I for one have been saying for a while that Citeh are running out of steam and I also think the CL will be a big distraction for them. Its impossible to know what will happen BUT if we play liek yesterday for the rest of the season then we win, its as simple as that.
We have 3 tricky games left, Bitters away, Spurs and Chavs at home. The Bitters game you just never know, its always a tight game but I actually fancy us to demolish them on Sunday, they are playing sh*t at the moment and we are getting a head of steam again. Spurs and Chavs at home are both very winnable, both those teams are off colour at the moment.
Agreed mate. Nobody is denying City are a superb team, I'm not disrespecting them at all. But last night we showed our natural game and we're as potent if not better at attacking then they are on their best day. What gives us the edge in my opinion is that we are more consistent overall with a superior defense.
Having Fernandinho out for a few weeks whilst a congested fixture list is taking their toll as you say. Honestly, if we trash the bitters on Sunday, it'll be a big dent to their confidence and tiredness will prevail. They'll run out of steam. If we drop points, it will revitalize their resolve.
But, judging by last night's performance, will wipe the floor with the blue-sh**es.
