Do you really believe the league is over...?

Anything can happen in this league. All down to mentally getting over the line now because we know we have the ability. A good rest this week will do the lads the world of good to go again against leicester

I can see Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal coming away with at least 1 point from the Library.

We'll see, but I don't. Their home record is pretty good and now they have Sanchez and Pogba is fit unlike early on in the season. They are jammy ****s as we all know and refs will be absolutely on instruction to make the title race competitive if at all possible. We can expect the usual ludicrous refereeing decisions in their favour.

Im nervous about the Chelsea and Arsenal games, especially with so many injuries. If we lose one and draw the other it would take our lead to 8 and we’d all get pretty nervous about it. It’s not over yet.

We'd have to lose 5 out of 12 and they would need to win every game, and that make's you nervous. It's a possibility but not a very likely one.

It's not obviously over - but we're flying - not dropping any obviously unnecessary points. The league has no answer to our style - sit in on defense and we'll eventually score - press us and we're better than you - likely a worse score line. What's best is probably what Burnley have done - sit in - lump it - and hope for the best. Won't work most of the time - but is likely best against our side.

TL/DR - it's not mathematically over, but as a practical matter, it's extremely hard to see that we won't comfortably win the league, let alone break point total records while doing so.

United will get injuries too, there's no way they are all going to be healthy for the remainder of the season, they have plenty of games coming up too, so how people think they're going to win 11 or 12 of the final 12 matches is beyond me. Newcastle will hopefully be 'physical' on Sunday:)

Ignore the rags - 5 wins and 7 draws and we will be fine. They won't win every game.

It’s not likely at all but this is City mate can never shake that off lol

Fucking hell I'm depressed now. We will still get top 4 though right?

Pretty sure we can't get relagated
So enjoy the ride.

Put it this way, we could win the league cup,the FA cup and the champions leagud as well but if wesomehow fucked the title up from here Pep should rightly be sacked.
no lub in league history has fucked up a position like this. There are only us and the rags who can get to 90 points and they would have to have to win 11 and draw the remaining game to do so.

If their form continues then they are on track to finish on 81 points, we coukd afford to draw every game and still pip them on goal difference.

Dont forget that they have the CL and FA cup games to play as well, they will also tire as we are.

I think United's output will increase with Sanchez and ours will drop with the injuries we have. The one key thing we have is how difficult to beat we are this season, I can see us dropping points but only Arsenal/Spurs are capable of beating us in the remaining fixtures. I can't see this United team winning 13 in a row, only 3 teams have ever done it before.

I'll be kicking myself all week at the thought of Sterling's miss, but we are more than capable of beating Leicester (especially without Mahrez) to calm us all down again.
