Didn't realise how tough these fixture were until now :( that's one hell of a fixture list in 1 month against some very tough teams. The 4 league games we play compared to our title rivals are scary Che,Ars & Liverpool all very winnable games. Can't from those fixture see us being top by end of Jan so imo if we're 2/3 points from top that'll be a very good achievement.
What do u guys recon?

How important is the Carling Cup? Maybe play no normal starters? It would not be a bad schedule if those matches
were eliminated - play the youth. Is it a trap to go for that trophy? Surely winning the Premier League and healthy
bodies is a priority. (and CL and FA Cup).
gonna be pretty hard to be out of CL in Feb considering the second leg is in mid March.regista said:january is no so bad. february can potentially be heart breaking. how will the players react if they crash out of the champions league?
no mate its a trophy were favorites to win.pellers has got to win 5 trophys in 3 years apparently so it ll be the first of 4 this yearbretonblue said:citytill1die84 said:Some tough away trips for City and vital cup games coming up.

umm, no. We drew there last season.Mr. Aguia said:The only one that worries me is Swansea. We have lost both games there the last 2 seasons. Seems to be an unlucky trip. They have been struggling at home this year so hopefully we can take advantage. West Ham at home should be no problem, even away I'm not too concerned. They just can't score enough to trouble us. Spurs has been poor at home and again they don't score many. Newcastle has been good this year though we always seem to do the double on them. I think we will be in 1st with a few points cushion.

City the whole season is tough, successful teams play lots of games, and the secret is to win them
