The Title Race - 2023/24

[waspish]

If we keep winnig our games, we keep the pressure on them and they might.

Agree with us being in the fa cup next week mean Arsenal and Liverpool will have the chance to go above us then the pressure is on for us to win at Brighton but we been good at this pressure to win games..

 

[TinFoilHat]

One game at a time.

as someone said earlier - dippers and gooners have been far too giddy, far too early - probably best to keep a lid on it until last game. Meeja fault - trying to whip up subscriptions with their ''run in'' bollocks in bloody February!!! over 15% of the season left!

Definitely, 1 game at a time, starting on Wednesday.

This is what happens when I ignore the scores of others

My new ploy!

Beautiful

 

[AliBobbyJ]

oh for it all to be in our control.

Oh to be in England, now that April's there ...

This could be a fucking huge week, I've said all along it's a momentum business, doesn't matter what comp it's in, if we win Weds and then Sat, we are going to be on an incredible high going into those last league games

I remembered i had an account here, that I had made at the time of last year's Champions League final (I am an Inter fan).
Just wanted to say, because I had a good time here in this forum last year (despite the loss), I hope to see you win again. We were kicked out by Atletico this year, but I hope you win the CL and the EPL again.
Best of luck!

Good man and the craic was good with your lot in Instanbul..proper way to enjoy European football in the sun.. had a good chat and laugh with a few of your lot that weekend -

State of Merson.
Got a right mard arse on and has thrown the towel in

What a weekend- incredible. For me now- I think scousers will push us closest- they're nearly out of europe- they've got 6 more games with flopp where they will go hell to leather- arsenal still got Chelsea Tottenham rags left in the league and expect them to drop more points and tail off

 

[MikeF]

Who’s staying up for match of the day???

 

[Crooked_rain]

Great weekend but far from over.

My feeling has been that if Arsenal have a wobble, they will go. We'll see in the next few weeks if that turns out to be true. It may not. A good sign is that they looked like they hit a wall today after an hour, their energy seemed to sap as soon as Villa started moving the ball well. Hopefully its a sign of things to come.

As for the dippers, they look like they've been running out of steam for a good few weeks but who knows? Maybe they'll find a second wind/batch of inhalers.

Nobody is immune from dropping points and that includes us. At least its in our hands now and nobody knows better than us how to manage the situation.

Quietly confident but you cant get carried away when all these positions can change in one game.

Agreed, Wednesday could be the catalyst of an incredible possible 12 games = that's a lot of football mind you

 

[Pedrolapaz]

Must have been 33/1 that surely today

123/1 Double. Crystal Palace was 12/1 and Aston Villa was 17/2 (or 8.5/1)
So, 13 x 9.5 = 123.5
Congrats to anyone who had the bottle to bet at them odds..

 

[Georgian Maestro]

9/2 for the treble now

 

[Citizen Mike]

you have to love the fans and the pundits chucking in the towel already. Hopefully that attitude will rub off on their players as well

 

[Sir peace frog]

i feel of the 3 teams in the race we are the most stable, i dont think results win or draw make much of a difference to our mentality, whereas if liverpool or arsenal win they go over the top, really think this is one of our many strengths

 

[M Gaudino]

10 days ago with madrid, villa at home, palace away and chelsea in the semi it was looking like the season could be over very quickly.

Now we are bang on for this treble again

 

[uwe rosler 28]

Think 4 wins and a draw will do it I see the arse and dippers both dropping more points.

 

[NI Blue]

We as supporters have been in this position before. Majority of players have been in this position before. Pep has been in this position before. Everything is now in our hands. All anyone can ask for

 

[Fordyboy46]

Lol, on 606 now the scousers blaming the departure of Klopp for the bottle job in these last two games. They're a weird bunch aren't they?
