The Title Race - 2024/25

we will win it with a point spare

I'm like you, an optimist, sometimes a blind one, but an optimist nevertheless.
Although it's not looking great, I haven't totally thrown in the towel and given up on the notion that we have enough of the season left to somehow turn it round.
Stranger things have happened.

Today was not a good result for Arsenal to be honest. I agree that it isn't over though for any of the contenders. I was at the game today and we didn't create a chance of note. That is why I am not bullish.

Ok I'll leave you with 1 more stat. There's been 1 football manager in PL history who scored more points in their 1st 12 games than Arne Slot. That manager?

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Remember United 'were back' and would challenge City right? Then they lost 2-0 at Arsenal and the wheels came off. I think Liverpool are riding a wave currently and when they get a couple of results go against them things may get tricky. Or at least I hope so!

Fair enough.

I'm fucked off. I'm down. But I'm a fucking Manchester City fan. I can't help but think with a win or two, and some big decision making from Pep (keep Ortega in the team, drop walker FFS, drop Erl and play false nine, why fucking not?... couple of solid Jan additions) we can somehow sneak back into contention in the new year.

This lot didn't suddenly forget how to play football, and I'm damn sure Pep didn't suddenly forget how to manage. We'll be back and although we might have dug ourselves too big of a hole this season, we'll be there or thereabouts in May.

I love you're optimism but no chance this team can put a double figure winning run together. Which is probably needed to even stand a chance.

Maybe if we can do some good business in January, we'll get top 4 and can build on that in the summer.

No reason we can't win it next season with the right recruitment, because the arse and dippers aren't great teams.
