City game in hand

City not dropping anymore points


Best result at Anfield in ages
Lucky to get that draw with the penalty miss

Normally a draw at anfield and youd say great result. But the bar has been raised the last few years and any dropped points almost feel like a disaster at this stage of the season because city can very easily ratlle off win after win as weve seen time and time again.

We drew 2 games in the run in last season 1 at the etihad and the other at home to spurs. Again in years gone past a draw at home to spurs maybe not the worst but that night it was a real kick in the stones. You just knew then them 2 points dropped would be the points that cost us and ultimately that proved to be the case.

Think city are slight favourites after today. You have to hope the champions league distracts them somewhat.

Huge ask for a team inexperienced in title challenges to get a result at the etihad at this stage of the season. Still I hope yous do it.

The hostility of the atmosphere was a big test for our young players and the experience will stand us in good stead for the City game. I would have taken a draw before the match

City will drop some points somewhere, every time they’ve won a couple in a row this season or had a big win people have said the same thing.

Theyve won their last 5 in the league and 8 in all competitions. So thats not quite the case.

You're done.

We need 20 points from our last 8 games (6 wins and 2 draws)It won't be easy but it's certainly achievable.

My prediction few weeks have been, win by 2 points and still looks possible the way things are going. Win against Pool would have given us some riggle room even if we lose against the City. Now we must get at least a point against City, which will be difficult...

20 is fine. That gives us 93 points. Man City would end up with 92 points if they draw against us and win every other game.

City's title now?

Why? Are they suddenly top?

Defeatist, and far, far too early to be conceding anything to City. Long way to go and many variables involved.
