Agreed, looks like they have finally found a decent replacement for Kompany and Stones plays better alongside a good defender.

City's next 5 league games will likely bring 15 points for them.

Palace (H) Villa (H) West Brom (A) Sheffield United (H) Burnley (A)
Nailed on. And I keep getting called a WUM. City will be so far ahead of all of us by the end of these 5 games the season will be practically over.

Just like WBA at home, Fulham and Newcastle away was nailed on 9 points for you in December.

Not at all at most even if we won them all we'd have maybe a 4-5 point lead. On the back of that we have a month from hell with you guys, Spurs, Arsenal and United in the following 5 games. Now if we have a 5 point lead after the derby I'd say fair enough. But unless both yourselves and United intend to drop 12-14 of the next 15 points, the title race is only getting started.

It was only a few game days ago they drew v West Brom and scrapped past Southsmpton and now we have that tonight.
I have no idea where this talk of the City of old being back has come from. It looks as if theyre riding the Foden good form wave that is covering a lot of their attacking flaws.
If they dont keep up this defensive record for the rest of the season I can see them struggling for top 4 with how tight the league is
Yeah just maybe that scrappy second half will give some hope to the teams City are facing in the next few weeks, frustrating that Brighton hadn't the quality to punish them for missing that injury time penalty though. I presume that Welbeck is injured again as didn't see him in the squad tonight at all

I thought Fulham were going to focus on Chelsea and give Spurs an easy ride after that scheduling debacle, but they're playing quite well.

Can someone at least try to man-mark Son? We all know he’s brilliant.

Jesus, 6 teams from 1st to 6th separated by four points.
