90+5 min City look likely to end the day two points clear, and it’s hard to see anyone catching them from there, not because it’s impossible, unprecedented or anything close, but it’s so rare to see a challenger win the title from behind. City did it in 2012 but they’re a much better side than the United one that collapsed and they still needed a head-to-head to make it happen; Arsenal did it in 1998, but City aren’t getting the injuries United had then.

I have thought very often of Agueroooo! It was said then that if City didn't win the League then, they would never win it. Ian Wright tweeted about bravery. A team needs courage finally to get over the hump. City had courage that year and that led to a jewelry store of trophies that never would have been without that first one.
