If City go top then it'll be because if a run of 12 games where they've won 11, drawn 1. We've done remarkably well to stay top as long as we have.
We're 15 points better off than we were at this stage last season.

We can't blame City and Chelsea for us dropping 2 points but City drew there too, every team drops silly points here and there. We're competing with sides who have infinite resources, it's very difficult. There's been a clear improvement since last season though, last year with a performance as I've heard last night's was we'd have lost. We're going in the right direction, I'm not sure what else you can ask of the manager or club.
Thats what we are up against and thats why we'll probably not win the league. We cannot win 10+ games on the spin, we dont have the players or goals and when you consider that City have improved their away record and their players seem to be gelling together more and more, its gonna be hard.

Id love a draw tonight but i can honestly see them winning 0-3, they have so much firepower and create umpteen chances per game.

We'll do well to be up there with them this season.
