Next Three Matches...

[Blue Since 76]

The main thing is, unlike every other side battling for the top 4, it's in our own hands. If we win every game between now and the end of the season, we can't be caught. That won't happen, but taking each match individually, there is no match we can't win. It's in our own hands and you can't ask for much more than that at this stage of the season - if we don't make 4th, it's our own fault.

Every match is important.

You get 3 points from 'em all. You can name things like form, rivals etc - but it's bullshit. You get enough points and you finish where you fucking well finish.

The top teams don't become top teams because they win "six pointers" or win "can't lose" games. They are top because they constantly win matches. Similarly those teams at the bottom of their respective leagues. They didn't lose against "fellow strugglers" they lost. And that, that result, is all that matters. Fuck the opposition. We are City. The next game is just as important as the last.

I'm sorry for having a go, but this shit gets to me.

sure, statistically speaking if we get 4 points from the next 4 matches we can still win out and have a go at it i suppose. Yr right.

When does this team take on the attitude that yr portraying top teams to have? that's my question? they need to sack up and hit the fucking ground running and go win some shit. if i were the team and manager i'd surely be taking one match at a time. How else can you focus?

my point is that we can expect to analyze what we've done over the next several matches and get a pretty good indicator if we have what it takes. Surely that 'complexity' isn't lost on you, is it?

Hat off!
As simple as perfect.

I'm confident of winning the Wigan game but i do feel we are gonna strugle against Fulham and Everton, to only get 2 points or none from those games would really have us up against it for 4th. I really do think we need to win the Fulham, Everton, Villa and Spurs games to be confident of getting 4th.

3of the 4 are at home. 7 or 9 will do very nicely
