Liverpool's title?!!

Don't worry lads and lasses, if Liverpool win the league it's only because the other teams all had issues and a poor season :D. 

 

This season, we've seen the reigning Champions ravaged with injury, one of the so called top 4 unable to sign new players, two of the traditional top 6 club's form drop so badly that they're competing for mid table mediocrity, little old Leicester become the nearest challengers (because the rest of the league is so bad :thumbup:), Arsenal ran by a bunch of muppets, and a newly promoted side containing David McGoldrick and Billy Sharp gatecrashing the top 6. Replace the drug doping conspiracy theories with VAR doping and we have our new story for why Liverpool were crowned Champions of the Premier League. 

 

The reality is somewhat different however and the media will put an alternative spin on it. They'll be heralded as the best Liverpool team ever who competed in the richest league in the world with the standard being so high that the world's most expensive defender was only ever able to dream about playing in Europe the following season, whilst overcoming a conspiracy to derail them with fixture congestion. They'll be calls to permanently etch Jurgen Klopp's face on to the Premier League trophy, the West End will see the launch of Liverpool The Ballet featuring Sadio Mane performing the Fish Dive, and the Xmas 2020 number one selling DVD will be the Stockley Park Liverpool 19/20 Season Review.

Fabinho being out could be huge news for us! Just about to hit the busiest part of the year and Liverpool losing probably their best player so far this season for those games might be the point where the door is opened.

 

Realistically to have any chance we have to beat them at the KP on boxing day, but it's certainly not beyond us to do so.

Liverpool's game against us is their 9th in 26 days... That's 1 game in less than every 3 days

To be fair, one of those games will be an U23's fixture for Liverpool. So realistically it's their 8th match. Still, pretty much a game every 3 days. However, we are in the same position more or less. And arguably, our squad is much lighter.

 

December will be make or break for a lot of teams, including ourselves. If we are still comfortably in the Top 4 by 3rd January, then it is looking very good for the season.

Liverpool have fallen over the line in so many games this season, half would say that's how you win titles and that's true, half would say that has to catch up with you at some point.

Also they just aren't as good at the back as last season, 2 clean sheets so far in the League.

 

Do believe they will drop points in December.

If we have any chance we HAVE to turn them over down here on Boxing Day and in the meantime pick up 10-12 pts in the next 4 games ideally.

 

Think Liverpool and Man C are more vulnerable this year than last.

Let's take advantage and apply some pressure, a number of the squad have been in a title race and WON!!!

Waiting for Klopp to blame it on Hamza.

Don't blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the Choudhury....

 

he just can't
He just can't
he just can't control his feet...

We're going to have to beat them on Boxing Day, that's clear. Their matches until that point are Everton and Watford at home, Bournemouth away. Can't see any dropped points there. We're probably going to need to beat Man City away too just before Christmas.

 

We're having to win every game to keep up some sort of pace. The title is a long way off and until we have the chance to play Liverpool I can't see it changing.

Let’s just enjoy the season and try not to get too caught up in a title race, to be second in December is in itself a great achievement, as would a top 4 finish.

Champions league spot and a cup would be a superb season but it would be hilarious to sleep walk into another title race :D

If, when we play Liverpool at the KP, we not only turn them over but include Hamza to crock a couple of their key players, then hope is not all lost.

That's not a bad idea. The mere mention of Hamza on the team sheet will send Kloff into shock horror. Not to mention some of their team worrying about getting injured.

It might just be the edge we need along with a good performance.
