      2-0...City..

      I think the Everton players deserve some credit..

      They held their own 1st half. Late though, not so much.

      Only bonus for us this weekend is that City have got Chelsea. We still have a game in hand as well.

      That’s just our luck at the moment. We have set piece goals going against us but going well for City, at the same time Spurs and City are nicking late goals or goals late in a half.

      No denying it, this has been a bad week for us, from having should of been 7 clear under a week ago, we are now 2nd (all be it with a game in hand).

      Pressure on, let’s hope we can get back to winning ways and the Chavs can help us out a bit.

      By the way, how sh*te is Theo Walcott?! Christ he’s a horrific player.

      No real surprise and the Blueshite will convince themselves they played well and were unlucky. Move on its better to hunt than be hunted so lets go Manc hunting

      That was another game by City though that was far from a good performance. They struggled against Newcastle and ended up losing, they weren’t particularly good vs Arsenal and today they were far from their best. If Chelsea are on their game then I think they have a good chance of getting something from City because they don’t look solid. Several times they were arguing amongst themselves, Kyle Walker can’t defend to save his life and they look like something is missing. They don’t look like a team that will win all 12 remaining games, they look like there are more points to be dropped by them and I hope that proves to be the case.

      Watched parts of the game.

      Everton clearly played. They tried. They are crap. They are just crap. Can't really hold it against them. It's just the truth.

      Man City on the other hand were nearly as bad as Everton. They were sloppy, pressured, panicky, mediocre. Pretty crap really.

      All the talk of Liverpool feeling the pressure, but City are under performing more than we are. They grabbed the win (Everton were never going to score), but the 3 points was 99% guaranteed before kick off, so nothing new tonight.

      I just wish, more than anything we had a few more proven winners in the team.

      We look nervous, and in that sort of situation players look around the dressing room looking for inspiration. A classic example was Alan Hansen, a bag of nerves by himself but with the likes of Dalglish and Souness in the ranks he thought the team was invincible.

      This is just such a myth these players would have already won so many trophies, leagues in their age bands so they have already experienced the pressure that is causing most fans to lose their senses!

      Besides which Leicester player had any previous?

      Was just about to make this point.. the key was Ranieri & an exceptional set of circumstances..

      I know Milner has won it, Shaq in Germany & most importantly the Boss..

      That is exactly what I am saying, no body expected Leicester to win the League, not even the manager or players. It was a unown adventure, for LFC it is slightly different, I feel like we should be the best and if the players had it in their dna then the way we won championships in the past (with a swagger) would give us supporters more belief.

      We certainly make it interesting, I yearn for the days when we use to win with a swagger.

      That is why everybody wants anyone else to win the league, because we were that good.

      United back in top four, title winning form since new manager. Next season will be contested.

      United's streak under Solschaer can be put down to 2 things I believe.

      1 they hated Mourinho and the feel good factor is back and 2 Solschaer doesn't make his wide forwards track back meaning they can counter.

      Easy game football with good players and at times tactics can get in the way. They win the ball and counter and with the best players that's hard to stop.

      A lot of big clubs are going down the route of bringing positive influences from a past era back into clubs as the manager.

      Would love them to get a result, but their away form has been bad, and Hazard's mind is already in Spain imho. Fingers crossed tho.

      Just a bounce like it was when Kenny took us over. He'll get the job full time then it will be like us with Kenny on his second reign here - it will all go tits up.

      He's doing the right job is Ole - keep it up. Then we can see them sack another manager halfway through next season.

      He's doing a good job with the attack, but I still think that defence is suspect.

      Watching MOTD - F**k me everton are F***ing sh*te. After hearing that sh*t about wanting to purposely lose against city then bending over the whole game - I genuinely think they’re the biggest bunch of cu*ts on the planet.

      I F***ing despise them.

      Title winning form yes (( 10 from 11 )) but simple truth is you lads and City still the better teams. We need summer spending to become title contenders.
