I for one still maintain as i did at the very start of the season that we will not win the league
we have done fantastically well to be where we are considering the personal change and the fact that we were so far off the last 2 years
However, looking at the run in, on paper we could conceivably go on a very good run and take it to the final games or until the liverpool game.
I am still worried about City, i think that they have the squad and ability to win EVERY game they play and if they do the title is theirs. our only hope for them ( on paper ) is their difficult games against United and Pool. I actually cannot see united keeping them out based on their season so far but with a slight form improvement maybe, just maybe then can nick a win.
As for their game against liverpool, I cant see the scouse defence keeping city out.
SO what about us?
DO we need to win every game from now until the end of the season ?
Or how many points do we need from our remaining 7 games?
The Run in

don't discount Liverpool from the race just yet! they're on a good run, have the best strike partnership in the division and us and City still have to go to Anfield
City have the hardest run in on paper anyway, Aguero will be a miss. they'll drop points at Anfield imo and i'd like to think United will be able to get something against them, they're looking better ad Rooney does have a good record against City having said that i'd still tip City to beat Arsenal. plus they have no extra competitions to distract them
if the Villa match is anything to go by i still think we're more likely to drop stupid points than City/Pool

Pool may be suspect defensively but still scoring goals!
also, going to get lambasted for this but are Arsenl out of it yet? only game left i'd bank on them dropping points in is Man City this Saturday. they've only really struggled against the big teams

I still think if we can get 86 points we are in with with a good shout, perhaps because of our inferior GD we need 87, not sure...........but I am going to stick to saying that 5 wins and 2 draws from our last 7 games should do it

click..........you are looking at it from a single critrion, what about their injuries, what about their mental fragility what about the fact thay they are behind the 8 ball chasing 3 teams, not 1 team............Arsenal have not got a prayer, it is over for them for yet another season..
They just need to ake sure they don't lose to Everton or they could be in a scrap for 4th
