Thanjk you.

I'm not sure whether I want Chelsea to batter City, City to batter Chelsea or a draw, before City play us...
Having seen Chelsea’s run of league games after City, I’ve concluded that they’re looking like they’re going to have a run of at least 6 wins on the bounce. And that, given our games over the same period, will likely make it extremely hard to keep pace with them, points-wise. Not to mention the absolutely enormous belief and momentum they’d get from beating City and then winning 6 in a row.
We don’t know how they’ll react from a setback but if they don’t get one against City, they ain’t getting one for a long while.

For that reason, I want City to beat them.
I think that logic is sound. Although if City were to hammer Chelski 4-0, what would that do to City’s confidence? But I think you’re right. If City win, we just need to beat them to go clear….
It's a tough one. We know City can go on a run of 20+ straight wins and probably will, whereas Chelsea still need to prove they are capable of that (definitely see them drawing a few when things don't fall for them).
City win, draw, Chelsea win in that order although positives and negatives to all outcomes.
If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?
On the Keita injury, Klopp added: “At half-time we had to change because Naby had kicked the grass, and it was a little uncomfortable, but we are not too concerned.
“With Curtis in the half-space and Tyler Morton as a No.6, it looked much more natural immediately.
'Kicked the grass' made me smile.
Interesting what Klopp said about the midfield when Mortan came on.
