Man City to win the EPL ??????

Ok maybe this wont happen, but they do have a good team, and could very easily finish in the top 4, replacing either Liverpool or arsenal

Divn't be silly...

I think someone is on crack.

No, I don't think there is much chance of this happening just yet. They are definitely heading in the right direction but I think it is too optimistic to expect them to get in the top four this season. If they qualify for Europe this season they will have done well and that should be a more realistic aim this season.

But why?? apart from the big 4 teams, they are just as good, if not better than the rest. Only team that i think maybe better is Newcastle, and even then, man city's attack is just as good

Bojinov, Bianci, and that African dude (forget his name, but set up that super second goal) are all top players who will rip it up in the EPL this season

There are too many strong teams for them to get in the top four - just yet. Though if they build on what they are creating now, and don't sack Eriksson at the first chance, then maybe yeah.

I think he is on something worser

It will still take a while for all the players to settle in at the club and for everyone to find their feet and get accustomed to their new tactics and style of play. They've improved their squad a lot but they are still not a better side than Newcastle or Spurs in my opinion, or maybe even Everton. I see no reason why they can't finish in a UEFA cup spot, but they do not have the quality to finish in the top four yet.

Even i dont think we have a chance at finishing in the top 4. I would be very happy to get top 6 but that will be very difficult in Svens first season. The win against west ham was a brilliant result but its just the first step and we have to build on this result starting tomorrow night Vs Derby.

The squad needs a lot of reshaping and this will take time, but i think under Sven we are going in the right direction.

3 voters for yes already....

I disagree … Quality they got, what they might not have is depth

They have some young players who I think will do awesome, and don’t be surprised if they join big clubs next season

Any way, last season this is how Liverpool (3rd) Arsenal (4th) and Tottenham (5th) finished

Liverpool - 38 20 8 10 68
Arsenal - 38 19 11 8 68
Tottenham - 38 17 9 12 60

I seriously think they can win more than half there games, and if they do, will get a top 4 spot.

dude whatever drug you take it must make you hellucinate even city fans know they aint got a chance of top 4 . first you tell us the EPL is an aweful league which lacks quality and now your telling me city will finish top 4 no disrespect to city fans but this aint going to happen as you all know .

tonigol i think your just having a an absolute wind up actually makes me laugh

so if they beat man U .. what will you say then?

derbys can go any way at all id be happy to see them do that but id bet my life they dont finish anywhere near man u end of season on points. so it dusnt matter

NOPE! I'm staying with my original picks. Liverpool to win the league, AND Citeh to finish 5th.

Maybe next year Citeh can break the stranglehold of the "big four". The media unfairly (well they just don't know football do they) criticize Sven while he was coaching England. Truth of the matter is that Sven did all he could with the talent he had. I've said before, and I'll say it again SVEN OVERACHIEVED WHILE COACHING ENGLAND.

It's not his fault the media write BULLSHIT like "England have 7 or 8 world class players plus Rooney".

In reality England don't have ONE world class player. True story!

They didnt win the EPL the last time they beat Man Utd

Citeh will finish 5th! I said that as soon as Sven was named Citeh's coach.

Neither did Liverpool or arsenal (20 points behind actually) but they still finished in the top 4

@ Puro
Newcastle and big Sam may suprise you for 5th

tottenham can't be written off for 5th they have a very good side . yeah theve had a slippery start but their come back from it . city will try and get in the uefa cup for me no more

I also expected Newcastle to be in the top 8 Brian. We shall see who gets 5th place this season. I've got Citeh though.

Top 10.

I only just saw this!

tonigol is on fire!

Sven has always been a brilliant coach, and yeah he can do wonders at City. But I think it will take time, give him 3 seasons and City will be playing CL

This season, I am sure he will be more than happy with a top half finish. He has made very shrewd signings (as usual) and might even aim for UEFA Cup qualification.
