Liverpool have 3 world class players returning from injury. That is a major boost. Liverpool have Europa League to deal with on Thursday nights. All season, instead of Europa League being a problem, it has helped Liverpool. It has allowed multiple players to get game time meaning more players are sharp and in form. It has helped us keep rhythm when needed. It will help to play the players returning from injury back into form. Over the last 2 seasons Arsenal have largely avoided difficult stretches of playing 3 games a week. What they are about to experience is like nothing they have experienced before. Not to mention that all the pressure is on them. City are a different beast because they have the experience and have shown they can do it on multiple fronts. But City are behind us.

An unwillingness to be hell bent on victory and throw caution to the wind. Exhibited by multiple managers, including the current one. The team with the most wins is going to be difficult to top in the standings. The one with the fewest losses can be overcome.
When was the last time we were drawing and we've said "the hell with it" and thrown on forwards and finished with two defenders on the field?
Does anyone do that? Multiple times have ended up with 4/5 out and out attackers on the pitch just this season, does that suffice?
We are where we are. Now its CL qualification at all costs, don't really know how Klopp pulls this out but we can't go back to where we started. Things need to change, sharpish.
11 points clear of 5th, 8 clear of 4th with a game in hand... don't think CL qualification is a concern, is it?
Nobody... but again, at a minimum 3 of these 4 really shitty results were pretty close to easy, comprehensive wins. And I exempted the Palace game because I didn't watch the 2nd half because I was so pissed, but that too was a 3 xg match for LFC in which the simple things didn't happen. So again, to me that looks like it should have been a result of SOME kind other than a loss. Maybe I'm being naive but I'm just assuming the boat is righted, as I don't think it will take some revolutionary change. I just figure some of these goals start going in. Because THIS isn't the norm... this is a run of fixtures that have been against the norm, as generally LFC have not had issues scoring this season.
I’m not sure we win another game. The crazy thing is that we’re well positioned for the title and I do think that neither City nor Arsenal will win out. Had we been playing December/January football, we’d probably win this thing. As it stands, the only thing I’m confident about is that we should hold onto 3rd place.
I think everyone’s tune will change with one good performance. Now can that good performance please be Sunday against Fulham.
Oh come on now, anyone saying they don't think we'll win another game doesn't actually believe that. Even during the worst of the worst, we never went 6 games winless. That said it wouldn't surprise me if we only won 1 or 2
Well, given that of the 4 games in concern w eshould have won the two league games, I think this is all a lot of silly handwringing. Throw a good (a very good and deserved) Atalanta performance into that and it's actually quite easily imaginable. If you can't beat Fulham when you absolutely have to then you don't deserve the league. i'm willing the team I know that can beat Fulham to go and beat them. I dont; know what the hell some of the rest of you are thinking about.....
Well, every time in the past few games, that we’ve expected a response, thought the team had hit rock bottom, they’ve managed to break through rock bottom and find a whole new world we never knew existed.
