Not at all. Stoke looked like threatening until we got the second. And I'm just being realistic with out chances for the title. We have a decent chance, but Man City have a better squad and are right behind, whilst Man U have better attacking threat, are right behind and have no European football, so will get the jump on us come Feb/March. It's not like I'm worried we're gonna drop the title whilst 11 points clear with 5 games left (a la Ebo 2013).

I wouldn't worry about us at all tbh. You are right in that we have an easy run of games post NYD, but that's followed by an absolutely horrific March/April. A lot of them are away as well (we still have to visit Goodison, Anfield & the Bridge) and Van Gaal seems a bit clueless away from OT

I think if you can build up momentum and get some key players back, you'll get through it okay.
Very happy with today's win, Britannia is an absolute nightmare of a ground but we dug in and got a result.
