We’re not good enough I don’t think, flat-track bullies at home. We had a lot of luck in December with City dropping points and we jagged a few 1-nils when we were ordinary. Just no midfield creativity and too much deadwood on the bench. I’ve never thought we’d win it, but there’s no denying this is the best chance we were ever likely to have. Been a great 12 months losing the UCL final, Norwood losing the GF and now watching the Reds fold under pressure for another likely runner-up. Mancs probably win it next season just to continue the pain.

Cheer up. :D I love sport, even though my teams hardly win anything. Liverpool are clearly good enough, otherwise you wouldn't be in contention. Plenty of games to go, including cup commitments and City could easily slip up, especially a couple of games around Easter when they play Spurs and United in 4 days.

All good mate, It was a somewhat cynical/sarcastic post. Like I said I’ve never thought we’d win it, but I’ve enjoyed the ride (minus the freakin millions of supporters that shit can the side every week on Social Media) and still have hope, albeit it’s fading fast

Just about a perfect weekend for Arsenal with the way results went!
Having a look at the future games I think they're just about a lock in for top 4.
Can see Spurs dropping behind them and Man U very easily.
We'll just have to win the Champions League to ensure we get back in next season! :lol:

Ours is tougher.
We have Liverpool and Man City away in our harder games.
You have Man City and Chelsea at home in your harder games.

Tempted to cash in all my City bets for a reasonable profit, but still think they'll get through the remaining games better than us. Think our only hope is for Salah to hit his straps and keep it for 7 games (which is not beyond the realms of possibility).

United sign Ole as manager for next season. Done a fantastic job however my only concern is not sure how long his strategy of "go out and play" will work. Was always going to be successful early but not convinced it will work long term, hopefully i'm wrong.

You blokes would know more about your club than me, but after Moyes, LVG and the Special One, I reckon it’s not a bad idea to have a rusted on Man U man and Fergie disciple at the helm.

Liverpool win it in the 90th minute due to a defensive error from Spurs. I’m still not sure how we took anything from the game, Spurs absolutely played us off the park in the 2nd half

Spurs finally played in their new home and it was spectacular!
Next game there is Man City in the CL.

I'm very bullish about Southampton's chances against Liverpool Saturday morning. Pretty much a full squad available for Saints and Ralph has got the team well organised. This is our cup final. One the ex Saints players to give away a late penalty and Danny Ings to slot home the winner. Go Saints!

Yep, thought for a while this would be one of our biggest banana skins. Manè missed out against Tottenham, another 3 in 3 mins at St Mary’s be nice

Sounds like our 1st goal shouldn’t have stood which obviously changes the game. Second half we were good for the 3 points. Got a soft spot for the Saints so hopefully they stay up, should do from here
