Why we will win the league!

[Dax777]

Watching city's run of 8 successive wins in the league, i keep thinking of Manuel Pellegrini's quote from 2014 season, that it is very difficult to win 14 successive games to win a league and if anyone does it, they deserve it. I just hope Liverpool drop points once this season as it will allow city to drop points once in this run. If not for fixture congestion, city would win the next 6 games but with the fixtures as they have fallen, just does not feel straight forward.

Yup. Sadly that's why I need us to win Tmrw

I've been saying this for a while. If Liverpool beat Chelsea AND Tottenham. They will win the league.

City are going to drop points in their run in. So we need a 1 game buffer. I can see us getting a draw or loss in tbe next 3-4 games. They are difficult.

They're half way if they beat Chelsea they ain't dropping points the rest of the way. Huddersfield and Cardiff have picked up 0 points vs the top 6 this season. Newcastle away is a dead rubber game at that point and the fat waiter wont even bother. The last game which is wolves probably won't have anything to play for either.

For us we play United and Tottenham both are trying for top 4. Palace should have been a dead rubber but they always love playing us. Burnley could still be in relegation battle and that's a tough away game. Brighton away as well could be revenge game for FA Cup but we should beat them. Our run is basicslly fucked. We ain't winning 14 straight. That would be the 2nd longest winning streak in PL history

Let's just hope Hazard and Chelsea do us a solid.

That’s the spirit!

We win our home games!
United are shite
Palace are safe
Burnley are safe
Brighton are shite and safe.

 

[city saint]

MNF.

Spit the Carragher Dog had Liverpool winning the title by 1pt.
Neville had City winning the title by 1 point.
Neville thought City would lose at Palace, while each club either won or drew their remaining games.

they are guessing just like me and you in reality they havnt got a clue

 

[sam 1980]

Watching Hazard tonight I think he could destroy Liverpool's vastly overrated defence by himself

I was more concerned how west ham got at Chelsea in the 2nd half

Oh and Van Dijk's slipped and Hazard is in here...

Liverpool vs Chelsea has always been a perennial 1-1. They loath each other so much that its been ages since one side beat another in the league. Totally expecting them to drop points in this. Also Liverpool's CL league grind might make them quite jaded and rusty.

While I agree that Wolves don't have as much a chance as Chelsea to take points off the Dippers, Wolves will absolutely have something to play for in that game. Assuming it isn't decided by then, seventh place in the league will qualify for next year's Europa League so long as we win the FA Cup.

Did we not win 18 or 20 or around that last season. Your right it won't be easy but it can be done Agree that beating Chelsea will be a big boost for the dippers and after that only see them maybe drawing one max but who knows. After the disaster that was December we are lucky to be still in with an excellent chance.

Nah, can see them sending a weakened squad over for that one and backing themselves to turn it around at the bridge if it goes wrong.

Bleedin hope so mate.

We've just won 14 straight games.

Sshhh don't go talking sense
The fun starts now and i'm really excited/nervous/worried we don't win the league and the dippers do
Let's 'ave it

 

[Chippy_boy]

I know you get unexpected results, but the luck (/cheating) those jammy ****s have had over the past few months makes me really struggle to see where they will drop points now.

Chelsea H
Cardiff A
Huddersfield H
Newcastle A
Wolves H

I seriously think we need to win every single game to retain the title. Although them fucking up on the last day at home at Anfield, just needing to beat Wolves to win the title, and FAILING, would be monumentally delicious to see, if it came to that.

The players know they have to win 6 games and i think they will,we are in a remarkable position after losing 3 games that we should have won and been 9pts better off,i can't see them not making it count

At the very least

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

That last second goal against Spurs could be a killer.

I agree with Pep, if we drop any points, that will be it.
