This was an impressive win. Winning in London against the fifth place club--Erling frustrated and demoralized Palace with his 41' goal. Their goalkeeper later got a yellow card. Erling was given a PK anc converted They had had the better chances early, but they did not have Erling Haaland. The score line is impressive also. City are now two points back of Arsenal in second place and two goals ahead on difference. This would not be the first EPL title that was decided on goal difference. But as the undersigned has said and others more knowledgeable said today, these are the least impressive clubs at the top of the table in my memory. If ever a sporting outfit would be shamed by a win it was yesterday's Arsenal "victory" over Wolves, in which the latter scored all three goals lol. City have been a mid-table team in more than one match this season. Most times in any sport a title race comes down to who wants it most. This season in the EPL, it has been a race of who can fuck up the least.
