Yes, also we have difficult games. I believe to the team and Pep. But it’s not over yet.

Difficult games… Everton and United?
 
Assuming hte scousers win all their games upto the point they play us we have got (inthe prem):

Brentford (Home)
Norwich (Away)
Spurs (home)
Everton (away)
Utd (home)
Palace (away)
Brighton (Home)
Burnley (Away)

then the scousers (at home)

Looking at that there a a few difficult games in it
Spurs....beat us earlier int he season and then were dreadful but have been much improved under Conte - very difficult game

Utd - have improved in the last few gaems under Ragnik......they always have the players to hurt us on the brea and they agre getting used to Ragnicks way of playing. .......which is about getting the ball forward as quick as possible - tricky game

Palace away - (another team like Southampton) who always give us a hard time.

Scousers run upto our game is:

Palace (away)
Leicester (home)
Burnely (away)
Norwich (home)
Arsenal (away)
West Hame (home)
Brighton (away)
Utd (home)
Watford (Home)

then us

You look at that and there aint many hard games in there at all..... Palace tomorrow and maybe utd......but thats at anfield and utd will wilt there

we are going to have to be near perfect to not create a situation where they can get above us by beating us at home.....

Liverpool's games vs Arsenal and Brighton are away and what may make them difficult is that they are surrounded by difficult games with Chelsea, Inter and potentially difficult game(s) in March in the FA Cup. Their fixture schedule in late February and March is brutal.
 
Do people really believe Liverpool are going to go on a massive winning streak though based off what they've seen so far?

If say we win 11 of 15, draw 2 and lose 2, we'd be on 91 points. Liverpool can only hit 96 at max, which means they'd need to win AT LEAST 15 out of their last 17 games to beat that.

Of course Liverpool could still win it, but it feels like we're just being modest about it. I doubt most sane Liverpool fans are expecting much.

IF Liverpool win tomorrow, we'd stll have say 75% chance to win the league from here, and that's a great position to be in.

Of course, it's not over. I struggle to understand the point of claiming the league is over. Pep's teams go on incredible winning runs because they control better the games than other teams. But even they can't control luck, injuries, VAR, etc. We never managed to win 6-7 games in a row in 19/20. Laporte got injured, Stones had problems, Otamendi was over the hill...Shit happens, even to the best teams.

Implied probability based on odds from a wide range betting sites is in the range 88% to 92%.
Intuitively feels right imo.

Betting odds are less reliable than 538's predictions, imo. If Liverpool win tomorrow, their chances will go from 12 to 20 %. If they fail to win, their chances will drop below 10 %.

They done it before mate(18-19, 19-20). They are really good team. We have to be very careful.

Of course, but the signs were there that they had that in them back then. Neither run came out of the blue.

Plus, surely it's more likely we go on another crazy run than Liverpool do?
 
Just need to be focused for the full period of the game. We have had periods of looking half asleep in some of the recent games against Leicester, Arsenal and today. Sometimes these periods last 15 mins, sometimes a bit longer but they are creeping in. Last week against Chelsea we looked on it all game. Today the first 30 we were not the same team and had one attempt in the first 30 mins.

Complacency can set in and that was maybe the wake up call today as we got away with it in the other games. I’m sure Pep gave them an absolute bollocking at half time because the intensity was a different level second half.

Yes, that’s right. But everyting is possible. We are unlucky team and they are very lucky team.
