TOP OF THE LEAGUE IN MAY WITH STILL A CHANCE OF THE TITLE

Rafa is the man and is a fantastic manager who will win us the league. Oh yeah david villa is playing superb for Valencia against Real and silva isn't too bad either. I'l have both of them next season.

I can't believe I'm letting myself hope again.

****ING COME ON MAN CITY.

Even a draw would blow it wide open again.

May be wildly optimistic but the next time we play it could be to wrap up the league!!! When was the last time we said that in May?

They say you have to lose one b4 you win one and i fear this is the losing year for us but this will stand us in great stead next year.

Equally, our next game could be meaningless if Manchester Untied win all theirs between now and then.

It's still hard to take that you can lose only two games, take 14 out of 18 pts from the other so called "top 4" teams and have the best goal difference yet still not win it. On a more positive note :

City (H)
Wigan (A)
Arsenal (H)

How many points did we take from these fixtures this year?

That is a very tough fixture list in anyones book. Hull away on the final day will also be tough. I think if we had beat Arsenal at home the pressure would really be on. As it stands I think they will go into those games relaxed, and when they play in that manner Man Utd are fantastic.

I could see Man Utd dropping points in all four remaining games, not sayin they will in everyone of them, but it would hardly be a massive shock if they did drop points in either of those games.

If City did win today pressure would be on then.

City (H)
Wigan (A)
Arsenal (H)

Three games in seven days, very tricky for them.

Realistically if we are to have any chance of the title, Man City need to pick something up today.

Man Utd aren't going to drop points in their last three games when all the pressure is off, they are playing in the comfort zone and they are total favourites for the title.

Horrible thought, that by the time we play again they could have already won it, no chance to apply any more pressure in the meantime, all we can do is watch...And Pray.

edit. And Hope.
