How Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool players respond to the spikes and dips that lie ahead will decide this season's title battle
When you’re competing for a league title it’s like walking around with a constant, irritating companion. Wherever you go, whatever you do, it’s right there with you, chirping away. You go to bed and it infiltrates your brain. You toss and turn because sleep doesn’t come. It’s the first thing you hear when you finally wake up. There’s no hiding place from that piercing, nagging voice forever reminding you exactly what’s at stake.
It won’t be perfection for City, Liverpool and Arsenal over the next two months because life is rarely like that. It’s about learning to live with those hiccups — it’s not the end of the world, so you move on. At Blackburn, every setback would be fuel for that little voice: “Oh my god, we’ve f***ed it, we’ve messed up, game over.” I told anyone who would listen I couldn’t care less what Manchester United did.
