The Title Race - 2023/24

[bitterblue78]

Spurs will decide the title looking at all the games left for each club. They play City, Arsenal and Liverpool.

Win tomorrow and on Saturday and we have come through a difficult March and early April quite well. We really only have Spurs away as a difficult game and a possible defeat. Liverpool still have to go to Arsenal.

Liverpool and arsenal have played each other twice

Liverpool and arsenal have played each other twice

That is so. Unfortunately the big three have all played each other, and there’ll be nothing to hope for there. (We might get the Arse in the semi-final of the CL, and one more chance for payback). Coming out of those two big games with only two points is not honestly great. It’s not disastrous, but it’s not great. I was hoping for a win and a draw (I was never hoping for two wins).
Now it’s third parties who will decide this. And yes, Spurs have a key role.

Nothing a couple of thumping good wins to improve the goal difference won't help come Saturday mid afternoon.

We just need to get amongst the goals again and everything else will look after itself.

We need Liverpool to drop 4 points and win all of our games. Huge task tbh. Can't see the dippers dropping any more than 4 looking at their run in

It's going to be very close and whilst I still think we will win it, the wind doesn't feel like it's in our sails at all. We look well off the pace really but if we can get a few big wins in then who knows.

I can see United pulling out another big performance against them and them dropping points. I know they've been poor at times but they are capable of pulling something out of the bag as the FA Cup showed.

I honestly think all 3 teams will drop points.

I honestly think all 3 teams will drop points.

I was about to say I agree and that likely in the most unlikely of places.

But then I remember the frankly disgusting refereeing that Liverpool enjoyed in their favour to gift them the title in the year they won it. The PL bent over backwards to have them win. And sadly I expect the same only more so this time around. Extra time "until Liverpool score"? check. Penalties given for Salah randomly throwing himself to the floor? Check. Stonewallers for the opponents, waived aside with VAR not even looking at them? Check. Fouling with impunity? Check.

Sickening to see but this is what I am expecting, sadly.

Went for a day out in Liverpool yesterday with wife and kids on train (I know, I know).

Haven't done so for about 25 years. Some of the buildings might have changed but the people clearly haven't.

Market stalls selling Liverpool thanks Klopp scarves, History maker banners.

Shankly Hotel, Jurgens Bar, Liverpool club shop wearers all over the City.

Absolutely bizarre place, won't be going back.

I couldn’t see the rags knocking them out of the FA Cup, keep the faith.

Cannot remotely imagined what on earth possessed you to go there in the first place.

School holidays, close on the train, daughter had her City rucksack on.

Don't think a couple could believe it when my Haaland mobile ringtone went off at Lime Street.
