Title Run In

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Thought i was the only one who saw this. Their is something in the water when it comes to over rating City.

I have seen people claim they will win the quad, some even suggesting they could turn out to be the best off all time, i have never seen a team have so much hype for so little.

Dont get me wrong they are a top team that will be up there this season and beyond, but quad? best team in the world? best team ever? not even close.

Also Pellegrini is known for the occasional blunder.

The supposed quadruple winners in waiting have lost their 3 biggest home games off the season and not only that, they got outplayed in all of them.

Reminds me of Arsenal!

definitely overhyped but they are currently the best team in England. They are scoring at the rate the 2009-10 Chelsea team did. and even though chelsea beat them twice, they do have better players going forward. Silva, Nasri, Yaya, Aguero, Negredo and all of them more or less in their prime.

As you said, this Man City team is good, but the way some try to describe them as the best in the world is absurd. Still comfortably behind Real, Barca and Bayern and only a shade better than us as their main players are all in their prime. Overhyped.

Except for last season manutd 2013 and hernandez first season united 2011, All past epl winners in the last 10 years including arsenal invincibles are better than mancity and will beat them to the title.

All this talk like they've reached barcelona/bayern status with no weakness is petty talk. They need glory before we can acknowledge them.

looooooooooool. No way they are even close to Barca or Bayern. For anyone to think that they are is pretty dilusional. So what they are competing for the EPL title. I have been watching the premiere league since 1995 and as far as I know there are always 3 or 4 teams competing for it. Doesn't make them a great team. The FA cup is not even in the bag for them. They are out of the champions league as far as I believe and most people would agree. They don't even have a unique system that makes them exceptional!! Not only do they need glory, they need to be consitent in their titles and defeating big teams from all over the world. CIty is way overrated.

I agree. This is exactly why I don't think we'll win the tittle. Our chances of beating City at the Ettihad are very slim, imo.

Now how do you feel about the title?

Now how do you feel about the title?

Probably something like 50% City, 40% us and 10% Arsenal. I think our chances went up A LOT when we beat City at the Ettihad. We basically gained 6 points on them.

I think the title will come down to which team can stay healthy. Right now it appears every team has been bitten with the injury bug and that seems to be the difference in most fixtures. March will obviously go a long way in deciding who takes it but more than that, I believe it will be health.

Would like to see where we are after we play our next 5 league games including 3 big ones at the Bridge - Everton, Fulham, Tottenham, Villa and Arsenal...

If we are in front after those 5 games I can't see a Jose team losing the title with 7 games to play. Just my opinion

exactly where we stand now :ph34r2:

And points extended at the top.

Should also point that after we play our next 5 league games, Arsenal and Liverpool each will have a game in hand on us (Arsenal due to involvement in FA Cup, while one of Liverpool's upcoming opponents, Sunderland, are still in the competition as well) while City will have played 2 less than us then (because of their cup final and FA Cup involvement).

hopefully this video sums the title race up at the end of the season

Let's be honest, if Terry or Hazard get injured for 1month or so+, we're gone.

I see this as a good thing tbh, always preferred points in the bank rather than games in hand. Also it puts a lot more pressure on the team having to make up the games, similar to what we went through last season with our ridiculous 70+ games.

I'm hoping City lose confidence from being knocked out of the CL and drop some points in the league.
