We also have poor records away to Chelsea, City and the 12 men of Klanfield, so a good time to put those records right.
I expect a backlash from a wounded City next weekend. Should be a comfortable home win.
We usually get tanked at City so I'd take a draw up there
As you said on the other thread Sandy, all games towards the end will be tough. The teams at the bottom will do their best to get points, even if that means parking the bus against the better teams.
We just have to hope we can drop far fewer points than the others.

Only since City got the money. Spurs had owned them pretty well for the previous 20 years, and won home and away on a regular basis. Time to beat them again on their home patch. I fancy Spurs quite strongly.

What like Liverpool beating Sunderland.
Liverpool will be tough, looking over their shoulders. After the ar5e result they are as close to relegation as they are champions league
The city game will shape our season. Lose that and i think we lose any hope of the title - especially if Leicester beat Arsenal.
But for me top 4 would be a great achievement. Top 3 even better as we avoid qualifers.
I've given up going through the fixtures and seeing "easy" ones against teams in the bottom half. EVERY game is there to be won and there are no easy games on paper, teams always lose points in unexpected games.
Spurs had a superb record against City before they won the lottery and became a new club. I think Everton could do us a few favours as we've played them twice and I can see them putting a serious run together.

Spurs just need to keep playing their dominating high intensity football, and the results will come, Man City have a lot of ageing players, and I doubt they will keep up with a resurgent Spurs.
Last game of the season could be interesting. Leicester are away at Chels. Can just see the chä v$ bending over rather than letting Spurs have the title, if we're in the running that is.
Man U are 7 points behind us in 5th. Our first priority is to stay ahead of them and finish in the top four.
If we finish higher than 4th then its a huge bonus, yes we can win the title but first things first.
Don't cry, I said the same thing yesterday and got berated by chronic for being negative. All along our aim is/was to finish top 4. We are in with a chance of the title and that's brilliant but I would still be very happy to just get a CL place. If we go on and continue to battle for the title then superb. But right now priority is to stay as far ahead of manu as possible leaving them with barely any chance to overtake us

Yes buddy, at the start of the season many of us predicted we would finish 5th/6th, we wanted to see better football and for us to tighten up in defence.
So far unless we have a huge drop in form for the last 13 games + then we have achieved this.
With Chelsea and Man U having poor seasons and City and Arsenal far from convincing there is a real opportunity to win the title and we are as good as any side in the top four.
Its baby steps at the moment and the old cliche of taking each game as it comes and try and win as many games as we can. Our primary achievable target at the moment is to retain our top four place ahead of United. Hopefully we can cement our top four position with a few games to go and then see what happens.
Some might see it as being negative but its all about making sure we get in the champions league. If we don't then it would be a disaster considering how well we have done.
I think Man City will still claim the title - somehow - I've just this feeling in my gut.
It's not appendicitis, I think...
..
One game at a time. Keep head down and work hard. Time to look up and see where we are at the end of the season.
Yes, Leicester may tank and we win the title.
Yes Citeeh may beat us and we're back look at fourth.
Yes, the Arsenholes could win it ahead of us.
There are no easy games in this league, none.
And we've lost Vertongehn and N'Jie.
So, .... one game at a time, lads. COYS
