Gerrard has had a pathetic start at Villa.

I think I read Dean Smith has had a better start at Norwich than Gerrard has at Villa.

Loudest Man City fans have been.

 

Champions of England and their fans are shit.

It's odd because when they were crap and playing at Maine Road, I always thought their atmosphere was great. That huge Kippax terrace made some proper noise.

They're only 1 point off

 

Where I wouldn't necessarily say they have blown it, it's not really as simple as saying "1 point off". The three teams ahead of them have a game in hand and the three teams behind them all have three games in hand and could leapfrog them. 

 

Ofcourse they are in a great position but not quite as great a position than a quick glance at the table would have you believe.

I think it is, don’t believe the media, net spend is where it is at.

4th is up for grabs and seeing how we wet ourselves the past two seasons it's only right the footy God's allow us a late run where we upset the odds and steal in like a David Speadie dive and still go finish 11 points above Spurs!

Southampton seem to have a injury break between 60-70min mark in every game they play to refuel on performance gel and drinks and coaching words with the manager, and it works.

Think we should do a similar thing!

We have a substitute break at 65 minutes

Feels like Spurs always get something when they play Man City. 

[Fox92]

Kane has deserved that goal, he's been outstanding.

[Fox92]

Dias is half the defender he was last season too. 

[foxes_rule1978]

Great run from Kane and nice finish 

[foxes_rule1978]

Want Man City to win, come on 

[Anorak]

Son and Kane must wish they had half the space Man City give them most weeks. 

[Arkie Bennett]

Carragher is annoying me for some reason, he really is.

[hebangsthedrums]

Man City are so tedious, just beat Spurs and stroll the league...

Just glad we haven’t ended up with Gerrard or Lampard. 

[CrispinLA in Texas]

Man city seem to get about 4 goals against smaller opposition but find it hard against the top 6 teams. 

Sterling's also struggles against the big teams aswell

Having played 3 more matches than Arsenal who are on the same points

Yeah Lampard was desperate to come here.

They may may been great players but you tend to find brilliant managers were average players

That is that, nice finish… title race is truly alive
