we still need 2 wins to secure the title if they drew or lost against WBrom

Right now as below assuming City win their 2 games in hand

3 points advantage over MC
5 points advantage over Chel

if MC drop any points you can add on the advantage accordingly based on points dropped.

As of now 2 win + 1 draw is sufficient to do the trick. Do remember MC do have superiority on GD over us.

how i missed that song!

are you guys ready with the champions league????

Hahaha enjoy it as long as we can but yes move on and don't dwell too long on it. Chances are in the coming years EPL will be like La Liga (where Barca rotates league titles with RM and the odd dark horse like AM winning it occassionally) but in this case it will be 3-teams vying (Reds, Blues (both light & normal) with Gunners as dark horse).

What Giggs said is true. Champions do not collapsed like that and in the golden words of Rafa, all great teams must be able to defend a 2 goal lead and see it through.

Instead of venting our fury at the critics, maybe it's better if we use Giggsy's words to motivate the team, recalibrate the defense and get a clean sheet next game.

Truth to be told, we are leaking goals like Tranmere Rovers.

I will try to wake up for the match. If I cant, well, sleep cursing is just as good as I just discovered last week

Mathematically speaking, if Manchester City draw against Brom and Palace, they will be on 73 points with 3 games left.
If Chelsea lose to us, they will be 75 points with 2 games left.

So if we beat Chelsea, 83 points for us and the title is ours.

Hahahah perhaps I should quote Reds to unleash the fury of their SSSSS machine on all comers that stand in their way

The trend in the past years is to win tough games 1-0. They are just as nailbiting as winning 3-2 or 4-3 or 2-1 which Liverpool is doing now. Perhaps now its a change because of the way we play. During the Rafa / GH era we lose out because we can't score nor come back while MU was slogging 1-0 wins (that Machedda kissed haunted me for a bit and insulting to Stevie G all the way if u had seen that).

That said, still no excuse for some of the defensive calamities we had. Not all can be blamed solely on the attacking philosophy BR is embarking on.

Or just wake up halfway like me and suddenly see them score like the earlier Chelsea match

LoL, it is still especially if you are still smoking something but surprised that someone know bout 420 here

*On yesterday's game, Lucas looks a bit lost when he run all the way up. I think he is not used to running into the box compared to Allen/Hendo? Suarez did looked rather disappointed as well when Lucas blow his second try there.

Looks like the only person left for Suarez to pass the ball to in a goal scoring opportunity is Sterling.

I'm worried that our keeper can't handle crosses well and our defense have a hard time dealing with teams that bombard crosses into the penalty box. Mignolet really needs to improve his reading of the game and handling the ball.

Yeah the way BR sets teams up, can see even Allen / Lucas got chance to get in box. Allen has improved since in this game his shot is on target. From past few games, where his shot is off target, to today and next couple of games on target, and to the future hopefully it becomes goals for him

Lucas still needs to catch up. (he got shot on target yes but at that range it'd be stupid if he cant get it on unlike Allen which needs to shoot at a faster pace and in angle).

Watch gerrard reaction to lucas giving away freekick.

Johnson had a bad game too.. not sure he will get a new contract..

Just wonder how much sterling is worth now.. if barkley is speculated at 38mill.. lol

There are usually more people when we are attacking; Allen/Cout/Johnson/Sterling etc. Only headache is Hendo is out, Allen/Cout subbed out, Johnson became defensive and thus yeah lol, Sterling the only one left.
Allen was decent last night with runs/attempts but I thought Lucas was doing decent in his defense too, at least until we became defensive/counter-attacking after the 2 goals lead. Once both Cout/Allen is subbed, Lucas need to make forward runs and lol, while his runs are not bad IMO, there was no one else in front to pass and he is like sesat already.

Way more than Barkley for sure. Guy was running a bit like a headless chicken vs MU (ok a bit over exaggerate but the fact I see him keep falling over during that match shows his not as strong as our Sterling Hulk )

Yeah Allen seems to have a lot of energy running in the box and doing defensive work but his energy levels is still not like our Energizer bunny Hendo but can see his trying.

Lucas probably coz he spends most of this time as DM and never had to venture into opposition box that he tires towards the end of the game where you can see him doing lazy tackles and giving away fouls.

It's no secret BR likes athletic footballers (especially MF & FBs) who can cover at least 10+ miles in a game per match with Hendo leading this stat at around 11.5 (or something like that).

Let's do it this Sunday!
Bit of another stressful 2nd half last night!

Our BR, the Super Cool One

Rodgers only bristled once, when he was asked whether Chelsea’s defeat on Saturday evening had helped his Liverpool team yesterday.

“No, not at all,” Rodgers said. “No one has helped us win 11 games in succession. No one has helped us score 96 goals.

“We have never worried about the results of our rivals.

“Our principle here is that you have to help yourself.”

Love the last quote
