If only you beat Villa a few weeks back

Not sure how much I could take the game even getting to half time and still being 0-0 in the West Ham game. The team just needs to get the job done early against Everton. If City give us any sort of hope then that could make is edgy if we are level or even only 1-0 up.

It's been a season of progression and we despite "rivals" seemingly laughing at the fact we may end up with as many trophies as them, the reality is they are concerned that we are a major player now. There's no talk like there was last season that it was our best chance and we will be back trying to scrape into the top 4 again.

City would have still found a way to catch us

115 ways.

If after the City game, someone said we will win 8 of the 9 games leading up to the Everton game, I'd have absolutely taken that given the run in we had. I don't expect many had us finishing first after that game and I suspect more people had us finishing third.

Now it’s more about if not now then when?

Your only chance of the title is Pep leaving

89 by far the greatest finish to an English top flight campaign.

Not sure, I still think Aguerooooooooooooooooooo was better. That game had everything including Barton being a complete schitt, City coming back from the dead and Stoke got relegated with Kevin Davies up front

So to clarify, Man City winning late against cannon fodder was better than the two best teams in the country battling it out with one needing to win 2-0 and doing so in injury time? Throw in the backdrop of Hillsborough being a month earlier.

Agreed, even though my team were on the wrong emd of it you'll never top that for a seaon finale. 1st v 2nd on the final day for the title. Id be surprised if you ever see that again. When was the last time 2 teams who might even be considered as title challengers played each other on the last day.

Yeah., Guaranteed safe QPR literally giving the ball to City and letting them score was soooo much better than the top two going head to head and it being decided in injury time.
Barton literally got himself sent off on purpose to help his former club.

Yeah, 89 was far better than 2012.

Think it was also the last time a team in 2nd place on the last day has actually finished up winning the league.

Not when its the wrong one

I'm not old enough to remember the 89 season but it's not hard to understand that was far more amazing than the Aguero moment, as exciting as that was to witness at the time.

In 1989 it was in our hands, we knew what we had to do and we did it, and all the other match results were totally irrelevant. This time it's not.

There were no other matches.

So why would they wait until minute 93, conspiracy theorist? 🤔
