Burnley, there some delusion here that they can hold City, a team who have conceded 62 goals this season, only the bottom 3 have had more go in against them. Yeah they have had a decent month, but beating Cardiff and a average Bournemouth isn't too great, ok they did get a draw with Chelsea but they are hit and miss as well, in March they lost 3 out of 4 games, but all of a sudden the talk sport pundits think City can be stopped by them?


its called clutching at straws.

after all , talk shabite is mainly operated by former rs players, well it seems to be anyrate
 
The Dutch FA cancelling all Eredivisie fixtures this weekend to accommodate Ajax while Spurs play a huge London derby against West Ham tomorrow and play Ajax on Tuesday.

Liverpool play the a bunch of no hopers tonight, they'll barely have to even turn up to win by a cricket score and yet don't play until Wednesday.

For neutrals, Spurs vs West Ham at least promises a game while Liverpool vs Huddersfield only promises to be a foregone conclusion.

Incredible scheduling to put the team with the easy stroll and the longest break before the CL semis tonight and the team with the titanic battle with local pride and special rivalry tomorrow. Hardly anyone other than rs fans will watch tonight anyway.

The European leagues, uncompetitive as they usually are anyway, don't half have an advantage over the premier league clubs, even if despite this the premier league clubs have largely dominated Europe this season.
 
Think 5-0 for them tonight sadly,city to win 2-1 at Burnley sunday,and again next week liverpool playing 1st [sat at the toon] meaning city have to play catch up game wise again [at Leicester on the monday]

SKY control the fixtures now, they get what they want and the footballing authorities curtsy and grovel whilst they do it
 
Oh I definitely think Wolves will be tough for Liverpool, but I also think Leicester will be tough for City

The league could hinge on those two games


City have a long break before their last home game vs Leicester, plenty of time for a full and in depth preparation both mentally and tactically.

The match will mean literally everything to City, they'll be right up for it. Conversely Leicester on the back of a disappointing defeat and a draw before this weekend, will likely have virtually nothing to play for, only a very outside chance of 7th and the highly dubious reward or rather poisoned chalice that MAY bring, if other results and the cup final go their way, one they might even rather do without.

Only one winner there, and a very comfortable one imo.

Burnley away because it comes right at the end of such a congested period of games, with preparation limited and players almost certainly carrying niggles or injured (kdB), against opponents in the best form of their whole season looks far more testing to me.

Liverpool's involvement in the CL makes the game at Newcastle extremely tough, I also see Wolves possibly proving an obstacle too far.
