Apologies West Ham (A) for Arsenal should be the 16th May, will correct it when I get the chance.


I do think away games at Everton and Southampton won't be easy but I'm just relatively comparing. In fact a lot of the games marked in green will be a lot harder given the time of the season they're being played.

I do think we need Arsenal to win on Thursday to keep them playing Thursday, Sunday and keep them distracted:

They play twice before we play Liverpool, it would be nice if we weren't 8 behind (with a game in hand) going into that game. FiveThirtyEight have them between a 6/10 and 7/10 to win in their next 2 games.

I think Arsenal's away games are a lot tougher than ours.

City, Liverpool and Newcastle have only lost a single home game each this season.

Even Forest have taken points in 10 of their 13 home games, and those three losses were in the first month of the season.

If we keep winning and beat them in April maybe. But in real terms they have been generally better than us so far and it is the hope that recent historical experience will play to our advantage that keeps my hopes alive.
 
Fantastic, we’ve just won the league! Gunners are singing “we’re gonna win the league” Remember United singing “ City’s cracking up”?
 
Was expecting fulham to get something today.
Starting to think we are running out of games.
 
We really needed them to drop points against either United, Villa or Bournemouth. They were never going to be in tight games relying on late winners every week like some thought.

I still believe we can do it but I think we'll need to beat them at our place.
 
I think this can be another City Liverpool like title race. I think they may drop enough points so that we are 1 point above/below them with 5 6 games to go and each team has to win each of their games.
 
Fair play Gooners, they're playing like Champions. Making a tough game on paper look easy, playing with style and ruthlessness. Unfortunately we're the team that look like dropping the odd point. We make it harder that it should be.

Both us and arsenal will drop points

Definitely. And I bet it won’t be where you expect. It’s never surprising in a title run-in for teams to have odd results; Arsenal could go to Anfield and win 0-3 but lose to Forest.

But I think we’ll drop points n’all.
 
I think we need to stay within 5 points of them. I think they drop points against liverpool us and newcastle personally. after this international break is when the run in starts. Its also when odd results start to occur.
 
Past performance not always a good indicator of future performance. There's going to be some twists and turns in the final 30% of games. Arsenal will start thinking about winning the PL. They will get nervous. Come on City!
