Man city let everyone down again

Stoke no mugs.

Agree Stoke better than mid table

Well, Spuds smashed them to bits just a few weeks ago.

Stoke are very average.

And Citeh are just not a good side.

They're a good side? What about fuuuccking Wigan! Are they a good side?

League Cup Final... just an off day

My mistake the F.A. Cup. Ffs

shortest price beats mug treble shocker

this has never happened before

golden rule when betting on City

If Clichy and Navas  are in starting 11 = LAY

Mug outfit. Think they had one shot on target all game.  Don't get much for 1.5 billion quid these days.

they are 10/1 for CL

Only a clown would put a 1/6 (or what ever) into a bet. Even when city win they turn people over. Handicaps, half/full time, goals, clean sheets. Only fuuuucking ass looks at they're doggy results and thinks "yeah they won so the bookies will be paying out." Paying out on 1/6s and cleaning up on the evens.

Prior to this match Stoke away games 13 conceded 25

Sane deserves a bafta

Starting with Navas is asking for trouble, like starting match with 10 men

Didn't let me down. i laid them!

Think me and Des know City as well as anyone

City have been getting very overrated in the media recently how Pep has turned it around etc. They have just been playing the bottom teams.

Then again same will get said for Wenger in a few weeks when they go on a run of playing all the bottom teams too.

Don't think the media have overrated City recently. Most of the time the headline is about a Bravo mistake when they win 5-1 ! or why Aguero is on the bench behind Jesus and if Aguero's going in the summer. If anything they've been critical rightly or wrongly.

yep city still have to play 4 of the top 6. spurs really should nail down 2nd from here. negotiated all the diffcult aways already and as soft a run in as you could possibly ask for

Spurs last 5 : Leicester away, Arsenal home, West Ham away, United home, Hull away

You are talking about decision making with regards to selection. I mean in terms of how they've been playing. I have seen people go as far to say City are the best team in the league, they're just chasing a deficit recently. On the basis that you beat a few poor sides and won a pingball match with Monaco. The shortcomings are the same they have been all season. You stuffed all the poor teams at the start of the season too. City haven't even been that convincing in most these games either, it was only West Ham you really totally rolled over.

Spurs, City probably finish on roughly the same points.

so you'd back Spurs at 1.2 top 4? I think Arsenal and United will beat them at WHL

even Burnley away they could drop points

I doubt Arsenal and Utd both beat them. I would expect them to take at least 4 points from that.

I think Spurs have better fixtures than the others anyway. When I filled in the results the other week I think I had Spurs comfortably finishing top 4 on something like 82 points, City probably get a similar tally. Then the rest fighting over 1 spot.

Mug comment in fairness.

no way City or Spurs end on 82

Why do you think Spurs will lose at home to both these teams?   When is the last time they've lost last home to either?

Wenger needs a new contract and Mourinho needs to 4 and Spurs normally mess up

82 above par although certainly possible. wouldn't be surprised if we won say 9 of the last 11. 6 wins which would guarantee a top 3 finish really should be nailed on though

The advantage Spurs and City have is quite a bit anyway. 6 points. Liverpool don't have the consistency, Arsenal look a rabble right now (fully expect City to turn them over comfortably in a few games time), and Utd have a gazillion games and a bad fixture list to boot. Spurs or City would have to collapse to not make top 4 really from here.

9 games where we'll be 1.7 or shorter and around 2.2 at home to arsenal and united

1.7 at Leicester, West Ham and Hull?

liverpool were 1.7 last week at leicester, west ham maybe 1.8 but they'll have nothing to play for and absolute maximum 1.6 at hull last game of season if it's still a live game

West Ham will see Spurs as their cup final as usual though. Their only chance to get a big scalp at their new stadium this season after being mauled by all the other top clubs.

sofa, i've no doubt west ham will try their nuts off against us which has not exactly been in evidence against our rivals this season but take west brom against arsenal next week - a better more organised team than west ham against a rabble of a side in utter disarray. the odds ? 1.7ish

can't help thinking City would've put this to bed if they weren't in the CL and 10 pts behind Chelsea
