They're not winning this season, the title is ours for the taking The thing with Manchester City is that they are perfectly capable of winning something like 15 of their next 16 games, being four points clear as April turns into May and having everybody forget that they had a bit of a wobble before Christmas. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't tune into a match of theirs on any planet. But photos of Grealish and Foden in a manly embrace were inescapable earlier on sports web earlier. Enjoyed on highlights seeing Palace come back, and also the Pep interview afterwards. Pure gold.

Which is exactly what will happen when their illegal squad depth comes into play at the point where all of us rule followers stuggle with injuries and fatigue. They will walk the league in the end again. Cheats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I saw the goal but not the analysis, Grealish looks well offside 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many people revelled in arsenal's "bottle job" last year that they didn't see what man city actually did and how much of an advantage they have over just about everyone 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah usually, but I think they're off it and I'll make the bold prediction now that they don't win it, they won't be within 5 points of the winner....

It's again pure arrogance. This guy's not even as good as Bazunu. He clearly needed a year or three of playing regularly at Championship level before he became a regular; I guess he'll get it next season anyway. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see anyone else winning the league for the next decade of I'm honest. They have too much of an illegal advantage and are allowed to carry on doing it.

They will step up. They always do. Not like there's a runaway leader at the moment. All the teams at the top hsve their flaws including us.

maqroll Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 I think Brighton can pull off an upset vs Arsenal. 1-1. I have no such thoughts that Manchester United can get anything other than zero points vs Liverpool. 5-0 to Klopp's Plop. Ten Hag is doomed.

villa4europe Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 (edited) Built themselves to yo-yo Whether or not the players, fans, owners all realise that is another thing... Not sure if it is arrogance to be fair to them, they can look at forest and say alright you stayed up but you've set yourselves up in a way that will give you deadwood stopping your progress, will Burnley be ahead of forest in 5 years? If they don't hit a panic button there's every danger they will be imo Edited December 17, 2023 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero command of his area. Also no way is he 6ft 6 which is what he's listed as. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All on Kompany who thinks he is some managerial guru that could turn this kid into Neuer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted December 17, 2023 Moderator Share Posted December 17, 2023 I know it never works out that way - but on the way things have gone so far, someone could survive relegation on 25 points. The bottom three are extraordinary poor this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
