They have improved definitely but I think it is squad depth where the difference kicks in. Injuries and suspensions will happen as the season progresses and I doubt that they will then keep pace.
If we win the league every year without any meaningful challenge, then we might as well be Celtic.I quite like having challengers to be honest. It'll make it that much sweeter come May
Maybe but a lot of people said the same thing about Leicester.
This lot might not have our strength in depth or even a first 11 with our strength but I don’t think a few injuries is going to throw them off the chase. We just have to keep winning and break their spirits with a long stern chase.
I have no doubts on that score. We look determined.You may be right, so we will have to see.
We will outlast them though, I am sure about that.

That’s the one!Cellick?
Don't they lose Salah and Mane to the ACON in the new year?

Indeed assuming we'll be on top by the game against them & I see no reason to doubt that, we can essentially 'win' the league beating them in January.Looking at their upcoming fixtures, they have another tough run coming up until they play us on January 3rd. Only exception is Newcastle at home. Games are virtually every 3 days with the exception of the week of rags and wolves as they are out of the league cup so will rest. Making this fixture list worse is the competitiveness of their CL meaning PSG and Napoli are more or less must win games.
PSG away
Everton home
Burnley away
Bournemouth away
Napoli home
Rags home
Wolves away
Newcastle home
Arsenal home
City away
This is when we’ll finally see the depth of their squad. The defense and front 3 have barely rotated so far with Klopp mostly rotating the midfield.
Our fixtures in that period are much more generous other than Chelsea away and we may even qualify early for the CL. I expect us to be at least 5 points ahead by the time we play them.

I can see us being 5/6 points ahead by the time we play them.
Plus the Manchester Ship Canal and Bridgewater Canal took commerce away from their city, to ManchesterMust be gauling for a Dipper fan , they have their best team for donkeys years , a very good manager , spent hundreds of millions and they are breaking all their own club records and they arent even laying a glove on us , no wonder they despise Manchester , the Rags took the piss out of them for decades and now they have to play 2nd fiddle to us. Lovely
It’s been moved to the summer for all future competitions, not temporarily.ACON has been temporarily moved to summer to allow for the Qatar 2022 world cup.
