Meanest defence in the country

and we'll need to be again against QPR and possibly Liverpool. I want this clean sheet run to continue. I still believe in the saying "Attack wins games, Defence wins championships," in the long run, it will see us over the line ahead of United. After all, if you don't concede, you only need 1 goal :)

I'm not so sure ......

we were top scorers in the Premiership last season ......

and the way the rags are scoring goals , and winning games , we're gonna have to come up with many more wins ..... they are conceding goals , but they are scoring more than they are conceding , and they are ahead of us on points !

We really need to convert more of our chances , or we will continue to do the chasing ....
we also had the best defence. Yes, our attack could improve a bit, particularly our strikers play, but they don't have pressure having to score loads. United and their "you score 3, we score 4" is very risky. And very reliant on van Persie to come up with those moments of magic.
 
Solid defences win titles, not goal sprees and flat track bullying.

QPR 3 City 1; the jinx has struck!


I'll take a 3-1 win to be fair though.

Will that Taarabt be playing .....

or is he in Africa with Morocco??

That guy is a very good player , and would obviously be a big threat to us .....

The team that concedes the fewest goals has won the EPL more often than the one that scored the most over (at least) the last several seasons; although the champions are sometimes the team that scores the most and concedes the fewest. Dest defence has the edge though.
