        To be fair in the last few years the league champions have dropped very few points. All the teams challenging this year have dropped far more points than would have been expected in the previous few seasons.

                    We're talking about home matches and our failure to beat rubbish at home then talking about respecting weaker teams. Elvoz is right.

                    How many points have been dropped by previous league champions at home against weaker opposition?

                          There is a real arrogance in your posts and attitude voz, rage and one or two others I can't be bothered to mention.

                          We all believe we should be turning over teams like Hull, Fulham, West Ham etc, but you must understand not all of us think it is our divine right to win these games. What is so hard to understand about that?

                          This is an absolute joke of a thread. Really disappoints me when supporters are near on abused or shot down for having the gall to suggest that we should not take for granted that we will win every game against the so called smaller teams.

                          Arrogance is not a word I associate with Liverpool FC - if anything we have a humbleness and humility which is borne out of the general respect, yes respect, we show opponents in victory and defeat. FFS.

                          Unbelievable. Really.

                            My point is that such a discussion is probably not all that meaningful. My initial point is that this season so far has shown that the top teams are more likely to loose points home and away than in previous seasons. While there may well be a correlation with winning at home and winning the league there is also likely to be one between beating your immediate rivals and winning the league. Why focus on the former where we are doing badly rather than the latter where we are doing well.

                            We have to keep up our performance relative to the other top teams to win the league. That will probably mean getting better at home - not sure anyone is disputing that.

                            I talk about respecting the weaker teams before the games win or loose. I think it depends on what one means by respect really as to whether there is any point in this thread at all. We should acknowledge when other teams play well and accept that sometimes we will not win because of their over performance and not our poor performance. There is very little, possibly no, evidence that we should be achieving consistent many goals to nil victories which is what some people seem to expect. yes we should have an expectation of beating weaker teams more often but that doesn't seem to be antithetical to having respect for them to me.

                            I just think people are getting on their high horses trying to make out that their views are superior to others as they dislike a turn of phrase others used and want to be seen as somehow 'better' supporters. I think the whole discussion in those terms is tiresome and largely held for the purposes of self aggrandizement.
