Why we will win the league!

[LangleyBlue1970]

The break after this weekends cup games has come at a welcome time. Hopefully scouse get a couple of injuries or at least lose momentum.

We regroup and get focussed for what is going to be an intense run in. Tomorrow is a changer, potentially. Should we draw Liverpool their arses will drop. 3 games, 2 at home, all to play for. We’ll come through that.

We are mentally solid and know how to deal with what is coming up. I cannot bleeding wait for the Burnley game. On we go!

People in here really are burying their heads in the sand. We were fourteen points ahead in January and now it’s down to one. There’s no way we’ll manage to hold onto it now unless Liverpool collapse, which is highly unlikely at this stage.

It was never really fourteen points though, was it. I think everyone assumed Liverpool would win their games in hand so it was only ever an eight point gap. A seven point swing since January is still bad, mind you.

Some absolute fannies in here. We’ve won 16 out of 19 games and lost 1 game since October. They think it should all be a cake walk and don’t want the fight. The best titles are won when it’s neck and neck.

City and Liverpool are both great teams. All it takes is 2-3 off results for a lead to be gone and it’s only natural both sides will have mini blips since no team can win forever. They had their drop in December, we’ve had ours over the last month. It’s swings and roundabouts.

Not only that but this kind of title race is better for our CL hopes. When we played Chelsea in the final it had been weeks since our strongest side had played because we’d won the league so early.

Personally I’m excited to confront Liverpool at our place. It’s like a rematch from 2019 which was one of the best atmospheres we’ve had in the modern era. I’m up for that just like I was then.

And as importantly so will Bernardo

Yep and with half a season to go it’s like we went 14 points ahead of Liverpool with them 2 games in hand we only had 10 games left!

It’s why I found it incredible that some high profile fans podcasters were saying it done in their opinion! Really with only half season to go that is utter arrogance.

When we win our next three games we will be in the FA Cup semi and at least four points clear in the league with seven games to go of which four are at home. Stop all the fanny wiping and get behind the boys.

It is, but it shows how quickly things can change if one team is winning all their games and the other isn't. There was a 7 point swing from Liverpool to us over Christmas in far fewer games than it's taken them to currently make up 7 points on us!

Winning it from here would really rile up the dippers. They are now in a position of hope and expectancy. It will crush them.

Oh the joys, come on city make it happen

Don’t forget, the dips don’t care about us ;)

He's simply not good enough. He dropped off Pep's radar ages ago.

Yet he has our best record for non penalty goals and assists. He clearly is good enough

As will the Dippers.
As Mancini used to say “eeesa football”

Apparently They’ve been dropping points every game for the last month or so , still waiting for it to happen. Hope I’m wrong but I have the feeling they won’t.
