Pretty sure Liverpool play 6 games in the league by the time we have played our next 4. They have Leicester tonight and Leeds a week Wednesday I believe where as we have a free week in between Everton and United.

In regards to the interesting post from @Cobwebcat I gusss I am a very pessimistic person by nature. I have backed Liverpool at the bookies to soften the blow if the worst happens. May as well make money from my misery.

City have cost me quite a lot of money over the years as they thankfully continue to win things. Only real win was the champs league final which with the winnings aloud us to get a dog my son named foden. Sometimes I hate that dog.

Sorry, I saw our next 4 games listed, against Liverpool's next 4 games.

Point taken then, if it is still 6 points means we'd both have won all our games in that stretch and we'd be on the same number played.

I suppose we could sequence win one, lose one, of our remaining 14 games, but it sort of puts in to perspective the remarkable winning machine we have become!

I'd expect us to take at least 30 points from our remaining 42.

That's ninety points right there. Call it two losses and three draws from 14, or even three losses and a draw (which would be an eleven point drop on the latter)

Liverpool are basically going to have to do 41 points from remaining 48 to clip 91 points and if any of those lost seven points are against City, it will become 44 points from 48 or 43.

If my maths are right?

I'm looking at it from the point of view that if we lose one game we'll only be 3 points ahead and still to play them.

So technically one loss and it's back in Liverpool's hands... hope that restores your twitchiness!
 
I'm still quite relaxed. They have a better squad, but a lot of games to catch up on and it can take its toll. We need to have a drop off in form and they need to put a run together. Based on the last few seasons both of those scenarios are quite unlikely to happen at the same time. They've had two great seasons and still only managed to win the title once.

But we've come back from bigger gaps before, so it is possible and you know they'll be focussed on taking all three points at our place the way we were when we played them in that January to peg them back. Overall unless something amazing happens they don't seem the same cohesive defensively robust unit they once were. Cardiff's goal was very easy and a lot of teams have cut them open like that this season - Leicester being one.

Mate come on. They have a better squad. Not in a million years. Granted they do have some very good players but our squad outweighs that mob by a country mile.
