It's far too early to write City off, but our current squad bears no comparison to a couple of years ago.
We can go on a run but we're probably going to be relying on three or four teams having a complete meltdown.

Who do people think is more likely to win it if we don’t (which is looking more likely week by week)

If we go on that run, they will have that meltdown.

I'm not giving up on it yet. No way. But we need a serious improvement in the "GA" column. We can't keep conceding at the rate we're doing, if we want to achieve the four-in-a-row.

The run was meant to start last weekIf we go on that run, they will have that meltdown.
Drawing to Palace wasn’t part of the plan

The last time we didn’t have Gundogan was 2016/17 after his injury and we finished third and won nothing. We don’t have a replacement for Gundogan and we’ve lost that control he brought. It means we don’t have the ability to shut matches down late on.
So much of our team now thrive on quick play but we’re trying to play a controlled game. It’s like asking a heavy metal band to play classical music, you’ll get some interesting music but you won’t get the best out of themz.
Nail on the head, you don't win titles if you have a leaky defence. We need Stones back in the starting 11 and Walker needs to be dropped and play Akanji at rb.I'm not giving up on it yet. No way.

Shouldn't that be "doy" for the Villa?As Geezer Butler (Black Sabbath bass player) said whist being dragged away to the cells in the USA at gun point in the 1970s "I'll fcuking die for the Villa".
