    Massive game against Hudders next time out. Win that and it's game on.

    Think them Stoke and Millwall are you're best chances of catching. Rotherham are already gone and Wednesday though have improved I think will still go too.

    Yeah huge and they’re another dog **** team. Don’t think we’ll catch anyone else even though Blackburn, Stoke, Millwall etc. are all crap.

    Arsenal are closer to Spurs and Villa than they are to City and Liverpool.

    Just my opinion

    You lot were best team down here first half, including Leicester. It wasn't much of a contest.

    Second half Swans gave you a game, very equal and hit the post twice and could have scored more.

    Haven't read beyond the post I'm quoting yet, but hope you saw that.

    I should point out, the reason Swans played so well was because the opponents played proper football, rather than the carthorse ****e usually dished up by our opposition here.

    Saints still did the old sit someone down to kill momentum trick, like every ****er does. (your keeper)

    And we just knew a former player would score, they ****ing always do!

    I mean in ability.

    Like I’ve said before, only two teams can win the PL in the last 4-5 years. City or Liverpool. Unless something changes it will always be one of the two.

    Things always change. There was a time United looked nailed on to win forever and now they’re managed by a budget Bond villain and will do well to get fourth.

    Yeah was very much a game of two halves. Could easily have been 5-1 at HT but also could have easily been 3-3 come FT as it played out were it not for some poor finishing on your part.

    Don't think we had a shot on target in second half and after a few wasteful early chances offered barely anything up top.

    Subbing Stephens on for Harwood-Bellis made a huge difference as the latter is one of the best CBs in the league and the former really wasn't at the races. Gave you huge confidence in the press as we were giving it up.

    I mentioned our keeper doing that at the the time on our board. Was extremely obvious lol.

    I agree but as long as Klopp and especially Pep are there then both team will continue to be the likely winners of the title

    Both teams will struggle when they lose them and that’s when the opportunity is there for Arsenal or Man Utd to win the title again.
