This league is over. I understand City fans not wanting to celebrate too early, but this title has been in the bag since October. I also think you'll break several records that Chelsea are currently the holders of;
Most goals scored - Record is 103 by Chelsea in 09/10. City currently on 79 with 11 games left.
Most points - Record is 95 by Chelsea in 04/05. City currently on 72 with 11 games left.
Most wins in a season - Record is 30 set by Chelsea in 16/17. City currently on 23 with 11 games left.
One record that you will not be breaking, and will not be broken by anyone for a long, long time is goals conceded. Chelsea conceded just 15 goals in the entire 04/05 season.
Overall, this will be a record breaking season for you guys, and if you can follow it up with another title next season, whilst also wining the CL this season or next season, I would argue there is a case for this City team to be the best in PL history.
How you would you guys prefer to end the season. Win the title at home vs United, or win it before and have United and Mourinho give City players a guard of honour? I suspect it is the former :)
Each to their own I suppose. I'll continue to just take this season game by game, it's about all the energy I can put into our season.If we have the start to the season we’ve had this season I’d imagine it would be around about the same time in the season as this thread started. Guess it would also depend on how the opposition were doing if any of them had managed to keep pace with us or if they were even further behind than what the rags have been so far this year.
One game at a time is a top motto and is why we are where we are now. I’m still spending endless hours working out which ground and game will be the one where it becomes mathematically done!
Ditto. After Utd's defeats to Spurs and Newcastle it became a question of When rather then if. Even City can't totally feck up 6 times more than Utd or (realistically) 7 times more than Liverpool in 11 games.I'm an eternal pessimist, and even I can't see us not winning it from here.
It is extremely hard to limit mistakes during a season, set pieces, penalties, freekicks. Conceding under 20 goals is an extremely tall order. If anyone is going to break it though, it would probably be this City team. Please don't though. Stripping us of all records, we've set over a period of 15 years in just 2-3 seasons is humiliating.
Doubt it. They renewed him less than a month ago.
They are going to spend unbelievable sums this summer before the FFP 2.0 barrier comes down.
