There are no easy games in this run in for any of the teams in contention as those on paper that should be overhauled are fighting for survival, that draw against Man City last night will have perked Sunderland up and although we should easily put them to the sword, they will want to go down fighting for survival, Norwich are very much the same.

Looking at what is left to play I would expect City to pick up 4 wins and a draw so finishing them on 84 points. So that means that Liverpool need another 8 points to finish above City. So beat Chelsea and they can only get to 84 points too. So IMO after the Chelsea game if we win that we will only need 2 points to win the league.
It it all depends on the Chelsea game now. I think City now have too much to do.

If you think Norwich and Palace are going to roll over and both are at home, well your daft taking those points for granted. Norwich need to win to stay out of the drop zone and Palace are on a rich vein of form, they are 2 very difficult hurdles and without Henderson!

Norwich are absolute dog turd, they wont take any points off anyone decent no matter how desperate imo.
Palace are like the maverick team at the moment though, they are loving upsetting everyone so they could beat anyone.

But did you expect Sunderland to take points off City??

Sunderland I have seen flickers of light from even if they were a good few games ago. Ive seen them play some decent stuff at times so although it was unexpected I wouldnt have said impossible before the match.
Norwich's problem is they never look like scoring. Add to that the defence is rather generous and theres no way in hell they will get anything apart from a beating from a decent side.

There are absolutely no easy games! Eh? Now where have we heard that before?
History suggests that the relegation battlers usually cause a few upsets at the tail end of a season so I expect a few more this time around too. Actually, that's me 'holding it all in' until we've won!

Please don’t ask to see my tatts 👍
Well ave just got up havin got in at midnight having drove back from the etihad.
Sum it up in one word. DIRE.
i went last week and watched us get battered by Southampton yet we won 4-1, watched us against Liverpool and we got battered for the first 30-40 mins. Last night it was sunderlands turn, with the same coloured shirts it looked like Southampton battering us again. It was dire.
heard dzecko is being offered a new deal. Mama Mia why?
Got 3x tickets off a pal for last nights game who is on his jols in Spain. He said all the talk in the Spanish papers is about Messi joining City. If he saw last night game he might wanna reconsider.
can I be the first to congratulate Liverpool
Also sorry to all the sheep on the Derbyshire hills who heard Tashyboy swearing all the way home last night.

I hate to say it but I think it might be Liverpool's year! They just need to keep their heads and not panic and its theirs!
However saying that, its very very tight at the top! If City win their game in hand there will only be 4 points between the top 3!

My bottle's gone TBH. I'm not going to get over-confident, unless we win the next two games, and even then Palace are playing some good stuff and getting great results. Can't we just all play our games in the next 4-5 nights - the wait between each games and tension is killing me. I've forgotten what it feels like, the last time it was like this was when we won the 3 cups in one season (2001), where every week was like (or was) a cup final.

Do ye believe yet ....................... BELIEVE

Wouldn't swap it for the world. There is a large part of me that wants the blues to get 4th as well, the city will be buzzing if we both get it. You've got to beat City and United to do it now though - if you do, you will more than deserve it. Managers of the season:- 1. Rodgers come what may (style off football and to take a team from 7th to 1/2/3 is the biggest leap). 2. Pullis Palace were dead and landfill, but has now made them a good mid-table team. 3. Bobby Martinez if they get 4th.

Liverpool will do it. They're in the driving seat, are the form team and are totally motivated to see it through.
Never imagined they could pull it off at the start of the season!

I might be a little bit biased, but I think Liverpool are looking good. 2-0 up against City, go under immense pressure and get pulled back to 2-2, then end up winning 3-2 instead of loosing the game. To me that is what champions do and Fergie was the master of it.
The confidence that result against City has given them must fantastic.

I would like too see Liverpool win, they seem to be playing the best football and they have a good smattering of English players in their team.

My brother in law is a a scouser and if Liverpool win the league I won't hear the end of it especially as I said Spurs would finish above them , but I hope they do win the league as they have played some great football .

Shame one nominee isn't happy with a nomination and has to drag race into the equation!
Looks like a cheap shot at getting the award to me.
