Good weekend for Liverpool. Starting to think we might actually have a chance to win the league. Need to win all our remaining games though, particularly Chelsea and City and Anfield.
Arsenal did us a favour by turning up. Crystal Palace an even bigger favour. Mourinho knows how to talk rubbish for a living though.
Even nicer to see that Man Utd are completely irrelevant. Time to get used to mid-table obscurity for a few years.
Liverpool have so far been lucky :rolleyes:
Not with their football which has been excellent but with Suarez staying free of injury and being very consistent in his play and goal scoring. Without him for periods I think they would be around Everton's position and Brendan Rodgers will need to strengthen his team for next season to keep the challenge going when the injuries strike. You only have to look at the injury lists for Arsenal, Everton and Spurs to see the difference in the Top 3 and Top 6. I think Liverpool are the best 'team' in the Premiership but they have some tough matches against City and Chelsea and a returning Aguero and a rejuvenated Silva will take some stopping!
Suarez gets my player of the season award though providing he doesn't bite anyone before it ends of course :rolleyes:
Alf I think the fact we can draw at Liverpool and Everton puts us in a pretty strong position. And that's if Liverpool win every one of their other games. I think we'll both probably draw or lose a game more than expected but the fact we have a slight cushion AND incredible form which very few are actually talking about means I am pretty happy with where we are.:cool:Quote:

Another footballing lesson, can't be long now before they score.
Barcelona given a 14 month transfer ban by FIFA, can't make any signings until summer 2015
Stuart Pearce to take over as Nottingham Forest manager at the end of the season on a 2 year contract
3-1 to the frogs over abramovitch's lads.
Game on.
Things going well at Elland Road Stags? Losing £1 million a month, players not being paid, administration just around the corner, happy days.Quote:

If it all goes tits up at your all yarkshire relegation clash at Barnsley in a couple of weeks he could be looking at owning a League One club:)Quote:

Just noticed how much the Fulham manager Magath looks like Penfold from Danger Mouse ;)

Could see you in a couple of years then mate as the new Leeds are on their way up and Morecambe are on their way down, money troubles here as well, wage bill to be cut again next season so the Conference could be beckoning. No friendly eye-ties to help us out:(Quote:

I liked Sherwood's enthusiasm and his willingness to take risks, though sometimes he was a bit naive.Quote:

Hughton sacking was an obvious gamble by Norwich that the "new manager effect" might get them enough points to be safe.
Well done Chelsea :cool:
I didn't give them much of a chance believing PSG would at least get a goal. Probably why I don't bet :rolleyes:
Well you're not alone in your lack of football predictive skills, Jose predicted a final aggregate score of 4:3 Pah what does he know...Quote:

It'll be interesting to see how they go, reliant on loan signings..
Mourinho is class, you have to like him. It's actually pretty open, I'd make Bayern or Madrid favourites but everyone seems to be tumbling so quite fancy Chelsea to do a Chelsea..
What about United? City were 2-0 down in Munich and won 3-2. I don't see why United can't upset the odds.Quote:

Not quite true. If City had scored one more goal they would have won the group and Bayern would have been runners up!Quote:
