      'uddersfield looking like a Championship side. Need to get at City. Very tame game. Still 0-1...now 0-2..was offside but Ass ref was unsighted..VAR would've ruled Sane offside....0-3 now..walk in the Park for City.

      Bloody annoying with Spurs getting that last gasp winner, but they've now lost Kane, Son and Alli plus are still in the League and FA Cup. Good luck with that!!
      As we've all known, its between us and Citeh, lets just hope for another hiccup from them to give us some breathing space or perhaps a few injuries at some point, like we've had to deal with.

      I hate to say it  but I'm Not the least bit bothered we are out of the FA Cup given that it has provided an opportunity for Koop to take the squad away, patch up some injured players, bit of team bonding, relieve a bit of the media pressure that has just started to build. Feels like really good timing to me.

      After years of dropping sloppy points to teams lower down the league we now sit in mid January having not dropped a single point to teams outside the top six.

      Firstly, how F***ing mental is that?!

      Secondly, even with 3 games left against the top six, we surely win the league if we keep that up for the 12 remaining games.

      Correct. But we do have room for error. They don't.

      In total agreeance with DLS.

      We control our own destiny here. We win all our games and we win the League, what City do is irrelevant at this point. We can only control what we do. The minute that any thought of being able to afford to drop points enters the psyche we are fu**ed.

      Agreed - itā€™s mental to think we can win all our remaining games though - surely thatā€™s not possible?

      We are in charge and have the slightly easier fixtures.

      Of the remaining 15 matches, we have 7 identical fixtures to City (same opponent both of us play them home or both of us play them away) : -
      Leicester (h)
      Man U (a)
      Watford (h)
      Everton (a)
      Spurs (h)
      Chelsea (h)
      Newcastle (a)
      As these are identical fixtures, there is no advantage either way.

      5 "opposite" fixtures (if we play them home, City play them away and vice versa) with us playing: -
      West Ham (a)
      Bourn (h)
      Burnley (h)
      Fulham (h)
      Cardiff (a)
      So we play 3 of these home, 2 away, but City obviously have 2 home & 3 away, so slight advantage to us?

      The other 3 matches are:-

      Us
      Huddersfield (h)
      Wolves (h)
      Soton (a)

      City
      Palace (a)
      Brighton (a)
      Arsenal (h)
      So us having 2 home, 1 away, them having 1 home, 2 away and arguably more difficult opponents overall?

      So, from purely matching up all our remaining fixtures, we have slight advantage BEFORE our 4 point lead.  Obviously things don't pan out as simply as this, but just think it looks interesting and positive if viewed like this.

      Why isn't it? There's only one side who've proven they can beat us this year and we've already got them out the way.

      Before a ball was kicked this season, it wasn't possible for anybody to be even close to City, let alone comfortably ahead of them going into the final third of the season (if you believe the F***ing "experts" that is). Yet here we are. Four points clear with the knowledge that thirteen wins from fourteen games guarantees us the League.

      It was possible to be close, but people didn't believe it.

      Doesn't matter what the rest do, we deserve to be top of the league so far, because we're the best team with the best results. And instead of people wondering when we're going to crack, we should get more credit for it.

      Just gonna piss me off that Citeh will most likely be  1 point behind come the time we play Leicester.

      Hope Rafa can pull something out and take points off them. With any luck he starts Rondo and Perez against them, unlike he did against us, when I thought he was doing us a wonderful favor!

      I'm not so sure, I have a funny feeling Newcastle might be able to get something out of that game.

      I agree and Newcastle seem to have found a bit of form in the last few matches. Not saying its likely but would be so sweet if Rafa can give us a bit of help in our quest.

      On another note I was really surprised to see Citeh start with 4-5 first team players yesterday, what a silly risk to take when you are 9-0 up. I would have just played the reserves in that match, not even risking anyone who is normally on the bench.
