Sorry if this has been said I suspect that after the forest var debacle they will now give them everything as compensation
Including the game against us.

Also spurs will get bummed until they play us and up their game as usual.
Spurs will be happy for us to win against them
If we win the league against them they will be even happier
 
That’s my worry or that forest will be so outraged they’ll play the game of their lives with the crowd behind them ..

Yeah, my thoughts as well. They may lose their heads as well. We just have to play our game and let them lose the plot, go gun-ho, and we’ll pick them off.
 
I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that Liverpool are out of it at all, I think people suggesting as much must have short memories. Far weirder things have happened. Especially when you look at the fixtures.

Arsenal's are tough - away at United, away at Spurs, tricky game with Everton on the final day who are awkward
Ours aren't easy either - away at Spurs, away at Brighton, away at Fulham - and crucially we have more to play

If you ask me, there's almost no way that more points aren't dropped. Nobody has shown the kind of machine-like consistency we've had in previous years. I wouldn't be surprised if we all drop more points, in fact I'm tempted to say it's odds on.
Liverpool's fixtures from here on are the easiest with Villa away looking like the best candidate for dropped points.

We need 13 pts + GD out of 18 to ensure Liverpool don't win it. Hardly a guarantee. Arsenal could bottle it even harder.

Yes, I would say we're now quite clear favourites, but we desperately need a couple of convincing wins v Brighton and Forest. If we come through those unscathed then it'll likely feel much more comfortable.
Why are we quite clear favourites? I’d say it’s 50/50 with us and Arsenal.

I would say we and Arsenal are quite clear favourites to finish above Liverpool. You can’t lose against Palace and Everton at this stage of the season. Liverpool looked done in that second half. Klopp looked done. He is not stupid. He knows what we are capable of and he also knows that Arsenal don’t look vulnerable. I’d be surprised if they won it from here.

In terms of consistency, Arsenal have won 11 out of their last 13 games which is pretty consistent! Fortunately we have kept in there.
