Title Race

Happy to see we can still boss games. Specially away too.

Sturridge will be hurting enough to take it out out on Swansea.

I wasn't really all that bothered about the result today - I didn't want us to be outplayed (we weren't) and I didn't want a replay (we managed to avoid that too). I would have taken that result before the game. Really not bothered about anything other than finishing in the top four now for this season.

If Everton can hold Chelsea next week then we could go into March 3 points from the top

Then we play Chelsea in March... **** we can actually do this...

If we have a full squad of defenders then it's about time we went in a bit hard and collected some yellows in return for clean sheets.

[Fosterbloke]

Unlikely but if -

City draw at Stoke
Chelsea draw at Everton
Arsenal lose to Sunderland

We go to 2nd place and 2 points behind the leaders! ****...

Minimum requirement for Rodgers now is 4th place, otherwise there will be a lot of people joining the Rodgers out brigade.

12 games from greatness?

This! ****ing exciting but I hope we're still well in the hunt with 3 games to go.

4th Means nothing.

ManUre have nothing left this season other that the Champions League, and if they should win it, they would take the 4th place spot, possibly at our expense.

That's why we really need to look to third place in order to be secure in qualification .

This may not be as far fetched, as the Mancs would love to screw us over, I can imagine the extra incentive could fire the players and crowd further. Who have the Mances got... Olympiakos? Tough draw there.

your on drugs you are.

Tbh we have higher chances of wining the title than Mancs wining the Champions League

Damn straight. What's the odds of the scum winning the CL?

My apologies to Charly for laughing so much as I know what you were saying regarding 4th not being a guarantee, but this year it is IMO.

12 games to dream. There will be much cursing and if-onlys. There will be some blissful sleep. Unlike 08/09 it's not ours to lose. But it's ours to win!! We are back!

For comparison, in 08/09 we were 7 points behind after 26 games.

Hahaha these pics really make me laugh for some reason

Hopefully tracksuit ****** Sherwood will be overtaken by Moyesie for 5th

And looking at the stats for the last 4 or 5 seasons we'd have to have a monumental slide in fortunes to not make the top 4 (at least)
