Re: Title still possible

Imagine if we went in to the final game level with Liverpool on points and with the same goal difference.
Don't know if I could hack the pressure of that

We would need some paramedics on duty that day! them v Newcastle us v West ham

Re: Title still possible

Norwich have to get something (3pts) to give Norwich fresh hope.

Fixed for you.

Re: Title still possible

Incredible to think how crucial the second goal against Sunderland could be. Lose that and pool could have afforded to lose the Chelsea game. I still think we will win it

Re: Will we win the Prem (continued)?

I don't think so. All of the three teams are within a whisker of winning it. Mourinho will be thinking beat
Liverpool and he is within touching distance of the title. I am not saying he wouldn't rather have the CL title - I am sure he would. But i can't see him giving up on the league when there's only 4 games to go and he's still right in it.

If Liverpool win tomorrow and go 5 points clear and Chelsea get a result in Madrid in the week then I think Jose will play a weakened side against Liverpool, it wont be a team that will get battered but it will be a team with the likes of Schwarzer in net, no Hazard and Oscar, Ba up front etc..

If Jose can get Chelsea to a final of the Champions League he will take that as a good season, in fact they have every chance of winning that trophy this season with Mourinho in charge.

I just don't see it that way mate. Mourinho has always favoured players with a great work ethic who will do whatever it takes - hence him getting rid of Mata. And his enormous ego will be thinking he can possibly still do the double. So he's going to throw his strongest team out for both games. He needs a win at Liverpool to keep his title hopes alive and I can't see him just throwing the Liverpool game. He could easily go out against Athletico and then be left with nothing. Playing your strongest team in both ties is like hedging your bets.

I can see you point mate.

Let's believe.

Re: Title still possible

Let's hope it turns out to be as crucial as the third goal we scored against them in the 2011-12 season when we came back from 3-1 down.

Kolarov free kick at the North/Family Stand end.

Re: Title still possible

The scousers have had an arrogance about them this week that will be their downfall against Norwich tomorrow, so I reckon a draw. They'll lose to Chelsea giving them a max of 84 points.

Chelsea win their remaining 3 = 84 points.

City win last 5 (of course) = 86 points, and champions. Even a draw at Goodison should see us win it on goal dif.

Re: Title still possible

Hopefully Norwich win tomorrow, could be tough since they're fighting for relegation.

If Chelsea play the way they did against us at home then they should win, hopefully Jose doesn't try something fancy due to CL.

That therefore means that if they get beat by Norwich and Chelsea they'll be on 83 points.

We win our remaining games and a draw vs Everton / Palace then we will be on 84 points!

If only we won against Sunderland life would've been easier!
