I do have to agree with many of the host fans on this thread. The media are completely bonkers and there really is no excuse for lazy journalism.
I blame Trump! all this fake news and claims the media lie, well they appear to be buying in to it.
That said, it still does surprise me at the variety of reasons why Liverpool are leading at present. Yes there is a degree of luck to it, and all teams get lucky at some time but so much of it is down to Liverpool playing good solid football (Yes nothing outstanding and certainly not matching some of the football played by Arsenal at their peak, Salford ( I have to grudgingly admit) or City).
It is also coinciding with a drop off in form from City. Pretty much as many said when Leicester won it, others weren't as good. They weren't necessarily given the credit they deserved for doing what they needed to over a whole season.
I can also appreciate that many complain about Liverpool fans and their attitude. Personally I don't see this as arrogance, as for the last 30 years we haven't had anything really to be arrogant about. It has all been bravado and clinging to hope.
As that clock at Salford Untd had to disappear when you won the league, (hopefully) the albatross will be lifted from our necks this season.
