Thanjk you.
Paul.S
The most difficult thing to fathom about all this is in such a short space of time, we've become a team that is seriously feared.
I still look at the fixtures thinking oooooh City, ooooh Chelsea...those'll be tricky while the truth is that they're both probably ****ting themselves about the thought of coming to Anfield at the moment.
I think that shift of being underdogs to dominators/destroyer of souls has still to settle in
We've got a good record against City and Chelsea at home, even when we weren't so good.
Southampton (a)
Manchester United (a)
Cardiff (a)
Sunderland (h)
Tottenham (h)
West Ham (a)
Would be expecting another 14-16 there. Cardiff away and Sunderland at home are ones I'd be gutted with less than 3 points. So it leaves 8-10 to get from Spuds at home, and 3 mid-table away games.
so this is it - the final time we can use this thread
the remaining 6 league games.
West Ham - 0 - 1 - scrappy, tight nervy win
Man City - - 2 - 0 - blow them away
Norwich - 2 -5 suarez hattrick standard,
Chelsea - 1 - 0 - Gerrard penalty which sends mourinho over the edge
Crystal Palace - 0-3
Newcastle - 5-0
Champions
Christ only six left, and yet I'm not sure my heart can survive that many games
West Ham - Win, they have little to play for now.
Man City - Draw
Norwich - Big win Suarez to destroy them again again
Chelsea - Small win
Palace - small win
Newcastle - Destruction!
Would give us a good chance for the title, but need City to drop points. We need 15-16 from the last 18 to be in it I reckon. With a bit of luck drawing both the City and Chelsea game 14 could be enough, but I think we need to win at least 1 of them. 16 will give us 87.
City remaining:
Southampton H - win
Liverpool A - draw
Sunderland H - big win
WBA H - win
Palace A - win
Everton A - draw
Villa H - win
WH H - win
Leaving them with 87 and then we will loose the title because of the internal record against City this season! Really need them to drop an unexpected point somewhere and us winning it all.
Chelsea:
Stoke H - Win
Swansea A - Draw
Sunderland H - Win
Liverpool A - Lose
Norwich H - Win
Cardiff A - Win
13 points in the last six (hope) leaving them at 82 points. So even if they win against Swansea it will be okay if they just get hit at Anfield!
All in all, I would say Chelsea have the easiest program left of them all, and if they can win against us they have a good shot at the title. City have it all in their hands, Everton away the most difficult really but all winable for City now - and they can easily do with a draw against us.
City have big games to play you've got the likes of Sunderland, Palace & West Brom all looking to beat the drop so they'll be fighting for their lives and Everton will be looking to take 4th from Arsenal so again they've still got something to play for.
I can see City dropping a couple of points somewhere we don't expect them to. I'd love it if it was this weekend against Southampton but I can't see it
We also have games against Palace and Norwich so it evens out a bit I reckon. Same with Chelsea, although Norwich probably is away before their game against them.
Chelsea have the by far easiest run in now except us away.
Chelsea certainly have the easiest run, if we can beat them though that will really hamper their chances to take the league.
It's going to be such a tight run into the title
they do have the easier run league wise - but out of the three their level of performance and form is dropping and there is the champions league - at a bare minimum they have two tough games against PSG that will effect them mentally and physically,
i'm hoping they scrape through PSG as it will just give them that added distraction
personally i think we can afford to draw against chelsea - it's the city game that's huge
i own everton fans on the internet....that's what i do
