The Title Race - 2021/22

I don't subscribe to the theory Liverpool will blow Villarreal away at all, I think they will be too much for them over two legs, but it'll be a battle.

If they are to drop points it will be in between or immediately after that tie for me, same for Chelsea FA Cup Final.

It could be a really tough tie, or Villarreal could conced early and it'll be a piece of piss.

They are a sit back and counter side, and they can be very dangerous on the counter but all it takes is a simple mistake or a bit of luck and they go down easily and the game is over.

IIRC They've won 1 league game after going behind in 2 years. Most of their losses involve conceding in the first 30 and never getting back into it.

If they can hold out the first half, teams tend to get frustrated, but Liverpool could just as easily come flying out of the blocks and have the game won 20 minutes in.

With the form they're in, Newcastle (A) for Liverpool might be the hardest game either of us have left.

They've won 6 straight at home and are unbeaten in 8 league games at home, haven't lost there since we played them in December.

Liverpool is their next home game.

And a 1230 start
Lovely, can't wait for Klopps excuses

Euh … 6 games … that’s 18 points … plus 77 we already collected … 95 !

Maximum points from the remaining games required. Anything less, the gobshites will steal it.
But the longer we keep winning, the greater the chance that the pressure might get to them.

Winning the remaining games wins City the title again which means continuing as before. Do-able especially with the return and winning mentality of Ruben.

What has been missing is the the threat of Sergio genius of scoring out of the blue? Definitely rectified for next season.

Every game we notch off, will bring them down.
Just one game at a time. Each is a cup final.

It really looks like it’s coming down to whoever blinks first. Liverpool are on a great roll at the moment and it’s hard to see anyone beating them let alone taking points off them. So, we need to win all our remaining games. We’ve done it before so why not do it again. It’s tough but doable.

Burnley play twice before that Liverpool-Everton game. Everton could be third from bottom, or only a point or two from being, so it could be one of the biggest games for decades for them!

I don't expect Everton to get anything, buuuuutttt if Lampard and their players want to apologize for a shite season getting a win at Anfield, taking a huge step in stopping Liverpool winning the title and securing their own safety, would be one way to do it.

Whatever happens this season, we will win the league again in the next 3 seasons and win the CL in the next 5. The possibility of Liverpool doing a quadruple and Everton getting relegated in the same season would do damage that would take a generation of the blue scousers to recover from.

Whatever we can get if we win all games. That murdering club will not drop points
