The battle for 3rd place

[Bill]

What advantage does 3rd place give over 4th?

although people will say we avoid a play, which is true, the main reason for finishing 3rd is we can recruit much earlier. we can steal a transfer march on our rivals seeking to sign the same players. from the moment 3rd is secure we go and get the very best players in and give them an entire pre season with us.

Nail on head bill. We need to have 3 more performances like yesterday, get 3rd and get shopping!

Fantastic weekend for City, beat Leicester and that could be an equally good weekend, with the other teams chasing top 4 all away.

We could nick 2nd if Spurs implode

Good point that Bill - let's hope so!

Surely we're already working behind the scenes on transfers, or do we wait until the final whistle blows at the last game and then give Tixki a huge pile of coke, a laptop and mobile and lock him in a room?

7 points will get 3rd and i think 3 more will get 4th as I don't see arsenal or the rags winning all there remaining games!!!!
