz? How sweet!
All it takes is one slip from Arsenal in any of their remaining games (not counting the one against us). Even a draw. Mind you, we'd have to be perfect on the run in. And we still have to go to Brighton, Brentford, Fulham and Everton as well as Liverpool and Arsenal still to come to the council house. Not an impossible task, but a difficult one.11 games is over 1/4 of a season left.
And this is what makes City the best around. How many other clubs are still properly competing on 3 fronts? We do it year on year as well. AND this year we haven’t been anywhere near our best.You’ve still not got a date for West Ham and Brighton could also need rearranging should you beat Burnley tomorrow. With many of your players involved in internationals next week, lots of games before we meet at the Etihad. I think you will play 9 fixtures and we have 5.
We've still got to go to Saints, Brighton, Everton, Fulham, and a final day fixture at Brentford. No gimmes in that lot, unless you count the game at St Mary's as "easy". The Carabao Cup game there has next to no relevance as we were ropey at that time and also had a lot of B team players out that night.And most of our real difficult game are at home while they play away.
