Souness is right though. We have to step up. Our last 2 matches were wins but we relied a lot on luck. We have to get back to our early season form. City are winning their matches with confidence.
This was our toughest match on paper but we don’t our last matches to get tougher and tougher.
That 2 on 1 was stacked against Spurs. They would need a 3 on 1 to perhaps register a shot on targetVVD ...
My first choice would be Fab, Gini, Keita
Our best run of form came when one of Keita or Shaq played as the 3rd midfielder.
We need to get one of these two in the team with Fabinho and Gini behind them.
Some of their goals may well have been lucky but their wins were mostly not last ditch and last minute goal to get these 3 points like us.Man City have basically won 4 of their last 6 games with "luck" like we got today.

Henderson 7 ball-winning actions in 77 mins
Milner 13 in 77'
Fabinho 7 in 13'
Says it all. Madness

So city have to play Utd and Spurs - neither of whom can afford to drop points. We have Chelsea still to play who are in the sale position.
City also have a tougher CL draw and the FA cup to worry about.
Today’s win was absolutely massive!
But if they win midweek and are top of table again...
in the end it's one step. a big one but our next 3 games are huge.
I am hoping we hockey Porto at home following a standard easy win v saints and can focus on Chelsea fully.
They will win midweek. The point I was trying to make was that by beating Spurs, we should have made it harder for City against them. All we can do now is win every game and hope that they drop points somewhere.
... unbelievable form even for me who wrote them off before Christmas. hopefully they can at least make city work for it.yes.
I think the ref and lino today made city's job a few percentage points harder v Cardiff. but then again same for us a couple weeks time.
for sure spurs are now in a dogfight for 3rd and 4th or 5th and 6th... unbelievable form even for me who wrote them off before Christmas. hopefully they can at least make city work for it.
