No thanks. I like the slow and steady rebuild Ole is doing.Get a better manager and better players, what a revelation

The players are good enough. The book is still out on the manager but Ole is doing well enough to suggest he is the right one.Get a better manager and better players, what a revelation

Doing well, yes i guess he is, not sure he's showing me enough to convince me that we're ever going to win the league under him though, we'll likely hover around the 3-6 league positions mark under himThe players are good enough.

Oh noooo he didn't!He went there...
I got to world class and stopped..
No we won't. City need to lose 4 if we won every game and if we only win 13/15 would need to lose 6We will win the league if we win 13 out of our 15 remaining league games, including beating Man City.
Most likely won't happen but that is how we will win the league
Not if we beat them, we’ll be 7 points behind. That’s only three losses from them or two losses and a couple of draws.No we won't. City need to lose 4 if we won every game and if we only win 13/15 would need to lose 6
Your forgetting the game we beat them then we need them to lose 3 more and we win the lot so 4. If we only win 13/15 we would need them to lose 6Not if we beat them, we’ll be 7 points behind. That’s only three losses from them or two losses and a couple of draws.
still not 4 but not 6 either is it?
Ok I can’t look at it again, it’s late, I’ll take your word for itYour forgetting the game we beat them then we need them to lose 3 more and we win the lot so 4. If we only win 13/15 we would need them to lose 6
Imagine the melt down if we’d have bought Haaland with that release clause, As much as I despise that rat Woodward, he did the right thing.If we'd gotten Haaland last winter, I believe we'd only be 2-3 points off City right now. 18m pounds.
If Diallo were to then kick on as well, we were probably looking at a serious title challenge.
Also, we'd have finished slightly more strongly last season, and there's no telling who else we might have been able to attract in the summer based on those performances.
Well 3 wins and a draw I supposeOk I can’t look at it again, it’s late, I’ll take your word for it
Sub thread...A super star forward and we win the league that is all, probably a certain Mr Haaland...
No we won't. City need to lose 4 if we won every game and if we only win 13/15 would need to lose 6
Hell freezes over!Sub thread...
United could sign Haaland if?
Fixed it for you.4 of City's first XI sign for us.
In reality we need City to drop a minimum of 11 points with 13 games to go. Thats if we win every single game. 2 things I guarantee will happen. City wont lose 4 (or lose 3 and draw 1 to be exact) and we wont win every game, so that means City will need to lose around half their games left for us to have a realistic chance and as I have already said I cant see them losing 3-4 games thats another thing that wont happen, imo.This was when we had 15 games to play, now we have 13 and have dropped 2 vital points to WBA since. Had we won that and then followed that up by wins against Newcastle, Chelsea and the more importantly Man City we would only be 5 points behind City!
If we was to win majority of our remaining 11 games, I would be fairly confident we could topple City. Saying that, I felt City would drop some points in the buildup to the United game, they have had some tough fixtures vs Liverpool, Spurs, Everton and Arsenal. They got West Ham so hoping they do us a favour! But I don't see them dropping any points there either sadly. Had they dropped even just 2 points in one of those fixtures we would have only been 3 points behind (providing we kept on winning including beating City).
The dropped points vs WBA made me loose any sort of hope winning the title now because it just shows we cannot be trusted to do the job and be almost flawless till the end of the season. Miracles do happen but even if we win all our games at this point, the form of City makes me question even if we beat them would they drop enough points to help us win the title? Sadly I doubt it but who knows!
Nail on head.If Financial fair play was Actually taken seriously.

We got an evens chance of finishing 2nd and a fantastic chance of finishing top 4. That is realistically where we stand.
....and yet here we are sitting in 2nd place.Doing well, yes i guess he is, not sure he's showing me enough to convince me that we're ever going to win the league under him though, we'll likely hover around the 3-6 league positions mark under him
