It's a tough run SNIAW, but all of the ties seem to have other complications for our opponents. City will be playing a game every few days, for example, as they have 7 games between the 1st and 25th of January. They also lose players to the African Nations and any new signings will have to bed in. Liverpool should have Suarez banned, Newcastle may still be missing Tiote and Ba, you play in Milan then (presumably) an FA Cup tie. Howard Webb and Mark Clattenberg are eloping together when we play Utd... It's a test for our squad, but with a little bit of tweaking in January, it's one that I think we can pass.
If we are still near the top after those fixtures I think we are real challengers for the title! Luckily we won't be risking injuries or fitness of players in European ties inbetween those key fixtures I also believe we will have played 3 games less then you at home come the new year
