Match Day Thread Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

Personally, i don’t think we will win the league.

But we should at least be able to enjoy what’s currently happening and we should dare to dream.

What have we been saying: BELIEVE!

Is it always the best team that wins the league? We all know the answer. It is not as has been proven many times. it is more about dropping points against lower teams than being the very best. It is about being the most consistent.

Most people believe that City have the strongest team but who of the two has dropped most points against teams outside the top 6?

I disagree that the most important next fixture is against City. It is against the mancs next week. It is against a non rival for the title and top 4. We should get all the 3 points. But won’t be easy as they will fight tooth and nail for a draw.

believe you miserable ****s

tobes pj and diego will be loving this crap, of course they all support more than 1 team

I don't think we should get too carried away with this.
It's great that we're competing, but there's a long way to go. If we kick on and start getting 3 or 4 goals most games then I'll begin to believe.

Exactly.

I don't think it's a case of believing. I think it's a case of us knowing we can do better, as ridiculous as that's sounds.

If you want to win the title every game is crucial - 3 points from Utd is no more valuable than 3 from Fulham. If it turns out that it is between us and City then games against them obviously have an added significance in the bigger picture.
However, there's no point in thinking about that game now - let's take each game as it comes ( I'm sure I've heard that said somewhere before )

I didn't time it but it certainly seemed longer

They were 3-0 up by HT so I'm guessing the game was already in the bag.

Good on Raheem Sterling for calling out the racists.

I find it funny how the media are now trying to raise this as an issue yet are the ones who drive the agenda.

I know a lot of fans don’t like sterling but this kid is unfairly targeted and a lot of it is racially driven.

i don't know what happened, but i did find it strange there was a black bloke close to them that didn't batter an eye lid, now if there was anything unsavory said surely he would have reacted to this as well?

you would hope so any way.

When you’re the only one, and you’re surrounded by an angry mob, it can be difficult to speak up.

Don’t know mate - we’ll have to wait and see if it was a racist attack.

Strange that the banana thrown at aubamayang last week was pretty much swept under the carpet.

Losing to Chelsea is their blip. Man City will obliterate us once we have our blip.

No it's the natural conclusion of a defence that's built around John Stones

Every time a team attacks City they score, City just rely on them being too scared to attack or outscoring them
