I've been reading all the comments about Villa's impact on Sunday. I don't think it helps them that they have to play on Thursday before Sunday, but that's the way it goes. It will take a miracle for Gerrard's boys to get anything out of the City game, because City is going to throw absolutely everything at that game. But, I'm consoled by the fact that there's no chance Gerrard will allow his players play like there's nothing at stake. Whether they pull it off or not is anyone's guess, but I know Gerrard's boys will be fired up, no questions about that. Coutinho will be up for it; Ings will be a nuisance. Those boys will play like their lives depend on it; Stevie will make sure of that.
If it doesn't go our way at the end, we'll hold our heads up high, chase absolute perfection and go for the quadruple next year!
What a season we've had! Sp proud of this team that was written off by pundits aplenty before the start of the season.
Walk on. YNWA!

I am looking at it like this. If Man City defence looks only half as disorganised and panicky as it did against West Ham, Villa's attackers will be relishing the challenge.

Also thinking stranger things/ miracles have happened - the comeback in Istanbul. the comeback against Barcelona.

That big boned lady with the slow metabolism might have another verse in her yet!

I think there is no point in thinking about the city game. All we can do is win our game and hope for the best.

OP, we have no pressure right now. We weren’t supposed to win the title anyway so nothing has changed. People said for weeks on here that they couldn’t see City dropping points despite them actually dropping point and then when they had a chance to ice the league, Mahrez bottles the penalty.

The pressure is on City, not on us. Why? We were not supposed to win the title. City are. If they win then, it’s expected cos that was supposed to happen. If we win then, it’s a huge upset. And one more thing: Everything I just said, Pep, his players and City fans know it too. I’m relaxed.

I'm really looking forward to Sunday. Aside from the obvious importance, it'll be the first time ever that I will be looking simultaneously at 2 games, plus keeping a watchful eye on the multiple meltdowns, heart attacks, hysterics and gymnastics on the live chat. 💪🏽.

In fairness the people who said City wouldn’t drop points in hindsight were clearly wrong. But the people who are calling those posters out are the same ones that said we wouldn’t drop points and they were also wrong. As they say 2 wrongs don’t make right so not sure why people are almost gloating about it.

I am fluctuating between excitement and despair. The excitement of all the Liverpool connections in the Villa squad doing us a massive favour and the the despair of remembering Tyrone Mings will be playing.

I will concentrate solely on the Liverpool game and enjoy the last home game of the season. City will be out of site by half time in thier game. Hopefully we can take a few key players off to rest them for the 28th come the hour mark when City score their 4th. Its horrible that it isn't in our hands but there's no point torturing ourselves with fantastcile fairy tales of a former player coming back to manage a team that defeats our rivals. I think we will run riot ourselves against Wolves can't wait to see it. But as for City, they will do the same. I expect 5-1 to be the score in that game.

JK23, wind your neck in, bro. At no point did I call anybody out for anything, gloat about anything nor did I say anyone was wrong to say they did not see City dropping points. If you inferred that then, that is a You-problem, not mine.

That was their opinion at the time even tho, I didn't agree. All I was saying is that many on here did not see them dropping points and YET they did vs WH therefore, anything can happen vs Villa hence, I'm relaxed. Be sure to know the difference before you get on your soapbox and start lecturing others based on you projecting your own interpretation on others.

Oli read the post again.

I said people. If it was aimed directly at you i would have said Oli.

I didn’t articulate the post that well but if you interpreted it was aimed directly at you then that’s a You problem not mine.

Plus for future reference I won’t be winding anything in so probably save yourself time by trying to tell me too from your soapbox 👍.
