Liverpool won't get top 4, they are out for the count. What's masquerading as their defence is atrocious, the front 3 look burnt out, they aren't pulling back a nine point gap with Leicester and the rags, which leaves them as one of about 4 or 5 other teams with a realistic chance of top 4, but they are in the worst form of all those sides currently. It might take 70+ points for 4th which means the dippers need 10 wins from 13 minimum.I think Liverpool and United will scrape the top 4 to be honest.
Liverpool are on terrible run, but I'd be amazed if they slip into relegation form for all of the 2nd half of the season. As much as I'd like it, I don't see it happening. Whilst they moan about injuries they still have a decent team. That said, Klopp is finished there. He's made the mistake of playing the same players week-in-week-out and not rotating. It's as if he's never studied Wenger, Ferguson, Guardiola etc. He's fell into a trap where his players are absolutely knackered with way too many miles on the clock. He won't be able to rebuild that team without serious money and I can see him going to Madrid in summer.
United have a decent team, but are held back by their amateurish manager. If they'd got a manager in like Ancelotti I'm sure they wouldn't be 10 points behind us.
I hope you're right @Murph - it will make that champers taste a LOT better when I'm celebrating another title and giving my scouse mate some lip! :)Liverpool won't get top 4, they are out for the count.

Chelsea next 3 games rags, dippers and Everton. We will know a lot more after those fixtures. Hopefully they win the first 2 but lose the 3rd.There is one spot for top four rags and Leicester are in. Think Chelsea will just sneak it.
