no such things as easy fixtures!

We need to smash a few teams to get the goal difference back.

Points are always dropped when least expected. Over the coming weeks I expect at various stages to hear how we have thrown it away, and then City have thrown it away. I wasn't convinced that we would hang on in there, but Fergie has worked wonders once again, and it really is 50-50.

Fergie wont let them be complacent, but I think the team will think they can win it now.

We've lost some silly games this season. No more mistakes now please! Because City haven't been slipping up at all.

I would not be surprised if we win all our games up to the CIty game except perhaps unexpected home draws to Fulham and maybe Everton !!
You have to see us getting 9 pts from Wolves,Blackburn,Wigan.....
Normally we beat Villa at home (parked bus!)...
WBA and Fulham both very much in form and Everton could be awkward.

==========================
great point fella, every game from now on in is a make or break game and just because we have got through what many quite rightly thought was our toughest set of games without losing doesn't mean things are going to get easier.keep the focus

Good article, 5 's I think some people were getting ahead of themselves. At this stage of the season there is no easy games, teams at the bottom of the table will fighting to avoid relegation while teams near the top will be fighting for European places.

Let's go back to that Blackburn game OP.

We were without Rooney, Vidic, Ferdinand, Smalling, Young, Cleverley, Giggs, Fletcher and Fabio. Those absentees, plus playing players out of position is what cost us that day. It had nothing to do with complacency. The team that we had out that day, just wasn't good enough and Blackburn unfortunately were better than us on the day and they deserved to win.

I do fully agree with you that we shouldn't get complacent ahead of these next 8 games because we could drop points in any, however with the way that this team is grinding out results without playing well and with the players we have that aren't injured at the moment, you would fancy us to win every single one of them, even those games at grounds like Molineux and Ewood Park where we've struggled in recent seasons.

I'm putting a lot of our supporters' new found confidence regarding the title down to the fact that we've just negotiated a very difficult period of fixtures where we've played Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal and Norwich away and Liverpool at home and we've came out with 13 points from a possible 15 which is a magnificent achievement. People are just incredibly pleased that we're still just 2 points behind City after those fixtures and are pleased that for the first time really this season, we have the perfect opportunity to put a great deal of pressure on City.

I think Fergie and the players know exactly what is expected of them from now on in to the end of the season and the potential pit falls that taking games for granted can cause. If we do slip up it wont be because of complacency. Been there and done it several times....

....but City haven't.

I think the europa cup games will be vital to get the likes of ando game time and back in some sort of shape for prem matches

Its all good having players back from injury but it takes time to get back into the swing of things and any mistakes that happen could cost us and the player gets vitriol from the fans
