Brighton didn't have the deckchairs out at the Emirates yesterday. They really played well yesterday when the pressure was lifted. Why would Brighton fancy a result less than Wolves? Both teams can't change their position.
Because Brighton, generally, aren’t as good as Wolves.
 
Fair enough, I didn’t see anything of the Arsenal game yesterday. But then Arsenal are pretty **** too...
Oh don't get me wrong, I full expect City to beat Brighton. I just don't think it will be as one sided as people think. City have not been great recently. They've scraped over the line in their last 3 matches.

If City do win the title on Sunday, fair play but they will have to rebuild as they are an aging team in some áreas, while Liverpool have yet to peak. And we know the players they want are exactly the guys that Barca, Real, Bayern, PSG, Juve want. So if you are a top player (one of Ajax´s young guns for example, ) who would you choose from that list?

A lot of players would favour City over PSG even Bayern and Juve. Its the pull of the PL. Some might favor the PL over La Liga.
 
I have found the to and froing between City and Liverpool more interesting than the average title race....especially now we are safe and I can care at all about who wins. City hold the advantage going into the last weekend....but you never know. And I'd be perfectly happy if Liverpool won...there I've said it. :)

Hmm... anyonebutLiverpool? :emoticon-0102-bigsm

With this kind of emotion, we are likely to suffer Huddersfield winning at St Mary´s on the final day to take the gloss off things. There are some people and things worth hating. Rival football teams is not one of them. Not even that lot from Old Trafford. Or have I got this wrong, and we get a kick out of Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool losing no matter who they play? And when City have won a few more trophies and every other child is wearing a CIty shirt, we can add them to our list.

All the so-called Big Six are individually or collectively on most Saints fans’ lists already for one reason or another, plus Everton for historical reasons. I think a lot of us prefer City to Liverpool because of the recent plundering of our squad, but City are no angels either. Like our friends from East London they were essentially handed a free stadium, albeit they have spent a lot of their own money on it since. Their manipulation of the FFP rules is a bit questionable too, to say the least.

On both City’s and Liverpool’s plus side is that they have served up some scintillating football this season, along with the best title race in years, so I will be happy whichever of them wins the title, as long as it isn’t Liverpool.

Not just the plundering, how your players left for then too. Lallana, lovren and vvd all left in ways that were disrespectful. Why any of your fanbase wants them to lift any trophy baffles me lol
