It will come down to the 6 pointers with City and Chelsea in March.
I feel we will all dispatch the pub teams consistently so no one will pull away.
There's a level between the 6 pointers against Man City and Chelsea, and the proles.
And in that level, we have games like Liverpool away, Everton away, Man Utd at home and Tottenham away. That's near 30% of our remaining games - I.e. Non trivial.
In order to get into the position where the Man City and Chelsea games will decide the title, we've got to put aside, say, 3 out of those 4 teams. That's going to be difficult. A win at Anfield would set things up a lot better.
In terms of topb 4 finish, things are looking rosy at the moment with msot of our rivals 8 or more points behind.
In terms of the title, we'll push City close and we'll be a lot closer to them than we were to man ure last season but as has bene pointed out, we have some really tough fixtures to come and i (and many on here id imagine) dont see us winning or not losing them all.
this time last year, after 24 games, we had 38 points. this year we have 55. huge improvement.
the final 14 games of last season, we won 35 points out of 42. do that again this year, we will be champions
What Wenger said about journalists applies to us fans too. Before we actually win something, there will always be a doubt with every lost, so we can only hope the team actually win something. And also because the last time we've won the league, we were way way way too "convincing", even though it wasn't the case, as someone pointed out even The Invincibles had problems too, even at those times I feel we were fragile and I feel this team is "stronger" after loses than The Invincible.
I think it's safe to say the next few weeks is going to pretty much shape our season. I think by this time next week we will really understand where we are in regards to our title challenge.
I personally feel we need to beat both Liverpool and Man Utd if we want to win PL, though 4 points of out of possible 6 would not be bad, though I think that would put pressure on us to beat one of Chelsea or Man City.
Whatever happens it's going to be exciting and it's nice being involved in a title race and the major cup competitions.

We could not be anymore unconvincing.
