The Golden boot winner might not have made the shortlist for Player of the year. Has that ever happened before?

Flighting for golden boot, those two are gonna be greedy ******** now. 
I think City are going to drop points. Their winning streak has been going on so long it is getting more and more statistically likely to fail.
I wonder if they would set a record if they did pull it off?
Edit - they are on 11 wins but set a record of 18 straight victories last year :0
Mane?!
Typical one season wonder.
10 minutes aside where we seemed a bit surprised by Huddersfield's willingness to press high up and got a bit sloppy, that was a really good performance. After a really promising first month of the season Keita struggled with injuries and our change of formation and his form tailed off but for the last month or so now he's been playing well and he was excellent today. Both defensively and offensively he stood out, making last ditch challenges when Huddersfield got forward but also leading our press in attack too. Hopefully we see more of that in these last few games and into next season.
Great to see Ox back and even better to see him look as sharp as he did when he did come on.
They went 1-0 down after 15 seconds so their game plan went out the window but still, our biggest attacking threat was from our fullback positions. 2 assists for Robertson, 1 for Trent and even Henderson's assist for Mane's 2nd goal, he pulled into the RB slot. In these sorts of games our fullbacks are as important to our attack as they are our defence.

How many assists was that for Trent and Robertson today?
