Depends on the game- if it's the last game of the season and you are 1 point ahead etc   

And if a game puts you 10 points clear of second place it is more than likely a season defining moment.If we had beaten City I don't think they would ever have caught us- each game after that the pressure on them would have been nerve jangling at best,

The City game was a bad loss at the time but it was the draws against Leicester and West Ham what really hurt us. After City won us they lost to Newcastle a couple of games later and if we'd have won Leicester and West Ham in that same period City would have never caught us.

At this point, winning at least one of those two would have been enough. But take nothing away from the loss from City, it's just as important as those two draws. Have we at least drawn against City, it would have been a huge blow to them. By beating us we gave them hope and motivation to win games that they would have otherwise drawn/lost.

But enough with the negativity, what's done is done, but it's not over yet. We win everything until the end of the season and the title's ours.

Pressure is ramping up now and I think Spurs and Manure will play a big part in the title race.  Both clubs need all of the points they can get to clinch top 4 and they won't be giving any inch when they play City in a few weeks.

Let's hope that fixture pile up for City in April takes its toll on their tired legs.

APRIL

(LIVERPOOL)

5th- Southampton A

9th- Porto H (ucl)

14th- Chelsea H

17th- Porto A (ucl)

21st- Cardiff A

26th- Huddersfield H

-----------------------------------

(MAN CITY)

3rd- Cardiff H

6th- Brighton H (Fa cup)

9th - Spurs A (ucl)

14th- Palace A

17th- Spurs H (ucl)

20th- Spurs H

24th- Man utd A

28th- Burnley H


If they progress in the UCL there will also be a potential semi final few days after Burnley.

Man city will be pretty much playing a game every three days. I think the Palace, Spurs and Manure games will decide it.

Assuming, of course, that we don't drop anything against Chelsea or Southampton.

[redshade]

Southampton have been on a decent run and are fighting for survival. Then we have Chelsea who are also fighting for their own cause. City will drop points I'm sure so we just have to get maximum.
Tough task but if we want the title that is what needs to be done.

[Red Rum]

Every game like a cup final now. No mistakes.

[Pig Catcher]

It's these three fixtures that City have really. They're not going to drop points against the likes of Cardiff and their final 3 games will be against teams that have nothing meaningful to play for. We need to win our remaining games and hope City slip up somewhere in this little run. Palace away is a tough game and the other two are against top 6 opposition.

Sunday 14th April - Crystal Palace away
Saturday 20th April - Tottenham home
Wednesday 24th April - Manchester United away

[Red Rum]

Hopefully fatigue will play a big part in the dramatic run in. I'm certain.

Nice one

[devaney]

And if needed let’s hope Rogers can cause City a problem in May !!

[Franky000]

Man, I have a good feeling in my bones about this season...

I remember thinking when we were 7 points in front that we’d win the title, but only the Liverpool way...that is, dropping to second and making us suffer until the death....kind of like how we’ve won a lot of games this season...
