At this stage all signs point to them retaining it, in the end, quite comfortably.

This is exactly what I'm talking about What the £#%&! is that shit.

They're 3 points ahead of second place after a tight win over the team that were joint first with them last night. How the £#%&! have you somehow turned that into 8 points clear and 'quite comfortably retaining the league'.

Truly bizarre.

It is called being realistic pal?

3 points ahead of second place Spurs, are you suggesting they are going to mount a serious title challenge

I have turned it into winning the league because City are the only ones i think can realistically challenge them and they are 8 adrift.

You on the other hand think Spurs can challenge, who else, Southampton? They are only 4 points behind after all. Everton are in with a shout surely!

Liverpool have definitely had the rub of the green in some of their home league games, last night included.

Despite this, they are certainly not (as was already evidently the case a year ago) unstoppable.

Its all to play for
