    We're not finishing above Chelsea this season, not a hope in hell. They are far too organised for that and anybody who finishes above them will be champions, it won't be us. In fact I think Chelsea will win the league this season, it's not nailed on but I can't see past them at the moment.

    I don't think we will win the league for one minute, my point is that things can change quickly. For instance, we could have gone top on Tuesday night, by the end of Sunday we could be 9 points behind them. They could have a few draws and we could be closer again. Same goes for all the teams around us.

    Of course, no doubt.

    I think we'll do our usual this season, hang around the top 3 pretending to challenge for the title without really challenging!

    We do look a bit more solid this season but I think we just lack that extra something to break out as champions elect.

    And after 7 games when City were winning every game no-one could look past them.
    Have to say that right now Chelsea are looking pretty good and the lack of European football will help them but there's a long way to go yet.

    In all fairness Chelsea have beaten a lot of their title rivals. Of course we took them to the cleaners in what was our best performance of the season and Liverpool also beat them, but since their formation change they have looked superb to be fair.

    Man City had a fairly routine start, when coming up against decent opposition they have lost every time from what I can remember, I think them beating United was their only win against a rival so to speak.

    We have actually done OK so far...we struggled against United and to a degree Spurs...shouldn't have really lost to Liverpool...and took Chelsea apart...in the other games we have largely done well with the exception of Tuesday.

    Of course we are still in the race...I just don't think we have the mentality or extra bit of quality to break out of the pack and be champions.

    I'd say we have the quality to challenge, I'm not sure about mentality. This weekend's game will be interesting, not sure I'd say it's a "must win" but a win would put us on the front foot again and show some intent.

    Chelsea and Liverpool are the ones to watch. Chelsea more. They have players with the experience to go all the way. We have a chance though. Slight hope but wouldn't be surprised if this loss knocks the teams confidence. Bitches.

    If it does then yes, we have no chance. Whoever our manager is, and I'd agree he's never been much of a motivator, the players need to take some responsibility, get their shizzle together and pick themselves up.
    They are grown-ups, they shouldn't need that much extra motivation.
