The 100/104 goal chase

As much as I have loved the big scoring games. The shakhtar and especially Chelsea matches were more satisfying because we were challenged but overcame them comfortably.

Still on course for that big total too.

They were the best wins of the season for sure. 1st half v Shakhtar they were the better team I thought, but the way we came back in the 2nd half was great. I just watched the entire 2nd half v Chelsea online and I appreciate the performance even more than before! Watching it without the match day nerves is just phenomenal. Utter domination. I suppose now, Stoke is a huge test for the team. They need to show that after 2 intense games, they can still play with tempo, with high pressing, with good build up against a mundane opponent straight after the glamour tie. We need to kick on again the same as we did after Liverpool. We need to fucking own this league.

To be honest, Shakhtar could and should have been another mauling.

We missed at least 3 or 4 golden opportunities.

Aguero missed the penalty.
Sterling missed his first chance when it looked easier to score.
Sané shot when he could have squared it for a tap in.
Aguero shot when he could have squared it for a tap in to Sané off that amazing Silva pass.

For me, that Shakhtar game was an example of a game where our finishing completely deserted us, but we still won, whereas last season we were drawing those games - like the Everton home or Stoke at home games.

The fact it was against actually very good opposition who posed us some problems in the first half just makes it even more impressive that we created all those chances.

Was just looking at sky bet and they've added the 104 goal bet again but at 20/1 now if anyone fancies it. Just go on football - specials - premier league request a bet - manchester city request a bet and it's there.
 
Two 5-0 victories in the next two home games would be nice! Played 9 scored 32! Would boost it to 3.56 per game and leave us on course for 135 goals!!
 
Sure someone's already done this maths, but at the current rate we're on track to bag 119 and concede just 11 in the league this season. Of course that's very unlikely but our great start means we only need to score 2.65 goals a game to reach 104.
