Burnley and Fulham? Seriously? See how both of them capitulated yesterday? Against average sides as well. I can see your argument alright; both sides scrapping for points for survival. But with both of those games at OT, I just can't see past home wins.The toughest three games there could be Burnley, Spurs and Fulham, depending on other results. Leicester, Leeds and Villa are comfortable, dippers will be throwing everything at Europe.
Are people seriously questioning whether we are going to win the league ffs?
Very hard!Hey GDM old habits die hard lol.
I'd rather play an open team on the beach than a side that are fighting for survival and will park the bus and counter, especially if I had the players the rags do.Burnley and Fulham? Seriously?

To you it may be a procession, they want to create the illusion of a possible title race up until the end for a lot of other people. Don't underestimate the naivety of some folk. Utd's penalty stats are an indicator.And I was saying that the title is now a procession, so to keep the season alive it would be better and more interesting for a six team scrap for three CL places
Tick, tock, tick, tockAre people seriously questioning whether we are going to win the league ffs?
Very hard!
Burnley have won the last and drawn the previous two games at OT, they will not be a gimme for the rags.Burnley and Fulham? Seriously? See how both of them capitulated yesterday?

8 games to go for them GDM, 7 for us.This group of players (give or take) had the mental strength to win 14 on the spin two years ago with a brilliant Liverpool breathing down our necks as the spring progressed.
The notion that we’re going to surrender a fourteen point lead from here, or eleven assuming united win their game in hand, with nine games to go, is absurd.
Already corrected, but my point remains!8 games to go for them GDM, 7 for us.
Hmm. Possibly. We'll see.Burnley have won the last and drawn the previous two games at OT, they will not be a gimme for the rags.

People may point to 2012, but once united had drawn one and lost one in the run-in, our destiny was in our own hands. For this to fall into united’s hands with three games to go, we would need to lose our next four games, even if they win their game in hand, given the goal difference differential.
And those that point to ‘typical City’ conveniently forget Charlton, Bradford, Gillingham and Blackburn where we conspicuously delivered the goods when it mattered.
This isn’t arrogance, or being ‘raggy‘ - it’s the application of experience and logic. A team managed by Pep Guardiola will not lose this title from here.
I’m generally pretty cautious around making predictions but there have to be limits ffs!Bookmarked.
Nah, not really. This title is done and dusted and there's no shame in being confident of that fact.
