Favourites for the Title

[Dreambeliever]

Oh and Rafa with his “facts” can fuck off too.

Disaster 🙁

 

[Modo]

Don't believe the hype.
People tend to bring up that table of us failing to win the league twice despite topping the league on Christmas.
What you have to take into consideration is that the first time around it was a four horse race with Man U having two games in hand while we lead the league by one point over Chelsea.

The second time around we were ahead on goal difference. Then we played two difficult away games.

 

[SummerOnions]

If we are still top in a week or so, the league is ours

 

[tombrown]

Thats the fucking (Christmas) spirit Onions

 

[Frogfish]

Citeh are NOT "massive" favourites at all. Someone from Coral was just saying on the radio that, while Citeh are still a shade of odds-on at 4/5, we've now come in from 5/2 to 11/10 against. It's a real close race and the bookies know it.

City 1.9
Liverpool 2.1

Nothing in it. I loved those last 38 games stats someone posted - only 3 points between us over the past 38 games and we are the ones on the rise.

Yep.

United went away for the World Club Cup and had games in hand.

And the 2nd time, we had to play Chelsea away and City away within days, while we were only ahead on GD.

I think if we get 2 wins.

It'll be us Vs Spurs for the title.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Couple of days? I hated football for 2 years after

 

[tombrown]

Paddy Power now has us 4/6 with City 13/8 and Spurs 8/1

 

[Gary25]

We're winning it by at least 8 points

 

[Markeh]

I stuck £50 on us in July, the cash out is currently £161.

There will be no cash out

 

[Oncy]

Weve pulled back a 4point deficit and a 13 goal difference.

Thats fucking incredible considering who we are up against.

Fernandinho is without doubt the key to them winning. They are bang average without him.

Even with KDB (Patrick you quimlord)

 

[Halmeister]

Nope. Still not believing it.

 

[Fabio]

Nope. Still not believing it.

The wheels are gonna come off, it is the way things are

When is he back?

Going to lose to Arsenal. 100%

 

[HC]

We really need to brace ourselves for remaining unbeaten til after the city game..

If we come out of the city game with a 6pt or plus advantage on spurs and city having played two or the top 4/5 sides twice already ...then , well , shit might just get interesting.

On a side note, man city were fucking atrocious today , like shockingly bad , it was kind of nice to see , balances out the fact that spurs look brutal at the moment

 

[moron]

If we lose to them - we don't deserve the title. I want us to completely destroy them when they turn up and the crowd to give Dracula and his team a complete European style welcome.

 

[tomasjj]

Going to lose to Arsenal. 100%

I saw arsenal today. Not very impressed.
Need to watch Auba though.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

If we lose to them - we don't deserve the title.

Utter rubbish

 

[Halmeister]

The wheels are going to fall off Saturday. Arsenal win.

 

[Fabio]

I'm not sure

I mean, yes, my nethers is going again, but I think that's residue from the Newcastle tremors

Ask me again tomorrow, but so far the trembles are going to my coccyx

Arsenal will win - this time it's your mustache hair tingling ... the more you tingle, the more Liverpool jingle ... keep it up Mr. Good Luck Charm!

and Sterling got called offside incorrectly which I always hold as the real reason we lost the title...

 

[Hansern]

Hendo’s red card against City is the reason for me. We missed him badly.

 

[doctor_mac]

Fun factoid: Liverpool has conceded 7 goals in 19 PL matches. Manchester City has conceded 8 in the last 4.

 

[Squiggles]

I'll say it quietly, but if, IF, we can keep Alisson, VVD and Salah fit then we'll win the league.

 

[moron]

I'll say it quietly, but if, IF, we can keep Alisson, VVD and Salah fit then I do think we're going to do it.

@Squiggles - and big Fab - I know that Alisson can sometimes just throw the ball at Salah and he scores - but you need a midfielder to that spine.
