The lad is injured again, seemingly turning him into the Spanish Michael Owen.

They are pretty heavily dependant on the man himself and yet he is in and out of the team and seemingly prone to hamstring niggles and muscle issues.

Its all good news for City of course.

Add in these facts

Liverpool have a half fit/ready Torres and Gerrard

United have Rooney who is clearly not on song

Chelsea have more injuries than you can shake a stick at and other significant problems.

The Title is quite simply City's to lose ;-)
 
Ah shame. Seem to recall him saying City wont have the same great team spirit in the dressing room. Funny that, he spent the whole summer and prior months trying to get a move away.
 
Their midfield is very strong,Nasri has almost developed into his equal imo,also Walcott,Arshavin,Song,wilshere,Rosicy,Denilson etc.

RVP now fit,i honestly don't think they are reliant on him anymore.

As above 4th will do me fine,anything else a bonus.
 
If Gareth Barry keeps up his massive improvement in form of late then it's ours, he's playing like a world beater at present!
 
Although it's obviously good for City and the rest of the PL it's areal tragedy for Fabregas' career that he keeps getting injured in this way. To me Wenger is ruining the career of one of the best players in the world by continually rushing him back and playing him in too many games.

But the points about Torres, Gerrard and Rooney going through similar experiences shows the lack of depth at those clubs. Chelsea have been really unlucky with the number of their injuries as all of Lampard, Essien, Terry, Alex and Drogba (malaria) would be in their 1st 11 and no team can cope with that many injuries/illnesses to key players.. But it does show up the lack of previous depth there too. In fact the strongest squads in the PL are now us and Spurs.

I'm not getting giddy about our chances just yet, but the next month or so could be very good for us if we can hit a good run of form. Then, who knows? But I'd still favour utd and Chelsea for the title at the moment. But I think we'll overtake Arsenal quite soon, as will Spurs.

A good win on Saturday with a couple more slip ups from the others, who've all played CL games this week, would certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons and increase my chances of giddiness though...

Come on City. Time to step up to the plate and send one into the bleachers.

They have done without him so far this season

Chelsea will come good, they played Birmingham off the park on Saturday, just one of those days.

Arsenal are done, same time every season this happens.

Spurs COULD challenge, depends on this weekends result, European hangover maybe.
