Winning Ugly

[lovecity8utd]

If chelsea can win at the weekend, we MUST beat WHU, putting us 7 points clear with 4 games left. We can afford to lose to everton and spurs and it still be in our own hands. However, I fancy a boring 0-0 Mancini special at everton and at least the same v spurs. We could have a double celebration on cup final weekend

If the scum can also beat Arsenal, it would leave us two points behind with a game in hand. Massive win last night and massive game to come next against WHU - it's a must win.

Good point KK. A vital 3 pts putting things right in our own hands. If we can beat West Ham on sunday it really ramps up the pressure on Spurs.

Winning ugly separates the champions from the runners up. If we can add this string to our bow It'll stand us in good stead for the future.

WHU will fight as hard as they can and it amounts to a cup final for them. However there are advantages in that and City's quality should pay off and we can bide our time knowing they are desperate for a result. Wont be easy by any means but another ugly win would be more than acceptable. We can really take the run in into our own hands and on top of that these games are a good training ground for the team for next season. 5 difficult must win games to chase and secure the possibility of 3rd.

@ Mark Garret,

Your sig had me looking back at where Mancini presently stood compared to other City managers over the years and I was very suprised indeed mate.
If my maths is correct, (and no doubt someone will point out if I'm wrong)...his win % is 53.74...(if correct) that would put him in 3rd place of our managers, behind Sam Cowan (69.2%) and Tom Maley (59.3%). Much better than I ever expected it to be.
