      I would be extremely surprised if that happens, big clubs do NOT lie down for other clubs, especially not your nearest rival who has taken your crown in recent years!

      That would be utter spineless if they do. Like the "people next door"... :sleeping-smiley-011:

      There offside goals help. Swansea showed the way to play city show no fear but every team if there not putting out there reserve team against them are not even trying. Fulham tried much harder against us. Teams need to get at them show no fear

      Even in games they don't play well in they can win, they get loads of decisions also, rat bags who've ruined football

      Yep that’s the key, I think we can possibly afford to draw one game but not tomorrow. It’s a must win, particularly with them playing Cardiff midweek. Have to keep the pressure up until they hit their tough spell of games

      I like being a day behind them because when we win and go back it puts more pressure on them we are in the perfect position

      Nah, perfect position would have been to be 7 points clear like we used to be.

      Would have been 5 wins away from guaranteeing the title. Instead we are 7 wins away from at best finishing a point behind as things currently stand.
      Just our luck that the season we perform like this, there is another team doing it too. If the unfortunate does happen and we don’t win it, it will be the West Ham and Leicester games that cost us, especially as we had the lead in both games. Would have allowed us room to slip up against either Spurs or Chelsea.

      Think we all agree we didn't play well but main thing is we got the 3 points somehow. So at least I can look forward to motd tonight to take my mind off the fact that tomorrow is F***ing monday😭 again.

      Just need to get through difficult games against Southampton away and Chelsea home with all 6 points and then City have a tough pile up after those games.

      This is going to go to the final game against Wolves! I can see it!

      It really would be rather special if it was Rodgers who stops City for us after they pipped us to it in 13/14.

      Imagine how City feel. They were looking home and dry level on points with a game in hand and now I the last minute they have to once again play catch up as we refuse to give up

      Southampton are winning games and look good!

      Need to be careful with this one, Mane and Lallana to score.

      They won't but it's the support in the stands that will be muted and that may affect performance on the pitch.

      Yeah their fans must have been getting pretty excited in the latter part of our last two games only for late goals to kick them in the nuts!

      I think Jürgen needs to find a way to effectively work some of the other players into contributing over the next few weeks, particularly with the Porto ties coming up. It feels like Keita and Shaqiri have been completely black-balled whilst Origi (despite not really doing a great deal is first reserve these days). Surely we are going to need something from these two (and Lallana) if we're to win something this season? The side today lacked creativity and it's clear we need some from her until the end of the season.

      Just need city at least to draw these two  matches and we win our remaining games, that will do.

      I don't like warnocks attitude on motd tonight saying he play his under23 team v city during the week with relegation six pointer v burnley sat. Not that a full strength Cardiff team. Would take any points off city. I hope teams like Bournemouth and Watford who played 2nd string teams. Teams are beat before they play city. Go at them like Swansea did not sit back and make it easy for them and put out understrength teams though warnocks hates us anyway.

      It makes me laugh. Everyone around the world who’s not a Liverpool supporter want City to win it.

      Plus it makes me laugh how City call us the luckiest team in the history of football. Fact is they’ve spent a f**king sh*t load of money, the most money in the history of football and we’re still taking them on toe to toe.

      F***ing love it.
