The Title Race - 2023/24

What is it about Everton that people keep thinking there is to fear, for Liverpool?

Liverpool have two wins in the last 11 games at Goodison.

Everton have had lots of shit seasons recently and Liverpool have had plenty of good ones, yet still nearly every game at Goodison ends in a draw.

Game on. Of the three teams in it; we are the only one whose squad has been in a title race and won it. Let’s see who has the cajones

That's surprising, if asked I would have said 6 or 7 wins. Come on the toffees.

We need a wheelbarrow for a reason.



Massive.

Klopp has lost it big time. Game on.

This is what football is about. Cheering on your biggest rivals to enhance your chances of winning the league. Watched it in a pub with a few Reds and think I cheered the loudest when mainoo scored. Give me a last game decider over a 100 point season any day of the week.

Ill get some hate but I genuinely think we've been the best team this season (Fewest conceded, best gd).

I wouldn’t argue with that. But that doesn’t win you trophies. One slip up from here on in could cost you

Shit, we're 20 points behind Arse and Dippers!

There's me thinking it was 1 point with 7 games to play!

Anyone thinking Arse are invincible need to check their results around December, they dropped a huge amount of points which allowed us to rein it in after a jittery start to the season.

Just witness the last two seasons when the pressure mounted how arsenal capitulated… their chance to kill us was last week - they could have taken all 3 points but they didn’t have the bollox to do so…and instead parked the bus for a point

With each week that passes, the pressure will ramp. I guarantee at some point Arsenal will choke as each game magnifies the pressure

Not according to Understat. On their model, City have been slightly better than Arsenal.

Also, the final 7 games matter. No team wins it due to being the best over the first 31 games. If Arsenal win more points after 38 games, then they have been the best.

As regards GD, City had better GD than Liverpool when they won it by 18 pts...

The last bit sums it up for all 3 teams. I think one slip from any of them would likely prove fatal in winning the title.
