Why we will win the league!

[cleavers]

If we do go through to semi in FA cup, when the fuck will Cardiff game fit in?

2nd or 3rd April, the only free week.

Plus every man and his dog want us to fail....

I'm 99% certain that every single fan base about wants the Dippers to fail, they'll take us over them every day of the week.

We usually use West Ham's facilities when we're in London as far as I know.

That would be just what’s needed.
Arsenal are at home for their europa first leg, so the London Colney complex will be in full use!

Yes, I was a bit flustered at the time (like a dipper with a candle and no lighter).
After posting, I realised it could only happen on those dates.

Agreed... the pundits and press on the other hand ..

Yesterday’s draw is interesting ... us not getting Porto (the easiest on paper at least) and Liverpool getting them means they’ll get to the semis at least ... those two SF fixtures are wrapped around the second last game of the season ... and then the final game of the season is only a midweek away from the second leg at the end ... those last two or three PL games could be deciding the title so them getting to the Semis and having a two legged affair vs Barca or Rags is exactly what I’d have asked for ... them getting a tough(er) draw yesterday and getting out in Quarters would’ve been good for laughs but when those settled right at the end of the season they’d have had two mid weeks free between last three PL games ... now chances of them having the mid weeks tied (and tied worse or equal to us) is just what we needed in this title race ...

... which btw, we. will. win.

Yep, I hope they beat Porto and then get destroyed by Barca.

Driving home from one of our midweek matches I heard Chris Sutton on the radio saying "Most neutrals will want Liverpool to win the PL". The presenter replied "We've held an online poll, you obviously haven't seen the results"

Play our 2nd eleven
Day after cup final.






Joking by the way.

The following of our players are NOT going on international duty so would get two weeks rest after today's game ...

Aymeric Laporte
Benjamin Mendy
Vincent Kompany
Kevin De Bruyne
Fernandinhio
David Silva
Sergio Aguero

And possibly John Stones could pull out of England (given Pep's latest comments Swansea pre-match)

All of the above should be coming back into playing XI after that period as well, even those who have been out injured, KdB, Ferna and Laporte mainly but even Mendy ... and with Aguero and Silva getting the rest, this should definitely help us in the crazy April ahead.

I'd do a Fergie and pull Sterling out as well. Bollocks to internationals

Mendy in particular will benefit from the rest.

haha, word is he's in the red zone of social media.

I think the idea of fixture congestion putting us at a huge disadvantage in the title race is pretty much null and void now. After the international break we will only have one more league game than them and an FA Cup Semi-final. Liverpool are likely to have four Champions League games and hopefully so will we. If we reach the final in either competition, they're not until after the league season is over. All in all, we will probably have two more games than them. We should have an almost fully fit squad for the run-in so we can more than cope with two extra games.

Think it’s a case of grinding out the results from now till May and dare I say June if we turn it on in the champions league. They keep finding ways to win which is impressive. I wonder if Liverpool’s obsession with the European cup might take their eye off the ball in the league if they reach the semis?

He's had a couple of seasons of putting his feet up

Most of our extra games were over Jan, Feb and early March. The extra rest and warm weather breaks doesn't seem to have done them much good anyway

Well put. It's very interesting to be a Blue right now. What a club.

Opposition keepers said not helping us. Fulham keeper dropped easy ball and then gave away penalty when’s plenty of defenders around to help him. How many keepers going to hand wins to Liverpool this season.
