    He will retire with us don't worry. I think one more season as a impact sub and that will be it.

    Would most likely have to finish 6th, Sunderland made it to the league cup final and City should finish on the top four

    The League Cup doesn't work like the FA Cup. The League Cup runners-up don't get the European place if the winners already have a European place.

    So unless Sunderland somehow beat City, 6th place will be a Europa League spot. And so will 7th place, if both FA Cup finalists finish in the top six.

    Especially if what you said about his back is really that bad.

    Seems to be a good weekend for those English players trying to stake a claim to a seat on the plane to Brazil.

    Arsenal lucky. They really aren't as good as their league position suggests.

    Titles often won by those who win when not at their best. ManU didn't deserve it last year either, but other teams performed worse.

    Ox and Arteta both look injured.

    Today. On most days they've looked well worth it.

    I want Arsenal to win the league as they've been top for most of the season and it shows that you don't need to spend loads to be successful. On the other hand, Man City are menacing and deserve to be Champions, and I hope that Pellegrini doesn't get sacked if they don't win the league. Arsenal must hate being third favourites at best for the title this season even though they've, at times, been comfortably ahead of Chelsea and Man City.

    City for me can't stand Wenger or Mourinho.

    That would be great, but failing that I'd love them to get beat at ours, meaning they fail in the quest for Champions league football :)

    Man City are the best side in the league for me. They are unstoppable when they play at their best.

    They'll win tomorrow, six points clear of Chelsea, and a comfortable journey to the title.
