God imagine if we win this to go 5/5. I'd make us favs for the title.
Man City got 100 points last season. Hypothetically, if we win the first five, and they lose the first five, and last season’s results are replicated thereafter, they will still win the title!
We’ve a long way to go before we can be considered title favourites, and we need to stay calm.
Yes, the team is good. Yes, we’ve been grinding out wins even when not at our best yet, which is obviously a good sign. In previous years you would imagine that one of two of the last three games would have seen points dropped, which is all good. But steady on, as Raheem once said to Brendan!
Let’s see how we look after the tough run we’ve got coming up. There’s a long, long way to go yet. I don’t look at Bookies odds and whatnot, but I’d have Man City as clear favourites, with us second favourites, but one or two other teams, like Spurs, closer to us as second favourites than we are to Man City as favourites.
One game at a time and all that. Beating Spurs at Wembley, after last season’s collapse, will be lovely.
