Of course it’s a must win esp if City beat Newcastle.
Regardless of semantics as a champion you must go into every game as ‘must win’. That’s the minimum standard. Stop making excuses for these guys.
Given the fact we have some adversity now (Oliver ref, our ‘cavalry’ not being back for NLD, Gabriel injury) this game is even more important than ever to win to ensure our momentum. It takes adversity + one bad loss to turn this whole thing on its head.
Must win, let’s get the 3 points, let’s keep going.
