With only 6 games to go Sadio Mane reckons that will we have to win all our remaining fixtures to have any chance of winning the title, I agree with him, they are all must win's now including this one.

I think we all knew that we'll have to win everything after we drew with Everton and dropped to second. It seemed difficult at that point but after a victory over Spurs, it doesn't look that impossible now.

We have to play:
Southampton (a)
Chelsea (h)
Cardiff (a)
Huddersfield (h)
Newcastle (a)
Wolves (h)

While not an easy schedule by any means, only the three following games are the hardest. The last two games are also difficult on paper, but at that point I think neither of those two will have anything to play for, so it will make things easier.

So, April is our do or die month. In the same period City have a far more difficult schedule against the likes of Crystal Palace, Tottenham, and the scum. It's obviously not in our hands, but if City win everything until the end, then fair enough, they deserve the title.

Let's play a game at a time though, Southampton are in better form and are fighting for survival, so I expect a tough game. Just please, no more dicking around with Hendo and Milner in midfield.

Yup Sadio is right we will have to win all of our fixtures. If City keep winning and manage to beat Mannure and Spurs then it is over imo.

All we can do is keep up the pace and keep it tight.

Southampton will be a tough fixture as they are fighting dor survival. Quality wise we are strides above them but when teams are desperate for a result anything is possible. I really hope we win convincingly. I can't hack another last min win. I nice 2-0 comfortable win will do please.

We should have too much quality for the saints to handle.

City have eight games this month, be we also have six, so still a demanding schedule.

The only way we won't win is if, like against Leicester and West ham, the ball just won't go in for us. But other than that it's business as usual.

Away on a Friday night against a Southampton team and crowd buoyed by recent form. It’s going to be difficult just like Wolves away on a Friday night was. Think this will be more difficult than Chelsea at home the week after.

Didn't realise this was a Friday game.

Any advantage in that for us?

No real advantage, but better than an early kick off of 12.30pm, surely?

Gives us an advantage for the Porto game as we'll have extra time to prepare for that. But personally I think a Friday evening game gives a little extra edge to the home side as the home crowd will be more up for it than usual.

City 2-0 up against Cardiff HT, looks like game over. The pressure is back on us now, it's probably going to be back and forth like this until the end of the season.

Best bet is Spurs or Mannure mate all the others will roll over. I think City will comfortably beat Woys Palace and Brendans Leicester.

If City keep winning and get past both Spurs/Mancs then fair to say it is over.

But as folks are saying, City were always expected to beat Cardiff, it shouldn't be a surprise.

I know they were expected to beat Cardiff Reg and I know that Cardiff and there supposedly disgusting dishonourable owners are a bag of ***** but that performance against City looked more like a division 2 team. It was laughable and confirms everything I have ever believed about the man who has the managers job.

No need to look beyond the Palace , Spurs and Utd games as far as City are concerned IMO

I can't see them winning 3 against Spurs and I hope it's the PL they lose.
Also in the derby they will drop points I am pretty sure as the scum are fighting tooth and claw for top 4.

I’m a bag of absolutely fkg nerves and I don’t mind admitting it !! It’s great to be in with a shout of winning the league but having to follow City winning is becoming a strain on my heart  :help

Back and front pick themselves. Hendo/Milly - Gini - Fab is my preferred midfield.

Matchday folks nervously looking forward to this. I am hoping for a comfortable win but just got a feeling it will be another tight game. This title race is killing me lol. If only we can be in a comfortable position by half time and just enjoy the damn 2nd half.
