Title Race 18/19

[Norbs]

In a nutshell

[baitman]

The funny thing is that we can still play much better than this. The stronger squad has made a huge difference with rotation. Every game now is huge... especially that City game. If we got a result there, it could really give us some breathing space. They have slipped up recently and last few games they have won, they've been lucky. Silva out has been a huge loss for them. For all the hype around them, there are chinks in their armour that have been exposed with recent weeks.

And every team who watch their videos prior to playing them will see them being a little flaky and having the odd wobble.
Hopefully it gives others some inspiration to go at them and as the season closes and teams are fighting for their survival it could expose them even further.

Has anyone in the league tried to take the game to us yet? PSG did and showed that we could be got at but no one else has had the balls to. I think we're more feared than City now, the tables have truly turned in our favour

[RedReet]

He's also a total luxury player. He has lots of pace and has been playing off some of the most creative players in the world at city. He's good at finding space but his best work isn't with the ball. His shooting technique is laughable and if he didn't get the number of chances that he does with city it would be a major liability. Most sides can't afford to scuff a few wide before scoring with the forth. His performances for England are a more accurate way to reflect his ability, and they show huff and puff, moments of excellence with average end product. He's doing a role well at city, but there aren't many sides that have a use for that role.

Nonsense Ken. You can't use the 'he plays for City' excuse, that's so weak. He's basically matching one of the best strikers in the PL for goals and outscoring the rest of his teammates, keeping some world class players on the bench. They all play for City. You claim he's benefiting from playing with the most creative players in the world, but he himself has created 7 goals already this year and 17 last year. What else do you expect from him, bar invent a time machine and wiping his time here from history.

I think this season represents our best chance. Next season Arsenal will be much stronger and chances are Utd will be spawny enough to mount some sort of challenge. Spurs should start to fade away without Poch, Kane, Alli and money

I dunno. This is the sort of thing that makes sense if we're playing above our level with all the planets having aligned momentarily presenting a fleeting opportunity. This is not like that - we can play better than we are now! Arsenal and Utd will have a lot to do to be stronger than us any time soon providing we maintain our level. We shouldn't feel like it's now or never. That type of 'only one chance' pressure isn't there, I expect us to have a real shot next season too, and the one after...

I've said this several times already, but I don't know, it's like a subconsciously, people expect us to drop off after that, because it's happened under Houllier, Benitez and Rodgers.

Thankfully, Klopp has experience of falling short, and managing to bounce back. He has the mentality. Wish some of our fans would have the same. I mean, after the Champions League Final loss, we're unbeaten in the league, and signed Gods in Alisson, Fabinho, Keita.

We're here to stay, whether we fall short this season or not. If we win the league this season, I expect a challenge again next season.

Plus we are usually better in the second half of the season, so....
