Vincent Kompany’s unforgettable winner against Leicester had the feeling of a title-winning goal, the 70th minute strike releasing a flood of relief and celebration from the Etihad Stadium. The danger for Guardiola’s side now though, is that the race is not over just yet, with three points needed against Brighton to ensure the Premier League trophy stays put. After wracking up 100 points last season, City are on course to collect 98 points this campaign, which over the two seasons equates to an intimidating 2.6 points per game. A domestic treble remains on the cards for City. Benjy Nurick
