It's tomorrow night. And I wouldn't be surprised if Newcastle win.

Today we lost the title.

Woah, it's only one point, 10 games left. Relax, I think it's yours.

I guess City can kiss the league goodbye since we gon fry their ass next game

We best do. For some reason I feel optimistic today about 4th place. I think we'll make it.

Have you seen their run of games man? I always had a feeling that Swansea was gonna make City drop points but to LOSE outright is crazy bra. Now they are 1 point behind but their next 4 fixtures are

Chelsea H
Stoke City A
Sunderland H
Arsenal A

then the United playoff 2 games before the end. To be honest, its really United's title to lose now. Add to that the performance by United was markedly improved today. Great, great play.

Chelsea H
Stoke City A
Sunderland H
Arsenal A
H West Brom
Norwich A
Wolves A
H Man Utd
Newcastle A
H QPR

Our run-in is far more difficult.

We'll have to beat them at home to have any chance.

I'm still proud - we're miles ahead of Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs and Arsenal and we're only going to increase that gap in the coming years. United will be the thorn in our side but one year it will be our time.

I will relish this title IF we do win it because, you right.... City can only get stronger. It just is a symptom of the competitiveness of the premiership taking its toll on some clubs now though. I mean, i REALLY expected Liverpool to be in the thick of things but crazy fact

If the premiership started on 1 January, the bottom 3 would be QPR, Liverpool and Wolves.

and

Oh Juventus

The unbeatable losers

It's not fair, really. We hit the post 3 times and had a onside goal disallowed for offside. Every team has their rough patches though, and I'd rather it be right NOW then at the end of the season.

I hope Milan doesn't fuck up. They're in a good place right now.. They should win the calcio.

Increasing the gap on Chelsea in the coming years? I doubt it's going to be that drastic. This season has been a horror season for us, but as long as we grab 4th place, I'm sure we'll pick up pace next season. Hopefully we will appoint a quality manager who will make some drastic changes in the summer. It's needed.

You can't rule out a team in the future on the basis of one bad season, especially given the transition we've been going through. To be fair, we're still in the FA Cup and have a good chance of winning it.

Abramovich won't allow a manager enough time to properly oversee the transition. Whoever comes in will continue to persist with Lamps, Terry and Drogba because getting rid of them will cause problems in the short term that make the chances of being at Chelsea in the long term very small. So the same issues will persist of a slow ponderous team with no dynamism.

I am extremely depressed about City.

[Devil'sAdvocate]

I dream of torres wearing a United shirt,Fergie will know how to make him score!
