The Title Race - 2023/24

Oh yeah, Pep will have us fired up...getting Kev, Erling and Stones back while we're in touching distance of them is huge i think.

We could do with getting win at anfailed now, end Bingo's stay in style :-)

If we can win at Spurs we can win there!

Win our next two and we will be top

It looks like Pep has settled on his preferred team shape in and out of possession

in possession it’s a 2 3 4 1

Dias Ake

bernardo rodri kovacic

Walker Foden Bobb Gvardiol

Alvarez

Kevin and Grealish would also be perfect in the Foden and Bobb slots , as would Alvarez

Haaland coming back will transform this team as we have lacked a true cutting edge

out of possession it’s a 4 4 2

Walker Dias Ake Gvardiol

bernardo rodri kovacic Bobb

Foden Alvarez

we have been solid in the last two tricky aways but sometimes a bit susceptible to the counter attack as there is space in the channels due-to the full backs playing so high and needing time to get back

it seems we have dispensed with the Stones role stepping into midfield ,probably due to his lack of fitness this season

is this the start of our winning run to the title ?

Rip up the tactics board, that will evolve beyond recognition come the back end; his permutations are dictated by availability, which can be dangerous for Pep at times, however, he’s learned a lesson or two on that score and for me, we’ll grind teams down from here on in; our impact riches are nigh on impossible to contain…

Anyone say treble? (:

Tuesday 20/02/24 Brentford at Home.

We then play Bournemouth the following weekend whilst Dippers are causing mayhem at the League Cup Final.
Klopps last potentially and every Dip and his Dog will be there, we know how it normally ends!

Dips next 2 are Chelsea H and Arse A!

surely Liverpool wont do 6 points from Chelsea home and Arsenal away this week...

we really need the Londoners not to lie down to them. two draws would be great.
Zinchenko, Jesus, Arteta and Sterling/Palmer has to deliver for City.

while we need to beat Burnley at home and then Brentford away Monday evening can be tricky but we should manage it.

would be great if we could go top the table after these two rounds with a game in hand. for that we need too win both and Pool only get a draw and a loss or two losses.

It pains me but the two or three times I have watched Lpool recently I have been impressed. particularly with the speed of transition. I think it will be pretty close between us and who wins will be down to injuries and the extra that Pep gives us. We will need to be at our very best though.

Shaping up to be a cracking title race this year.

It's going to be very close between Liverpool, Arsenal and ourselves.

Bring it on.

A bit of a win win. We lift the trophy, the first to win four on a row. We miss out, the motivation is there to win the next 3.

I could see them winning both quite comfortably, it really is between us and them for the title
