Yankee doodle Todd reporting to Clearlake that 8th in the league out of 92 clubs is progress under Potter.

Looking at Chelsea, is there anyone who‘d get into City’s team? Ziyech, maybe? I don’t see anyone else good enough.

Ziyech is a poor man’s Mahrez.

Poor set of results for us this weekend, no point saying otherwise.

Agreed. So it's down to us to ensure we get out of this lethargic spell. It's something that happens to every club and I'm pretty certain Pep will get us through, no problems.

Energy and intensity get foden and Alvarez into the side and bring cancelo back in ..

Ours was the bad one for us, with arsenal winning, but otherwise not much damage was done, don't really see anyone else being a threat. As we play chelsea in the week, I think I'd have preferred them to win today, because they'll now be desperate to beat us.

I'm sure PGMOL will do their very best on Thursday.

I was looking at the Spurs and Chelsea results being beneficial to the Mickeys and rags in the battle for a top 4 spot, moreso than any effect on us, to be honest.

Agreed. The so-called new pretenders to the throne got terrible results frankly: Newcastle and Spurs. Chelsea showed why they are finished as far as this year's league title is concerned. Am I worried about United and Liverpool? Not on your nelly.
Our only concern should be Arsenal, and whether we can catch them. We should be looking up at them – because they're the benchmark – not behind us. It looks hard at present, with both teams playing at thoroughly different levels of fluency. By the end of January we'll have a better idea whether we can mount a serious challenge. I'm downright glad we've got these tough fixtures coming up. In all our title winning seasons, with the exception of 17-18, we screwed up in matches we weren't expected to, against so-called ‘minor’ teams. Remember Sunderland at Christmas 2011-12? And Swansea in the same season? More recently, Palace, Newcastle (‘minor’ at the time)?
Long way to go.
