It’s no more embarrassing than it is arrogant when people were saying “it’s done” when we still needed 20 points (which was happening), or even 11.

It just means some people worry more than others.

Football is unpredictable. Nothing that’s gone before now matters towards what’s coming. City could just as likely end the season how we started it, as much as we could end the season winning every game.

We’ve displayed both extremes of brilliant and terrible over the last two seasons. When it really mattered last Summer we were unforgivably shit against Arsenal and Lyon, and we started this season terribly; we also finished second in the league and won the EFL Cup last season, and went on a 21 game winning run this season.

Either City, or neither City, could turn up to end this season. We could get 11 points in our reaming six games like we did in our opening six games and just get there on the final day, we could win every game and smash it, we could be somewhere in the middle. Nobody knows.

I’m not particularly worried, myself. I’m still quite calm but also realistic because it is definitely not done yet. Doesn’t matter how many points clear we are or what the odds are at the bookies; it’s never done until it’s mathematically done.

That's the point though, even if we have an end to the season as bad as the start and United have a perfect record from now on we still win the league.

That's how comfortable it is.

Us not winning the league is as likely as Leeds or Villa will finish top 4 but no one on here would dream of saying that is a possibility as they have some objectivity.

I bet there is more confidence of the rags winning the league on here than there is on redcafe ffs.
 
They will win all their remaining games. You could see today they think they can win the league now.
We had the chance to close the door, pretty much, yesterday but we took victory for granted against a decent counter attacking side and gave them the incentive.
They will piss the Europa league and can afford to attack the premier league games because they've got enough up front in reserve and will destroy shit opposition.
We chose to rest players because we face a good Dortmund side on Wednesday and, should we get through, we will have to rest players again.
However we have seen those coming in are not good enough/playing well enough to win without 3 or4 of the key players being in the team.

Very unlikely
 
The Champions League needs binning starting from next season.

Only focus on domestic competitions.
Why do that, stop flapping and enjoy the ride. We might lose on Wednesday but so what, at least we tried. The day we get like liarpool (but slightly bigger) is the day I'm out.
