We can dream. The title is entirely in our hands. Win all remaining games and we win the title.
That is exactly how we should all be thinking this morning and beyond, it’s a simple equation isn’t it but obviously much harder to accomplish, we have to assume now that Pep G will focus his players to do exactly the same thing, they still remain one point ahead, we have Watford to play 2nd of April,(early KO), City have Burnley (a) and will be two points behind, before they KO,
Then it’s the big one, probably the title decider but with a huge Q mark, a game where before last night was a must win, now it’s a must not lose,(we won’t) and that’s a hell of a difference, because now it’s City who absolutely have to win, so the pressure is still on them massively, probably even more than it was trying to remain ahead, and having failed,
It has been proven yet again that City do not handle pressure very well, now I don’t know whether that’s down to complacency on their part but to have thrown away a 14 point lead in the hardest of leagues is pretty damn poor from a team considered the best in the world(their not), I’ve said this before I’ll say it again, City are without doubt a brilliant team, no question, no, I’ll rephrase that, their a brilliant side, not team, we are a team, because we play as a team, City do not,
It is the only explanation I can think of as to why City, with all their billions habitually bottle it when it comes down to getting over the line, they fall at the last hurdle unless they are in a unassailable position, but as soon as pressure is applied, they more often than not F**k it up,
and at this moment in time look like their doing it yet again, they may have a side full of big stars and fancy Dans, ego’s swelling their dressing room, but they don’t have that team spirit, that togetherness you need to win at all costs something we have in abundance and that is the difference between us becoming Champions and them as bridesmaids.
There will be six games after we meet, it is entirely possible they could regain their one point advantage, it’s also entirely possible we could be 5 ahead or three, and if you factor in that we are the Monsters of mentality it’s probable that Red ribbons rather than sky blue will be on the EPL trophy in May !!
