    Except we keep a clean sheet which I doubt. Only winning by one goal margin chance.

    Never happening. It'll have to be a hammering or a dogfight.

    It's at thier yard. It's not going to be easy

    I would normally agree but by the time they play us they will have a lot of players back who have rested all season
    They could be playing to avoid relegation but more realistically it’s that they genuinely were not poor when they get their players back
    Not invincible but will be a tough tough game
    Plus - it’s another team that hates us - even though they may hate Arsenal more there will be so much pressure on them to perform at that point
    Not saying you are wrong but there are definitely ways it could be wrong

    If Haarland plays will lose as he and Mamoush will will put away chances. If he doesn't and Stones is missing we stand a chance. You may mock me but 65+ years experience of football tells me this is the case.....admittedly a lot of that experience was Subbuteo and blow football but it all counts in my book.

    Anything less than 113pts is failure

    City have lost seven games already; and certainly out of the title race.Their main objective now is to be in the top four.We are in for a fight.

    Different team after the January window, could have done with playing them a few weeks ago.

    How different are they? Madrid tonked them without breaking a sweat.

    There backline is suspect, if we can get at them we have a very good chance, if we roll off the bus looking like we could do with a few hours in bed after a heavy Saturday night it will be a long game.

    The cm gonzalez has improved them. But anyone who can run in that midfield will help.

    The cb khusanov isn't great. A lot to learn at this level.

    Obviously marmoush has attracted all the headlines with a hat trick v Newcastle.

    Savio is so so, hot and cold.

    Imo thwy are better as the old legs are off the park largely but they are not the city of old.

    If they don't have haaland then we will see but thry are still very dangerous

    They're still top 4 (for now, at least) so obviously need to be taken seriously.

    After the Arsenal result, I'd grudgingly settle for a point, because I do think we can beat City, but today's result gives us our cushion back.

    Chelsea now lead so the pressure is on city as they drop for now to 5th.

    These two game are crucial for us now.

    City first and then Newcastle who both need wins.

    Arsenal will just play forest over this next 7 days.

    We have a chance to apply massive pressure tomorrow but really just need to put city on the back foot and stay in the game as I can see them tieing up over thr 90mins.

    Interesting that after tomorrow we’d have played 12 games at home and 15 away. Very lopsided.

    4 away games left v Fulham Leicester Chelsea Brighton.

    It is a bit mad how we have ended up with such a good advantage towards the end. Very odd.

    Those are not my favourite away days but they are not woeful either.

    Totally agree with this
    But unfortunately atm we seem to be tiring around the 50 min mark
    Think we need to get a 6 goal lead and take it from there lol
