I wouldnt worry, the way this match has played out most of us could leave our houses right now, take a leisurely walk to the pub and still end up catching a goal or two.

rachhere Posted 26 April 2019 Share Posted 26 April 2019 Nice to see how strong The Ox has come back. Find him a bit annoying but it was an awful injury. Still wish we could have got Shaqiri... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danizen Posted 26 April 2019 Share Posted 26 April 2019 (edited) Liverpool have got TEN more points than we had when we won the league, two games to go and they're still not favourites to win the league.

Popular Post ScouseFox Posted 27 April 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 27 April 2019 had a discussion yday about the fact this is actually probably the most boring “title fight” i can remember. it feels like both teams have won pretty much every game since the beginning of time and are expected to win every game until the final whistle. theres not even been many dramatic wins. that own goal by spurs at anfield is about the only “crikey” moment i can remember from the second half of the season. and it presumably won’t count for much. go back through all the past seasons (when we’ve actually had a race) and you’ve got so many twists and turns, dropped points, comebacks etc. this is just two teams who are better than everyone else swapping places at the top based purely on kick off times due to tv coverage. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you're saying, 2012 was probably the last great title battle. Man Utd about 8pts ahead and Man City clawing it back with that Aguero moment. Not counting 2016 as, in reality, there was no title challenge to us from about March onwards. I know its unlikely but it would be good for neutrals to see, say, Newcastle drawing against Liverpool and us beating Man City for a bit of drama.

shailen Posted 27 April 2019 Share Posted 27 April 2019 It's not been as dramatic this season but it's been probably the best quality title race ever. Any team on 90+ points and not winning the league is incredible, which is what will happen to one of these two teams. Having said the above, the biggest dramatic moment ever will now be if one of these two clubs drop points now. Everyone thinks Man City are nailed on but Burnley then us are not easy games especially if they think the hard work is already done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can argue either way though - ‘the best quality’ could quite easily be viewed that the other teams are so uncompetitive and not full of much quality. I’m still scratching my head on how we took four points off the pair of them and should have taken something from the Liverpool game at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at it totally different.... I count 19 teams in the PL,a nd they are all part of them emxcitement,and all have their fate thrown around with those unknown devils,,controlling the wheels on all our twists & turns...Teams fearing the trap door,but finding like Newcastle , C.palace,and Burnley a decent form then 4-5 quality teams scrapping for that Covetted best of the rest 7 th position Top 3-6 fighting for their "entitled" European spot. Spurs the mongrels trying to mix it with the real big boys,but getting a black-eye running into March,again sitting pretty then the post bottle floats by...But still give a lesson to big-boy wanna-bes in Europe. inside all that, I have no grumpy old man attitude,this year's PL IMO is producing some great football and interesting entertaining factors!!

Spudulike Posted 27 April 2019 Share Posted 27 April 2019 The Championship is the place for excitement, tension and unpredictability. Not that I want us to be in it anytime soon. Been there, done that, don't want to have to do it again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this "lead has changed hands 20-odd times" is very misleading. It is only changing because they are kicking off at different times, both have won the last 7 games (I think?) each so it hasn't really changed since Liverpool drew with Everton in early March.
