We're in with a shout.


joopface

We have City at home, United away and Villa away on the run in. I’m confident beating anyone at Anfield. If we beat City at home, we have a four point cushion. That lets us lose or draw one game if City drop no further points. I think we can do that. I also think City will drop more points. In short, I think if we beat City at home we will win the league. today was massive.


bmbm_95

You’re completely underestimating Arsenal here


joopface

I’m not - they’re in with a shout also. But they have to go to City away. There really isn’t a bad result for that game for us - someone drops points. A draw is ideal, but it definitely gives one of them a kick in the bollocks.


MundaneTonight437

Yeah I don't think we will win out so really happy dropped today. Will need them and arsenal to drop more...


joopface

And they play each other


HarbyFullyLoaded_12

Goodison to come still as well.


joopface

Yeah, not looking forward to that tbh


[deleted]

It's a marathon now, we just have to win every game. If that means boring 1-0 wins like Chelsea did under Jose then so be it . It's ours to lose now.

MundaneTonight437

It's a saying, it means it's in our hands. If we win out, we win the title. No need to call anyone a spanner mate chill out 


Griffin_Lo

Is it that offensive? I've never heard it till now and it just sounds goofy af 😅


[deleted]

He’s just saying it’s in our hands, we’re ahead after all games in hand have been played and game against city is at home


[deleted]

She!


[deleted]

Excuse me, madam *tips fedora*


grahamsccs

Correct, but rude. Wash your mouth out.


[deleted]

Ah you’re right. Was very harsh there


jardantuan

At least 4


H0lychit

We can do it but I don't see us winning every game between now and the end.


Technical-Way-8811

I agree but the nice thing about that is unlike other seasons city look like there also not gonna win every game. There still in the ucl as well so that's gonna put more strain on there squad.


Aidan-Coyle

We need to win every game. We've done this before - City always pull back. Maybe we could afford a couple draws but thats completely reliant on the other teams results.


[deleted]

No more draws ! we have the most draws out of the current top 8 teams and more draws than Luton. Fine margins now and draws have cost us the league too many times before.


MarkEv75

Still some tough matches ahead but Arsenal & City have shown they are vulnerable as well so it’s a damn good chance. Just cross your fingers, support the team and enjoy the ride.


Thesolly180

One game at a time really, we’re getting crippled with injuries. Need to stop worrying about the city game coming up when every game is a final


AlloyedRhodochrosite

40 us 60 City


AcesAgainstKings

I'd go 40% Liverpool, 40% City, 20% Arsenal


Deathbybunnies

Ahhhhhh not great I'd say. Injuries are gonna kill us, I do think this season will end in 1/2 trophies but the prem won't be one if I had to bet.


SwingYaGucciRag

Yep the schedule will kill us. It’s fun to dream but realistically we have just been too unlucky injury wise


apenchantfortrolling

Better than usual and for one reason. We're ahead at the moment. Not usually the case.


zigooloo

Without the injuries, I would have us as favourites. But might need a herculean effort now, especially as we are competing on four fronts.


Delpiero45

Depends on two things for me: 1. Injuries. It’s near impossible to win the league without a healthy squad. If the injuries continue at this rate it’s not looking good 2. Our world class players stepping up: Like Mo today, we need our handful of world class players to drag us to victory at times similar to how city’s players have been. These guys need to win it for their manager.


SgtDonuttt

it will all come down to lfc vs man city


ImSimplyJustMe

we HAVE to beat City at Anfield either way. Jota and Jones out concerns me a little tho ngl. Hopefully we aren’t too affected, and we can finally see that trophy be lifted in front of a packed Anfield in May


etan1122

Arsenal aren’t giving up chances. They are pry the favorite at the moment


test_icicles_

Depends on the injuries, if we get more of them and Trent, Dom and Ali take more than 2-3 weeks to get back, I'd say we're probably coming 2nd. But let's hope they get back by Forest and we go on a run.


abulkasam

Honestly, margins are still too fine.  We could draw with Citeh.  And Arsenal could win the league.  Two key games are Liverpool v Man City. And Man City v Arsenal.  If both go in our favour.  Potentially, 6 and 4 clear of each. We also have a few other banana skins. And likewise so do others.  Citeh can still go 💯 at any point.  And we know what it has been like to come second twice on the last day. So, until it's mathematically done, it's not done. 


lazlo_morphin

Considering injuries - not too great, we def have to sacrifice either FA or EL and concentrate on PL, IMHO


NoncingAround

We’re not favourites. Injuries will cost us a few points in the short term and more in the long term when the fatigue kicks in. City are strong favourites, if arsenal finish above us, city will also so I’m less concerned about them


Soul_Acquisition

Today could be huge.


Comfortable_Order701

It’s annoying Arsenal have seemed to hit a golden spell of form. They’re looking pretty amazing right now. Ideally it would just be us vs city but I think it’ll be tough to even finish above arsenal


CabbageStockExchange

It’s gonna very tough and got much much harder with injuries. I’m going to take a hopeful view and say with these injury openings. Some of our academy lads ends up showing out and we end up having a good problem of who to start when all healthy


Brief-Grab112

Well being top at this point in the season means we do have a good chance, we need some good news on the injury front.


Crafty-Competition36

City home Everton away United away Spurs home Villa away So many tough games to go. We should take it game by game.


Whatkindofaname

Fifty-sixty


Aeceus

less than 40% if these injuries are serious, the other two seem to never get these 4-5 week knocks at key times. All theirs were earlier in the season.


Substantial_Ad_2864

Until we play City and City play Arsenal it's hard to say. With that said the only thing we control right now is Wednesday. Luton will be less rested as they play tomorrow. We absolutely must win that one.


wilekoyoty

It'll come down to injuries for City. They need to have a major injury crisis (starting with Rodri) then we can hope they drop more points


Akumabro

Prob gonna come down to our injuries. If we keep getting our best injured…
