I said before the game if spurs got something then it would be arsenals title. I dont think city can afford any more slip ups.
seasons only half way through.
City have barely got going
Anything can still happen.
Arsenal will become "self aware" at some point and the pressure to win will be immense. That is the big question for most observers, coping with the pressure. City have done that before, multiple times so we know they can do it. Arsenal blew a 4 point lead over Spurs with 4 games to go last season, which was just pressure.
If Arsenal hold off a charging City then they will have truly deserved it, no greater test.
My inkling is that city will be in CL, akso late in the fa cup, could get an injury to haaland etc. They are already 8 points ahead if they win their GIH.
Will be interesting but City can't afford to slip up
50 points at the half way stage is pretty mad. The wheels will have to really come off for them not to win it now. It’s not as if we’re breathing down their necks either, we are not playing our best football at all at the moment. Have to say I think they look very good for it, the timings have worked out well with us and Liverpool both dropping off this season.
It's way too early to tell I think.
Our form has been crazy good but our squad is much smaller in terms of quality than can come in if we start to pick up injuries.
That being said, if we get to game 24/25 and in a similar position, I think we'd probably have enough to win it bearing in mind Pep must be desperate for the CL

City have dropped off, we’ve completed imploded
It's not the gap. There are loads of games left. It's the fact that we still look much more likely to drop points than Arsenal do. We also have the CL to focus on which they don't.
Think it’s likely done too. Arsenal have been excellent, they’ve got the best balance this year.

Well that’s it really. When you look at who is most likely to drop points inbetween now and our first league match against them, you have to say us. The amount of points we’ve thrown away after taking the league is mental this season.

They've been the most consistent team, whilst playing the best football. I don't think they have actually played poorly in one league.
I won't begrudge them the Title if they kick on to win it.
