"Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

[alekaras]

Apparently Leicester earned more in TV money from the CL that year than Real Madrid because they were champions and Madrid finished 3rd (?)

That would explain why they were able to afford such quality players as Ahmed Musa and Islam Slimani.

FWIW...

 

[Huddy]

Liverpool drop points, Everton should have taken all three with those missed chances at the end.

We just need 3 points now.

 

[Lemonade Money]

Result!

 

[Cochise]

A full strength Liverpool would've won. 3rd was ours to lose, but now we can afford a draw against City.

11 clear of the rent boys, 12 with GD really

Hmmm City lineup doesn't look like a side that hasn't got a little bit of an eye on the CL

Funny that...

Hey! Watch those double negatives.

But it seems they still have enough of an eye on this match

Second is definitely up for grabs chaps

I don’t think so, I think it’s got our name written all over it.

If City win today, do they let us win next week to push ManU further down the table?

Be worth it just to add fuel to the tire fire smouldering at Old Trafford.

They won’t need too, they’ll be off their tits still from winning the title against United and being in the CL semi after putting 7 past Liverpool.

We’ll beat them all on our own.

 

[greatwhitenorf]

Well, now that United have battled back, the first part of that equation remains to be seen.

 

[NaijaSpurs]

We really need to have a go at both defences over the next 2 weeks

 

[Gazza Dazzla]

I think we can definitely say City went for it!

 

[El Guepardo]

We really need to have a go at both defences over the next 2 weeks

Definitely. Both have flakey defences. United get away with it because of De Gea. City get away with it as most teams are scared to attack City, due to fear of what City’s team could do on the break.

 

[harr1984]

Think that’s second gone now realistically....

 

[NaijaSpurs]

Annoyingly Utd have a relatively easy run-in

Annoyingly Utd have a relatively easy run-in

All 3 teams chasing 2nd place do to be fair.
