Thought about AS's words while watching the Liverpool-City game yesterday, and in the second half thinking Liverpool would come up with the second goal. I thought City hung by a thread the last 30 minutes. But they split the points. Still a great game. I don't have any skin in the game and wanted someone to win.

Next weekend City plays Newcastle in the FA Cup, returning to League action on Sunday March 31 at home against Arsenal. That one will be huge. That same day, Liverpool will be at home against Brighton. But before then, Liverpool have an FA Cup match against man United. Arsenal are out of the FA Cup, but like City are still alive in the Champons League.
Spurs looked vulnerable in the first half at Aston Villa, but devastating in the the 2nd half en route to a big 4-0 victory that gives Tottenham a good chance of grabbing that 4th Champions League spot for next year. That's all Spurs have to play for, whie Villa are still in the Europa League (as are Liverpool, Brighton and West Ham. Arse and Nan City are still in the Champions League; hard to believe that played in this season's Champions League group stage, but the Red Devils crashed out hard.
Personally, I don't think Man City will win this season's EPL title, but I could be wrong. The Man City-Arsenal game should be an intense contest, but that's still a ways in the future.
I only saw the Spurs highlights, but heavens what a second half. I am hopeful Spurs overtake Villa for fourth over the next few weeks. Real disappointment at Villa about this game.
I agree: I am thinking City do not grab the EPL title. But quite a few important games to be played.
Burnley and Sheffield United seem firmly in the relegation zone. Out of Luton Town, Forest and Everton (noticed that Brentford are only a point ahead of the Toffies), not sure who heads south.
