Can see why Everton fans get frustrated
Looked good in attack which meant Gomes had to be in top form but shaky at the back which cost them a goal. |

Still not totally assured of Champions League football next season with this win, if we can carry on our good record against the better teams in this league, then we might be just a point behind them this time tomorrow.

Anyhow we went over this you're clearly not going to ever analyse them with any sense of objectivity |

Van Gaal's constipated style could bite United in the backside, their goal difference is poor (+12) compared to City (+25) and Arsenal (+22), entirely due to Van Gaal's rotten goal scoring record this season. It would serve him right if he was sacked for missing out on Champions League qualification on goal difference.
Still got to hope that Arsenal and Chelsea turn up against them, as those seem to be the type of games that they struggle in. |

I wonder if pellegrini would of been sacked even if guardiola wasn't coming because lets face it man city being so far behind the leaders is pretty embarrassing for a team that should have been winning the league comfortably.

Hope to God United win tomorrow but they're not consistent enough. With their players back and a motivated team I can't see city lose another game
Anyhow we went over this you're clearly not going to ever analyse them with any sense of objectivity As for the Spurs match, it will be one heck of a tough game, and I would put them as favourities, and we will have to come up with a very good game plan, if we are to come away with a victory. |

Oh yes I fully agree there, makes me remember when Sir Alex said that goal difference would not be a problem for us the year after City won their first Premier League title.
Still got to hope that Arsenal and Chelsea turn up against them, as those seem to be the type of games that they struggle in. Neither is an issue anymore. |

Yes I can, I think we are very inconsistent, and we have a lot of problems that need rectifying if we are to hope to challenge for the top prizes any time soon.

You might have started off being the negative supporter for real now I think you are taking the piss and the act is wearing thin. Leicester are not going to be dropping out the CL places and you know it. |

Analyse city I mean, your view is blatantly clouded by club bias
You said they hadn't a hope v psg! City do have a good squad of players, especially going forward, but there is questions at the back about them. |

City will get top 4 as its about motivation for them. They won't want to finish outside the top 4 and with the threat being there they will step it up and win enough games.
