Nah, whilst I agree if we don't win against this pretty average Liverpool side then I don't think we really deserve the title, have people learnt nothing from previous years?
5 point gap can disappear in a week.
Agree that a 5 point gap can disappear quickly, but we don't need to beat any team in particular to deserve the title. We lost twice vs Brentford and won the Treble. The only thing that matters in the league is you are top after 38 games.
This Liverpool team is not very impressive on paper, but it is not average. They play out of their skins and compensate for their weaknesses with intensity (hence the injuries). They are inspired and absolutely desperate to win the title. Their problem is that City are really strong and love tight title races. Their hopes that City are going to wilt at Anfield are likely to be frustrated. We have a fantastic group of players.
