I will be the first to admit after 15 games last season Pep met his match, and maybe he wasnt as good as his CV suggested.... Well, it looks like it took him one season to get himself a squad to blow what is regarded the hardest league to win away... they are playing fabulous football, and although I dont support them, its an absolute pleasure to watch them play.... Chrisb must be loving life....

I have been absent from ABC for ages but yes, am loving life thanks. City are playing some amazing football and having started watching them in 1968 and going through all the ups and downs I am just sitting back and enjoying the ride. Took a double earlier in the season - League and Champions League.

On a different note there are some brilliant young players coming through academies at various clubs. Congratulations to the U17 on winning the World Cup.

Arsenal next and it should be a cracker. Two good footballing sides.

Chris

Looks like only the 24 game unbeaten run of United 2010 (best start of Premier league season) that tops this 16 game run from City.
With the traffic coming up now and December it'll be tough to beat!

Arsenal team selection suggests that Wenger does not think that his team can win. Two left backs playing centre back, two holding midfielders. No natural striker selected.

Every away game this season, except Liverpool, have the officials cost us. At Stoke the ref denied Arsenal 3 stone wall penalties plus the Lacazette goal. At Watford their penalty was a blatant dive. Today the 3rd goal was offside. We were playing well at the time and even though City missed two sitters we were still in the game. In the end City deserved to win.

The sooner they bring in video replays the better

Yet again the ref bottles it never a foul on Jones and it denies Chelsea a goal, in the next 85 minutes you will see fouls 100 times tan that faint touch and the ref will let it go. Chelsea robbed

9/4 West Ham to go down especially with Moyes now as manager. Cant see them staying up as they cant win at home.
