I think we are going to lose.
Its been quite a few years since we have gone into any game that I dont think we will lose.
 
the kids versus Exeter. Not arsed. If it meant a higher league finish and maybe fourth due to less games and injuries, i would happily drop out.

I'm sick to death of knackered, tired players or just plain crocked players. A for squad and we would have been right up there pushing for a league that's easily winnable this year. Any more injuries and you can kiss fourth goodbye.

I think we can already kiss 4th goodbye. We'll need to go on a winning run and for United Leicester and Spurs etc to really slip up. Both highly unlikely.
 
Leicester won't make fourth. Their form has already started to dip and once the pressure is really on, they'll struggle. Spurs, arse and city are nailed on. Fourth will be between manu and another. Few wins and that could easily be us. Of course, he longer it goes on, the less likely that is. If we have another two or three dodgy results then yeh, it's unlikely for us to get fourth.

They've just taken four points out of six in away games with Spurs and a Midlands derby with Villa. They're also looking much better defensively. I'd say the last two games have convinced me more than ever they will make the top four and it's becoming increasingly difficult to rule them out of the title race.
 
Doubtful. We're playing Norwich at 1245 on Saturday. I think it will be a similar team to the one that started away. Maybe with a few first teamers. I'd like Ojo to start. And Ward if thats possible.

Lallana a doubt for this one with a "muscle problem" according to Klopp

I think Lovren is back for this game? I say we let Ibe - Allen - Teixeira have a go again, behind Firmino this time. They played well against Exeter and I'd like to see if they can keep that up or kick up a gear, this time against better opponents. I can see Klopp going with Ibe and Allen in Lallana's absence, but probably starting Milner instead of Teixeira.

Reminds me of the time a while ago when that bonehead John Hartson was talking about him on the radio and kept calling him Ibby, despite the fact that everyone else in the studio was getting it right.

The pronunciation of his surname does differ based on African vs Westernised, not all Ibes are said the same.

Hartson may well be a linguist

I believe following his testicular cancer operation his wife said he soon became quite the cunning linguist.

Might do, might not. It's impossible to tell at this stage. The very fact that they're up where they are is proof of that in its own right.

Everyone said they would fall away over Xmas and they stayed top.
Next 5 games are all tough but after that they have a pretty easy run until the last 2 games. The only side that could dislodge them is Utd and I don't see that happening
 
Not really fussed with the league after the Utd game. Top 4 is long gone. Id like to see the future given more game time.
 
Hopefully back to winning ways today. Shame Suarez isnt longer a Liverpool player, he loved playing against Norwich.

We'll have to score a couple today as its a given Naismith will score.

I'd go

Ming
Clyne Caulker Sakho Moreno
Can Henderson
Ibe J.Teixeira Lallana
Firmino
