The Title Race 2022/23

Yes agreed, but win our next 3 and the league is ours.

We can make it a 3 game season and ignore Brentford.

if we win our next two and arsenal drop antyhing to Brighton or Forrest we will be champions after the Chelsea game, not official champions because they could win the last game 17-0, where's the bloody calculator ;-)

Don't think arsenal will take maximum points from Brighton and forest

me to, Forest away is as tricky as our Everton game because both as it is are going down

We are in a fantastic position.

We are not guaranteed to win, but virtually all of us would have been happy to accept our position before the start of the season. We can win any game that we need to win.

If Arsenal win it from here, they will deserve it. But it's us who are the likely winners.

Wasn’t long ago Arsenal fans and their media acolytes were crowing they would be 9 points ahead when they rocked up at the Etihad. We have done remarkably well to hunt them down

At times like this you do regret dropping silly points - basically in the aftermath of the disruptive World Cup. Brentford home loss, Everton home draw, Forest away draw. Spurs and Liverpool away losses not too surprising. Still it's in our hands now, we're still in the boss seat and have the squad and experience under pressure to remain champions (5 out of last 6 seasons!)

One game at a time. Everton up next for us in the Premier League. Personally I think we'll go there and get three points comfortably.

Was hoping for dropped points from Arsenal today because our last 4 are tough. Everton will be a real challenge after Real Madrid. Chelsea have enough quality to cause us a problem even if they've been inconsistent and Brighton and Brentford are both tough. 8pts needed from a possible 12 is a good margin though. We have often needed 10-12/12 to end our season and win the league. Would have been nice to have only needed 6pts to win it on goal difference but it's in our hands so have to be happy.

Team just needs to look at it as a monster week now. Two games away and one at home. Go win them all. Then last home game against Chelsea we have to carry the boys over the line and see them through.

Can't help but feel it will go down to the last game of the season, and I am not hugely confident for some reason!

I think it'll go to last game, hopefully in our own hands. Could really have done with Newcastle getting something from today, Arsenal will win their remaining games.

 

[Damanino]

we need to make sure we dont arrive to last week with the need of winning both.

Brighton away and Brentford away are tricky as fuck. Brighton is a surprise team with De Zerbi and can hurt anyone.
while Brentford style is not a good match for us, only team to win at Etihad.

we should be confident going to Everton to win
Their form is appalling, they lost at home to Fulham amd Newcastle recently
They will look to sit deep and hit us with set pieces but We have Harland and de bruyne and they need to win
