We have had by far the hardest opening 10 fixtures of any of the teams that can win the title.
Everton, Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea ALL AWAY.
Spurs at home and Arsenal at home this coming saturday which is match number 10.
To have 21 points at this stage and be ahead of City is crazy, especially when you compare their first 9 fixtures to ours. And being only 1 point behind Chelsea isn't too bad either as they have had an easier start than us too.
Keep it up reds! We want our trophy back !!!
21/27 points = Fantastic return

re Pep, you just wonder if City's last two appointments at board/managerial level, both ex Barca, is part of a plan to get Pep and maybe one or two Barca players too.

Siempre, great point. I hope not. He'd take them to another level. A level Mancini can't get them to with the talent they have.
Who will be available though, if that is true? Fergie never speds big in Jan. And lots of the top players won't leave while playing in Europe.
We should have signed Granero. Looks great for QPR, he's just surrounded by dross.

I like Pep and think he'll be our next manager but like Siempre said, City are lurking.
Another choice if Pep takes over elsewhere would be Wenger.
Imagine if he took over? We'd play great stuff and pisss off Arsenal fans even more

That would be incredible. Wenger would never do that to them sadly. Plus, the bottle effect might rub off on us and we' end up potless each year.
Mourinho is another option I'd love to see. Could see a Pep vs Jose round 2 but in the Prem.
You also have to add Chelsea into the mix for any successor we target as I just cannot see Di Matteo keeping his job for the foreseeable future.

what about Arry

What about King Kenny?

Arry and Queen Kenny would never say yes. The job is too high profile for them and they need to work for a big club before joining us
