    I obviously read annoyance for worried. So you are not worried then ? . How is Arteta and Flamini going to play together when Flamini has to miss 3/4 games ?

    mmm we drew AWAY to a fantastic display by southampton .

    You drew AT HOME to relegation zone west ham .

    and WE will battle for 3rd ?

    It far to close for ANYONE , including city , to say .

    Any one of us can still fall , or win .

    For spuds to be where they are even is truly remarkable given how sh1t they are .

    Blessing in disguise. Forces Wenger to not play our weakest CM pairing that don't work well together.

    After last night's matches not really annoyed either now at all. City are going to walk the league anyway. Will anyone take points off them the rest of the season? Not many that's for sure.

    And Arsenal and Chelsea can drop points anywhere. So those two will battle for second. So as you were.

    I can see Chelsea getting 2nd and Arsenal getting 3rd, but that is subject to Chelsea not picking up injuries.

    Arsenal have a much tougher run in than Chelsea, with a very tough CL tie sandwiched between.

    What's certain is City will finish 1st. 2nd is in Arsenal's hands but it depends on their ability to cope with a relentless fixture schedule which I don't think they will. The level of concentration you have to have for one or two games back-to-back is unreal, I can't imagine how tough it would be having 6 or 7 on the trot.

    Arsenal and Chelsea have both bottled big opportunities at different points in the season. November was a crucial month and allowed City to take control.

    The only team you've got out the way that we don't is United. Anyway it's irrelevant. Last round of games proved that fixtures don't have to be 'tough' for either of us to drop points.

    You lot certainly aren't. City favourites. No fernan and aguero tonight.

    Next season if we get a decent striker or two, you can forget the title

    Arsenal bottlers. Liverpool might catch them for 3rd spot.

    I might concede after a fortnight if things don't improve for moanu and you don't implode <laugh>

    like I always maintained - Title is ours to lose!

    City are close competitors for title and not sure shot for title by any means.
    Just like you aren't competitors for title but sure shot for 4th place trophy (might be 3rd place trophy this time).

    With our team (strikers esp) and their team (strikers esp) we are both at 53 pts!
    This is what I was telling from the beginning.

    What exactly has Manny done to warrant the faith his team is getting?

    TBH - Manny is no different than Sir Dave to me!!

    Well I'm thoroughly enjoying what is currently going on at Anfield.

    Can't believe how brilliant Liverpool were in that first 20 minutes, absolutely rampant.

    scary?? more like clinical pool and gutless goons.

    We outplaying City at Etihad - That is SCARY without being clinical!

    Pool's defence was rarely tested by the goons.
    Can't remember Ozil, Ox, Santi make any tackles and track back either!

    Even with our strikers we would give more trouble to pools defence.
    Jose & Co would most likely take care of pool with little trouble.

    Arsenal's expected collapse well and truly under way. Two horse race by March IMO.

    Couldn't have gone any better today for us really.

    Nice to see Arsene Wenger blow 40m on a player who goes missing in big games.

    It's no longer 'might', they will catch them.
