Amazing what you can do by winning a shitload of gamesClawed back an 11 point gap with Arsenal in less than two months.

And to think by next week we could very well get into the top 4, Santa Claus must be real..They should be.
It seemed it wasn't even remotely possible that we would catch them after the Liverpool game and now it down to 2 points.
Yeah, 5-0 against the bottom of the barrel, but top4 teams shouldn't lose 4-0.Teams in meltdown don't win 5-0
Not just us tbf, you’ve caught up on Chelsea as well..Clawed back an 11 point gap with Arsenal in less than two months.
Arsenal and Chelsea will need the same...Actually I took a better look of previous seasons and it is not looking that good .
It seems we will need 75 points or more , which is 9 wins and some draws from next 13 games .
We just need to get more points than Chelsea and Arsenal irrespective of last seasons and we're currently ahead of Arsenal and 2 points below Chelsea. That what matters.Actually I took a better look of previous seasons and it is not looking that good .

Arsenal will lose at Leicester and Wolves let alone the big boys.Great month ahead, with some though games ahead for Chelsea and United. It's probably gonna be decisive.
Yeah feck them. Annoying bottlers that didn't quite bottle it this time.I blame fecking Spurs for this hellish race to secure the 4th spot.
Oi give them a chance, the hard part's only just arrived. Beating Leicester won't be easy, Dortmund will probably ruin their confidence, then you've got Burnley away which they should win but it'll be hard enough without Kane, after which you've got Chelsea and Arsenal. This is where it gets interesting.Yeah feck them. Annoying bottlers that didn't quite bottle it this time.
Really? You can't beat the feeling of a huge European night against the Elite teams.Have to say not a big fan of qualifying for the CL just to make up the numbers and mainly for the "money men", when got almost no chance of winning it. Would rather be in the Europa and get to a final / ideally win it.
Outrageously challenging run of fixtures coming up for us, it's either going to make or break our season.
PL: City (a)
EL: Malmo (a)
FA: United (h)
EL: Malmo (h)
LC: City (final)
PL: Spurs (h)
All within an 18 day window..
That time of year it seems, we got a tough schedule as well although over a slightly longer time frame.Outrageously challenging run of fixtures coming up for us, it's either going to make or break our season.

Don't get me wrong, of course I want them to do it since it goes in our favor. But they are annoying in snicking wins for a couple of years now, which of course testifies that they are a very solid team nonetheless.Oi give them a chance, the hard part's only just arrived.

At least you guys have some team named Malmo sandwiched between your other big games, We have PSG instead followed by games against you guys and Liverpool.Outrageously challenging run of fixtures coming up for us, it's either going to make or break our season.

I don't think it's that bad. If you can beat Malmo away, you won't have to play your absolute best first team in the return leg. I also think both Chelsea and United will make a few changes in the FA Cup tie.Outrageously challenging run of fixtures coming up for us, it's either going to make or break our season.

Its a lot of pressure and some really strong teams. Worst case scenario, within 18 days of it starting we could be out of all 3 cups and out of the top 4 too. Obviously if we can pull it off, then it could be a fecking amazing couple of weeks, but we're so inconsistent recently, that I'm not exactly that hopefully.

It's embarrassing how low we were allowed to sink yet again under the poisonous one, had he been rightly sacked after Sevilla, we could have mounted a challenge without a doubt. We need to start behaving like a big club and cut out the fecking around when we're getting dragged through the mud.I remember when these top 4 race threads were effectively just an “Arsenal or Spurs?” thread.
It’s embarrasing that we are constantly linked to this now.
We’re Manchester United ffs. Just get the 4th spot easily as piss and then next season let’s title challenge for once!
While there was a lot wrong about the Seville game it wasn't worthy of sacking a manager over. Can you imagine the public backlash for sacking a manager because of a UCL exit? Not least one they gave a new contract to a month or so before said exit. Whether we like it or not, whether we saw the writing on the wall or not, the club had to give Mourinho the start of this season.It's embarrassing how low we were allowed to sink yet again under the poisonous one, had he been rightly sacked after Sevilla, we could have mounted a challenge without a doubt.

Probably. Who knows. Maybe we can get lucky again and win some away games.Arsenal will lose at Leicester and Wolves let alone the big boys.
Chelsea worry me think they can creep over the line.
Arse will finish 6th.
Give us top 4 and win yourself a Europa League. Piss easy.Its a lot of pressure and some really strong teams.

City are playing in the league cup final soon.Why City will play Everton at Wednesday? And when they will play against Chelsea?
"Italian Welbeck" (even though he is Spanish) scored a hattrick against Stoke last season Scoring a brace against one of the worst teams in PL history is not anything special.I said this before and I stick by it. Chelsea needed to replace the donkey and they'll make top 4. Fat man scored a brace that the Italian Welbeck would never score, a striker that actually has cojones and isn't a baby.
You definitely didn't follow the Morata transfer thread"Italian Welbeck" (even though he is Spanish) scored a hattrick against Stoke last season Scoring a brace against one of the worst teams in PL history is not anything special.
Yeah, I would be confident of a Top 4 place if they still had Morata/Giroud to pick from. Higuain knows how to score goals, he'll dispatch the easier sides.I said this before and I stick by it.
