I maintain that if City needed to beat us to win the title, they definitely would - we'd see something like what Madrid faced tonight. Assuming the title is sewn up, we'll at least have some hope, but as Guinness Boy says, their backup team will be immense too, and there's the danger they'll be fighting for a place in one of the finals.

Being 'streetwise' clearly means bugger all when you're playing against a side this good. This City team may be the strongest club side of the last 25 years, if not all time.

You need a three in a season performance. Brentford (amongst anyone) have done it, we definitely can too.

Just watched it on 'watch from start', a great facility these days for games you don't know the score of.

In the 40 odd years I've been watching the game I don't think I've seen a English league team as good as this.

The irony is that I still think we could take something off them next week if they sow things up this weekend.

One of most outstanding performances I have ever seen. I along with others not keen on ownership but not only are they brilliant in building a team they know when to sell players. It is not just about buying players because I think end of last season they had the largest income from sale of players.

They are clearly a brilliant team with a brilliant manager and players, tarnished by an unpleasant and scheming ownership

That’s it. Like everyone, I can’t stand their ownership but to me, Pep is the greatest manager of all time and in Grealish, KDB, Bernardo Silva and Haaland they’ve got some of my favourite non Albion players. An absolute joy to watch.

Hats off to them, what a performance.

Now lets have a torrid performance at the Amex after you secure the title this weekend

WE CAN WIN
