There is that side that have lost 17 premier league games in a row, yet to score a goal away, yet to keep a clean sheet, and conceed an average of 3 goals per game.

Surely that's an easy game, we should certainly beat them..

They routinely change their name every time they play us to ‘Manchester City Five’. Of course it is difficult as it is for ANY team who play them, but if you factor their ridiculous financial support against ours in terms of potential goals then five is brilliant result for us. As long as premier league allows this mismatch in clubs then it will be ever thus.

You're possibly right, but we don't spend 100m a transfer window and pay 100k a week wages, so we are not allowed to win.
Well that's what a few people have told me anyway, they must be some rule about it somewhere.
