City will draw at Crystal Palace. I think this will be their first dropped points since Everton.

I thought they'd lose at Liverpool. But I sense now that they won't. Liverpool is the only true fire for fire competitior left and I reckon City will be up for that game. So I don't see a loss at Pool.
Loss at Either Spurs or Arsenal is more likely. If I were to guess, I'd say at Arsenal.

Then a loss to a mid level team, Burnley or Bournemouth. Maybe a draw against United, and another away draw at Spurs.

I see 2 loses and 3 draws. Unless major injuries hit key players.

How about the elite teams play football? I miss the old EPL where it didn't matter how they lost. Imagine Man U vs Arsenal back in the day? Imagine Liverpool vs Man U back in the day? Those guys would play their hearts out on the field. But these days teams care about how they look losing. That's one of the reason I lost interest in soccer.

In fairness, Spasood Abdul Al Fahim bil Al Alkkhkh, has atleast a few year under the City blue. One can recall mocking his pathetic Mesopotamia back in the Rapebinho days.

Kick De Bruyne in the nuts!
Seriously though, teams show City way too much respect in games. A team playing both KDB & Silva in CM with Otamendi & Stones/Mangala in CD should be exposed way more often defensively. Its like these other EPL teams show up trying not to concede 4 goals rather than playing football.
City have been undeniably brilliant this season but let's not forget 4 games won by Sterling with goals well past 90 mins. We could be singing a different tune

Watch this and learn if you want to beat City - kudos to Pep. He has put in a lot of hard work and I love true professionals. My respect for Mourinho also increased a bit more after watching this unbiased analysis but he needs to be more ruthless with the players. Ruthlessness is Sir Alex’s slight edge.
