State of the title race

How many have actual relevance? Villa only came back up last season.

What do we want the situation to be at HT when City come in? I think we want us to be level so they don't feel like our match is a foregone conclusion. Maybe 0-0 in both games. Or would us being 2-0 / 3-0 up at HT really ramp up the pressure?

I'm putting all hopes on Villa snatching a draw but think 14% chance is generous!

 

[momoWASboss]

What do I want? Villa 3 up and city down to 10 plus de Bruyne injured. Us 6 nil up.

 

[keniget]

City will win easily unfortunately... don't do it to yourselves!

Fucking hell, is this true? That would be very much against the spirit of the sport.

Confirmed as bullshit by Richards himself.

Some clever dick is probably trying to unsettle some players

14% is the chance of us winning the title, not of City not winning. That's probably more like 20%.

I may be being stupid here, but how are those probabilities not the same?

If City don't win the title, then we do - surely the odds must be the same, no?

I meant of City not winning against Villa. Sorry, wasn't clear.

Ah, that makes more sense! Sorry, dumb moment...
