You have to contextualise the 'collapses' of the previous two seasons. Last season we headed into the last 9 games having to go to Anfield, the Etihad and Newcastle. The season before it was Chelsea, Spurs and Newcastle. This season it is City, Spurs and United. '
Tough games and key injuries made the job too difficult in the last two seasons. And we are facing the same tough games this time, battling two sides who may well not lose many points from here on in.
If we lose at City I think we will struggle to make up the points. We need to go there and win, purely to prove to ourselves and everyone else that we can.
