3-0 City.....Jess (offside tap in), Gundog (dubious penalty), Cancelo (30 yard screamer)

I know we're a bit short of strikers right now but not sure that bringing in Jess Park from the women's team is the answer.

This has just become the biggest game of the season for us, a win for us and a defeat or draw for the Rags away to Arsenal and suddenly there is a 4 point gap and a game in hand over the Rags.

Leicester are the team we need to be wary of now.

I agree that Leicester are the best of the rest and pose the biggest threat. Each time I watch them, they look like they are hungry for a win and have great team spirit. Vardy has proved himself to be a top striker as opposed to a one season wonder, and Brendan Rogers has something to prove having got so close with Liverpool a few seasons back.

Massive Banana skin take note of their win tonight. I take City to come through another tough game. They’re all tough let’s have it right.very happy blue tonight though

Not overly concerned about this game.

Reason being,I never bought in to the Rags were title challengers.One or two said i was wrong.I wasn't,you take away all their Pens,and other VAR gifts,and you are left with a pretty ordinary mid table side.Rags are not much different to Sheff United.

Dont mean it will be an easy game,it wont.

I expect they will put up a bit of resistance early on.Then we will take full control,and win comfortably.

Our Football will do the talking.

Tonight has just made Pep's team talk and planning easy. If anyone around the squad was complacent about this fixture, they won't be now.

Regardless of tonight's result they are still our closest rival atm. Bit premature to rule them out 1 point behind us.

Honestly i just dont rate them.

I think Leicester,possibly Spurs are more realistic title challengers.

Rags just have a decent front 3,4,the rest of the side is Meh.

Pogba blows hot and cold quicker than a broken hair dryer.

Their defense is not good either.

They have no chance of winning the League, won't finish top 3.
