Matilda Slot!

Our season, From our rival fan's perspective.

May: Liverpool are done once Klopp leaves
July: It’s only pre-season
August: Slotball looks boring
September: Slot’s enjoying a honeymoon
Early October: They haven’t played anyone yet
Late October: The good opposition had injuries
Early November: shows how overrated Klopp was
Late November: bent refs favour them all the time
December: “Weak league”
January: they’re about to be found out with the tough away games
February: rivals have injured players
March: They don’t pass the eye test

Apparently Botman is out for the cup final too.

You forgot “ they haven’t played anyone above them “ or is that for May

March: the league + champions league + league cup is NOT the treble

A maximum 18 points needed now IF Arsenal were to win their 11 games if I’m not mistaken.

Arsenal are averaging 2 points per game which if they maintained that llevel to the end of the season would see them finish on 76, if they increased that to 2.5 points per game that would get them to 82. Obviously they could do better than that as you say get a max of 87, I think that would be a surprise, I think around 82 or 83 will be enough to win it this year

Yep I’m right

As things stand, Arsenal can earn a maximum of 87 points if they win out. While that seems unlikely, given their inability to win more than three league matches in a row this season, it’s not completely outside the realm of possibility.

So, for Liverpool to finish on 88 points, that’s 6 wins and 3 losses, or 5 wins, 3 draws, and a loss, in their last 9 matches. That’s just a 2 points-per-game, a pretty significant drop off from their 2.41 points-per-game pace from the first 29 matches.

Importantly, this isn’t even taking into account what Arsenal do. As such, Liverpool’s “magic number” of 18 points, is both points won by the Reds and points dropped by the Gunners. Should Arsenal fail to win away to Manchester United and/or at home against Chelsea, that number will be anywhere between 12 and 16 points.

Who would have thought, at the start of the season, this is where we would be?

Miles clear in the league, in the carabao final, and in the CL knockouts

Really thought this season would be a tough top 4 fight for us - whatever happens next season, this will be one to remember

[spud_gun]

At the start of the season I don't think even our most optimistic fan, Buzzo?, would have dared suggest the season would have played out the way it has.

Yep, I’m glass is half full AF.

But no chance I saw this coming. Was full of doubt about Arne and mourning Klopp. It’s been an unbelievable effort from the club on every level. It was easy to forget we came close last season and this is effectively the exact same squad. The unknown factor was Slot and kudos to the club for seeing that his profile was perfect for us.

Yep, so many doubts on Slot following a legend like Klopp but what a start

Read a super interesting article on how close Slot went to winning the league in the covid season with AZ Alkmaar before they cancelled the league for that season. So he really does have something about him
