The Title Race - 2024/25

Actually hilarious for Arsenal that we might have the season they needed us to have and they can't take advantage. Bottlers in every way.

They'll still find a way to blame us.

I will not be giving up on the league title just yet even with the last 2 loses in the league, but I just asked myself who would I least like to win the league out out the red scoucers and the tarquins fuck me its hard to pick.

It is tough, I think if Liverpool hadn't won and was still chasing their first for a while then Arsenal might pip it. I have no issues with how they are playing, they look good and deservedly at the top. I would hate to lose out to a stuttering Arsenal. Their fans are up there with Liverpool. I don't mind Slot either, I think it will be funny if he wins it, with Klopps squad, as it puts to bed Klopp was overachieving there (apparently)

We have to survive and stay in it or the whole season can go sideways really fast here..

The collective bedwetting by some on here and so called City fans across social media has been a sight to see. Can only assume they are teenagers.

Second in the league considering all the injuries we have and players running on fumes.

Imagine how we'll still improve when these players come back and players get match fit.

Every year for the last four we have results like this at this point. Then we improve after Christmas and go on to win and set records.

Good post mate, were 5 points adrift and the bed wetting is a disgrace,5 points which can become 2 on a good weekend

We're 2nd in the league and definitely still in it. That's pretty damn good.

And brilliant to see Kev on the pitch again.

Up the blues!

Be 8 points after we've played at anfield, ain't a chance we will get anything there.

Would completely agree with that if Rodri were available after say January. Him missing the whole season makes the comparisons with previous seasons a bit lame.

This doesn't mean we won't compete for the title, as Liverpool might have bad periods too. They had a really bad finish to last season and it is premature to think that they will easily go above 85 pts. This season, 85 pts might suffice.

Anyway, we should sign 1-2 players in January and hope that the likes of Foden, KDB and Haaland hit form. If, and it's a big if, they play like top 10 players in the world, we are likely to compete.

Christ beat spurs and Liverpool and we are two of the top, who the hell do we get in January unless we break the bank and I can’t see that. In other news I’ve noticed a lot of my rag friends have suddenly come out of hiding !

Get to Christmas only 5 behind and everyone will shit themselves. It's a huge advantage to us that our opponents know that we have the mentality to get serious when it counts.
