But there does need to be a 25% point swing from last season. That would require a catastrophic collapse in form from City or an astonishing improvement in Liverpool's form. I simply do not see either of those things happening.
It just happened last season. Chelsea who finished 15 points ahead of us in 16-17 were 30 points behind us in 17-18. That's a 45 point swing over 2 seasons. Nobody expected Chelsea to fall so much behind at the beginning of the season.

Sure it happens but we are talking the likelihood of City collapsing and this Liverpool side (who finished on one point less than the previous season) improving by 25% to overtake City. It is unlikely.
A more realistic ambition for Liverpool would be to finish above Spurs. That is the level they are at whether they like it or not.
Did last season not teach you anything? Teams will just shut up shop as they did last year. Stop dreaming.
My response was to the poster who said it will be tougher.
It will be but I see us still taking the piss

Hope you're right. Though from what I see, with the CL final, the good purchases they are making, Salah being 'god', Klopps record against Pep and just his general record of winning things.... I see Liverpool really running us close this year, maybe so close that the games at theirs and ours will be what determines thingsSure it happens but we are talking the likelihood of City collapsing and this Liverpool side (who finished on one point less than the previous season) improving by 25% to overtake City.

Excellent point. This swing nonsense is just that nonsense. We will win the league again if we apply ourselves and have the same determination and hunger as last season unless another team put in an amazing performance. We will not win the league if we fall off even a small bit from last season unless all the other sides have poor seasons. The margins involved are minute and intangible and certainly cannot be simplistically quantified in terms of the points difference between sides at the end of the previous season.It just happened last season.

Klopp hasn't won anything since 2012. He has 3 trophies in 17 years of management, all won between 2010/11 and 2011/12. Lots of runners up prizes though.Klopps record against Pep and just his general record of winning things
Di Marzio says they are close to Alisson and if they sign Fekir they have had a superb summer
Yep, they've strengthened well and must surely be challengers next season. If Klopp has yet another trophy-less season then questions should be asked.

Questions won't be asked. They are punching well above their weight. They were in the Champions League Final. Klopp will dine out on that for years.

Didn't he say himself if he didn't win the league within 4 years he'd quit? 1, 2, 3...Yep, they've strengthened well and must surely be challengers next season. If Klopp has yet another trophy-less season then questions should be asked.
Klopp under zero pressure like poch with the football they play fans be happy enough if they get top 4 again.
Exactly. That is Spurs, Liverpool and Arsenal's level. Pretty football and a run out in the Champions League every few years. Everyone is happy.

Doesn't solve their problem of breaking down teams who park the bus or their defending at set pieces. And if Salah has another good season he'll be off to Spain. If he doesn't then they're screwed.If they do bring in Allison, no excuses for Liverpool this season.
Christ, how much will their squad cost?
Almost as if they're trying to buy the league.
Lmaooooo where have we seen that before....remember when we all thought united bought well then turned out to be an overpriced stoke
