Bournemouth (a) pre-match thread

I know. I am assuming Liverpool don't win every game, but even then I can only see them dropping points in 2 games max

Phew, I thought I was going mad as someone posted yesterday we needed to win to keep it in our hands :)

We could win all ten and still not win the league

That's my take, too. They will not fold. Anybody who believes that is living in cloud cuckoo land. This is not like 2013-14. They're a substantially more balanced team, especially in defence. But they may well drop a couple of points. I expect them to, in fact. We have to win everything. It's the default requirement. I know — it's a very, very tough ask, especially with the injuries we've got, and our involvement in two other competitions. If we win this, it will be arguably our greatest triumph of the four titles in this decade.

Dont think that team will be far off and is one I would be happy to see

I agree about them being a better team this campaign but mental fortitude plays a big part in top sports. I do believe a) we are stronger in that side of things and, b) if they do go behind, I couldn't see them making it back in front

Am I the only one expecting a significant % of scousers hoping Clyne will do them a massive favour and clobber Sterling or is my low opinion of them unduly low.

Toughish challenge but if dont win it's nearly game over as there are worse away fixtures to come: United, Burnley and Brighton to name but three.

And Palace to name but four.
