A lot of nonsense about winning the title by February , actually think it will be easter at the earliest , although would like it all done before the Rags game so they can give us a guard of honour
The team spirit we're seeing is the biggest factor, even those not playing regularly are in on it, it needs a complete disaster on our part which doesn't look very likely right now.It’s done. There’s no way this group of players are blowing a lead like this.
Yeah, but they were underdogs throughout that season. When I said ‘top’, I meant widely perceived as such.Newcastle blew a 12 point lead and they had a decent side. This team however is by a mile better than they were though.
What if we lose Silva, kev, Kun, otamendi and Delphi to injury? It's over if we avoid injuries.
I don’t think so even then. If that nightmare had happened six weeks ago then maybe, but I think we are already too far ahead.
We have fantastic options in all those areas. No one is saying gundog and Bernardo are as good as Kevin and merlin but they are good players and know the system. A major run of injuries would IMO mean we would lose games against the top 6 but even a City team lacking silva, de bruyne and aguero is good enough to beat most teams.
The only one that troubles me is ederson.
Bit premature - the rags are grinding results out and are only 11 behind. Could be 8 or 9 Sunday. Let’s not get giddy!!
On tonight's showing it could also be 14, they were rank against Bournemouth judging from the Sky 30 minute highlights.Bit premature - the rags are grinding results out and are only 11 behind. Could be 8 or 9 Sunday. Let’s not get giddy!!
