Leicester had 1 big wank.
We've just had 4 without stopping cumin.
The dippers get hard but can't cum.
And the rags haven't had a bone on for 12 years.


no idea where that philosophy cum from
 
Worth pointing out that every team has a blip every season. Arsenal have had one, City are in one. Dippers will have one. I remember at the start of the season thinking 'damn it City keep winning games and this is supposedly their shit part of the season'. Contrast to today. And some of you guys are lamenting the fact that the title has 'gone' because you're so far behind the victims yet you forget they'll go through a period where they will drop points.

Nothing is over and just take a look at your fixtures from end Feb onwards, compare them with the Dippers. Arsenal also have an easy run in apart from a trip to Anfield.

So it seems like the title is a million miles away yet things will absolutely change. I'll put money on it that the top 2 will be City and Arsenal, not sure what order that will be but while it seems ridiculous now I'll wager Liverpool get 3rd as they've had a piss easy fixture list so far - even their 1 tough game at the Emirates they were playing a depleted Arsenal team that lost its back line during the game. They'll have much trickier fixtures to come, they'll come thick and fast and they'll be balancing with the CL.

Only thing I'd say is watching today's match I did feel some of the City players weren't giving 100%. Savinho for one. Akanji also. Pep will need to look at that as the minimum expectation to play for a Pep side is you work like hell for the team.

Every season before Xmas City have 'lost the title'. Every season. Then once Feb arrives they get their shit together and grind it out. Why would it be any different this time?
 
If it's not over today it could be if we get turned over at Anfield next week.

I'm not one to throw in the towel but it's a season too far for this squad I think. Would have been tricky with a fit squad: a few key players have lost a yard, I don't know what happened to Phil at the start of the season, a few players are just a touch too young or not at the boil yet, and ultimately that Kalvin Phillips disaster has caught up with us.

It might get worse before it gets better, but I think we'll have enough for top four.
 
If City get relegated because of 115, we’d piss the Championship. Another trophy for Pep. :-) And a trophy he’s never won before.
 
We need to start lining up targets and treating this as a transition year. Dippers had a one every third season. We really fucked up in the summer by not buying a top quality player. We’ve done this nearly every season, buy a top top player. We need to go big on at least 3 players now such has been our negligence.

This seaosn is fucked as far as the title goes. Top 4 is the target now and a trophy would be nice but top 4 is priority. We’ll likely be out of the top 4 next weekend.
 
Arguably we won the PL last season with a team that was weaker than previous campaigns so apart from hoping or expecting our rivals to suffer an equally poor run of form (possible) or Pep to find a way of making us more solid without Rodri (doubtful) our only hope seems to be either blind faith or two major signings in January.
