Title Race

As it stands Chelsea are much more likely to finish top, we are relying on them slipping up and hoping that we don't. I'm quite relaxed about it, I don't expect us to win the league anyway. If Chelsea won the league and we came second or third or even fourth I would be happy with that. In a few more games I might dare to dream.

[S-RED]

But they have to come to Anfield, there's three points !

[Norbs]

If we can keep up and snatch a win against them then it's jet a point. I'm keeping faith that we can do it

[TheElephantMan]

I'm not banking on a win against Chelsea. It would be lovely, but that's going to be a very difficult game.

[RichC]

Mourinho will take a draw I'd imagine; he'll set up to not get beat.

[Chazza]

Yep they will know we have to win, look to soak up the pressure and hit us on the counter.

[RichC]

Indeed. Certainly winnable but he will make it damn tough for us.

They tried that at the bridge but they had to come out when Skrtel scored.Hopefully they won't have a ref to help them this time.

[S-RED]

But we'll batter them, if he comes to defend. they won't last 90mins with how we are playing going forward.

[Leyton388]

So there's now 2 Europa league places available for 5th & 6th after city's win.

[Slinky Skills]

Confidence is high.

I repeat, confidence is high.

[Liverpool]

So there's now 2 Europa league places available for 5th & 6th after city's win.

aye hopefully we can squeeze in top 6

I've been really confident about this team and the direction we've been going in for a good 12 months now, and I really don't think if we do miss out by a few points I'll spend any time looking back thinking "what might have been" at all. I'll be looking at next season thinking "**** yeah, bring them on"!

This isn't like 08/09 when Rafa's team, that he'd been building for 4 years and taken to 2 EC finals etc was at the peak of its curve and we went into the season believing we could challenge. Not one single person on this site or anywhere else can have believed last summer that we'd be in this position with 10 games left. There's no need for nerves or anxiety, we're overperforming for once and it is flipping glorious fun to experience in a way that only the 2005 Istanbul cup run is on a par with in recent memory. Don't overthink it, just enjoy it I say

I know but we're going to drop points eventually, I was hoping Everton/Fulham would have got something

We will drop points, but so will they. Can't see any team winning every game left. If we beat Chelsea & City at home, we'd be essentially 1 point behind them. Not a massive issue. What isn't easy is beating them both at home.
