City weren't even in that good in last year's run-in, we just bottled it ridiculously. They've only been properly great under Mancini in the three months between August and November 2011. They're not a great side, nowhere near. Winning every match in the run-in? feck, it was more likely that QPR would stay up.It's almost as if people haven't noticed how bad City have been this year and are stuck in April/May 2012.
It's never the wrong thread for his Dudeness.Wrong thread
They did win their last 6 which is essentially what mattered. Last year you knew they had that solidity and the players had the balls to go down the pitch and score.City weren't even in that good in last year's run-in, we just bottled it ridiculously.

Actually City being so shit this year was the main reason that convinced me we wouldn't lose the title in the last minutes like last year.It's almost as if people haven't noticed how bad City have been this year and are stuck in April/May 2012.
They've been putting in 1 championship-form display a month all season, if that. Last year needs writing off, it was never going to happen. They've lacked balls and character for the most-part of 2013 and today was the icing on the cake.
I was messingSorry got caught up in the Euphoria of Spurs comeback over city.
It's a shame Andre Santos isn't around.Would be hilarious to see the Arse players giving RvP the guard of honour
Piers bellend is convinced it was about money even though RvP turned down city :deluded:Van Pursestring
Yeah, he's going to win the trophy that he never could during eight years at Arsenal in his first United season. Obviously the move was all about the money.
Has it still not registered in Piers Morgan's head that Van Persie was offered more money by City, but he turned that down because he wanted to move to us?
And that remains the last time we lost three consecutive games if I'm not mistaken.When we won it with 3 games to spare in 00/01 we lost all our remaining games. Not to put a dampener on it, but I hope that doesn't happen again.

Gary Pallister scoring that free kick right at the end!Tomorrow night will be like May 1993 against Blackburn.
Arsenal fans would say that Fabregas went back to his boyhood club, while Van Persie went to one of Arsenal's rivals.Piers is hideously unbearable on Twitter.
Don't quite understand what makes him a traitor though. He's one of the best strikers in Europe, and Arsenal haven't looked like challenging for some time. Joining a club that is likely to push for trophies whilst he is at the peak of his career doesn't really make him a traitor. He didn't exactly wait out his contract so he could leave for free. Arsenal got £25million for a 29 year old. That's pretty fine business from their perspective.
How is RvP the traitor, yet Fabregas is still fan favourite? Both left for better clubs, for success.
Was not a patch on GiggsysGary Pallister scoring that free kick right at the end!
Party pooper!Strange but feels like something is missing and the title is not enough. Still hard to accept how we got kicked out in the FA Cup and CL
This is going to look so embarrassing when we lose all our remaining games and City win the league!
Not for me. The title was always the number one priority after last seasons events.Strange but feels like something is missing and the title is not enough. Still hard to accept how we got kicked out in the FA Cup and CL
It's probably because of a manner in which we'll have won it, there has hardly been any excitement in the league because we ran away in February/March and ever since City lost to Southampton it's been clear that there is no way back for them in this race. If this was a last day victory you wouldn't be getting this feeling at all.Strange but feels like something is missing and the title is not enough. Still hard to accept how we got kicked out in the FA Cup and CL
