Not sure how we can lose something we don't yet have.

Because all the seson's results of each team are worked out in advance, & then we lose to whoever is doing ok at the time.

Then when they fuck up, the results are reworked, & we lose to whoever is doing ok at that time. Etc.

Are we under the radar? Does this put pressure on the dippers? Good.

I still think we'll win it. Every chance of losing at he dippers but we can afford one loss and probably a draw at Arsenal. It will be tight for sure but the dippers aren't going to win every game either.

How do you work that out? They are 2 points above us having played 2 more games. They aren't favourites, we are. 4 of our last 6 games are at home, consider that

I've got a horrible feeling that whoever refs the derby will be out to balance the scales after Clattenburgs generosity yesterday.

We're still there. Cannot see Dippers taking 6 points from us and the Chavs

Not saying they WILL win it. Just they are probably favorites imo. They have won 10 of last 12 and drawn 2. Scored a lot of goals as well. They haven't just ground out results by being lucky, they are playing well and have the momentum. Big bonus at this time of year that.

Plus their remaining fixtures have only 2 sides in top 8, both at Anfield where they are strong. We certainly, have a piss poor record there.

However as Rodgers has said. If we will all our games we are the champions. I personally doubt we will and if we lose at Anfield the initiative will swing to dippers.

Again, dippers haven't actually challenged properly for years and when push comes to shove they might bottle it. Time will tell

But we've been dropping games at home. Us being at home isn't as formidable of a prospect as it used to be. Clubs will know that Wigan came to the Etihad and won and that will give them (more) hope that might not have been there in the first few months of the season. It's like a lesser version of how teams don't fear going to OT this season

It's still anyone's title. All season we've been trying to write off Arsenal, Liverpool and even Chelsea's chances but they are all still here and in with a chance as we are.
If we win our games in hand we're three points clear but we also have the hardest fixture list out of the four teams so it's nicely balanced.
First Arsenal had all the momentum, then we did, then Chelsea and now Liverpool, it keeps changing on almost a weekly basis.
Plenty more twists and turns to come and I can't wait.
The one thing for sure though is this season we've certainly fought for the title unlike last season where we raised the white flag in December.
