As a neutral I hope ye's semi-bottle it only to retain your bottle on that last day and suarez gets the medal he deserves. Will he move on though or stick around for champions league next year?

I don't think he'll be a lifer anyway

A lifer? Like Gerrard who came up through the youth system? He's not from Liverpool and has already played in Uruguy & Holland so cant qualify as a lifer.

As to whether he stays or not, I think it'll come down to the attraction of living in a warm, latin-speaking country if the likes of Madrid or Barca are ready to stump up 70m+. I hope he stays and he seems happy, but he is extremely ambitious and may want an even bigger stage for his talents. No point speculating till the summer, we have enough to be getting on with.

Suarez's aim at the start of the season was to play in the champions league, Liverpool have that sewn up now so I reckon unless a stupid offer comes in then he will stay

I keeping going through lots of mini league tables in my head, trying different outcomes in the different games to see what would happen. And while doing this I realised that if we at least get a draw with Chelsea then there's no way we can lose the title before the last day of the season, we'd still be in with a chance on the 11th. Tried to then remember the last time we had a chance if winning the title on the last day, and unfortunately it was '89!

So now I'm hoping it all comes good and we win it before then!

If you cross reference it with posters from this thread who regularly post in After Hours you should find the culprit.

Actually, the hilarious thing is that this thread is going to be full of the most maudlin sentiment if we do win the thing. Endless long dribbly posts about how we all thought we'd be cold in the ground before Liverpool would win the title. 'I was a kid when Liverpool last won the league and I barely remember it...' blah, blah, ****ing blah. Can't wait to read each one...twice!!

Anyone read the "Where will Man Utd finish this season" thread, from September last year.

Some very interesting posts . Many had us barely making top 6.

5th was my prediction. I thought we could overhaul 2 of the 6 teams ahead of us last year but not 3. And I didn't think that was being conservative. I honestly thought City, Chelsea and Arsenal would be out of reach and United would be a mystery bag but still ahead of us.

Now it looks like 1st or 2nd is very likely and I still don't believe it. Walking into work today I was thinking about next season. Whether we win the league or not it's going to be incredible hearing the CL music at Anfield again. Hope we get a massive team in our group early on at home. Great fun.

As for the league, Sunday will tell all. I'm worried some people are counting chickens a bit early but that's the pessimist in me that thought 5th was optimistic. People say we deserve it but I disagree that you can say that right now. If we throw it away we won't deserve it. It's been in our hands for weeks now and we've kept going again and again. If we go again and again and again, just 3 more times, there's no doubt we deserve it.

I'll be in the same bar on Sunday in my same seat (on the very edge). We go again.

I have said it before but it will go like that as soon as we lose a game. You can see a bit of overflow when we go a goal behind and few of them jump the gun, only to be back in their box by the final whistle. When we lose nothing will hold them back even the 'reformed' ones who have learned from their mistakes will be out.

But it means we are doing something right.

Same here, thought we'd be in a fight with for 5th, depending on whether Spurs would make the jump over Arsenal, which would have seen us in 6th. Thought Everton would drop back a little after Moyes leaving.

Yeah a whole lot of what do we do now? We waited so long for the league that it became the whole of following Liverpool.



Next season, we go again.

I'm a greedy bastard, so I want more trophies.

If we win, I'll celebrate it in some delirious ecstatic matter, and enjoy it to the full. But come next August, that dream will very much be back again and I hope the team chase it with as much fervor as they are doing this season.

Turtyturd

Barcelona's every trophy in a season is the next logical step.

Or Arsenals most days spent on top of the league trophy.

United mates: Yous have it wrapped up.
Chelsea mates: We'll have the CL, yous have it wrapped up
Arsenal mates: We're grand with the F.A cup, yous have it wrapped up
Me: I dunno, there are still at least 3 dog rough fixtures, and Jaysus even Newcastle could throw a spanner in the works.
Everyone again: Yous have it wrapped up.
Me again: It's not wrapped up.

And if/when we don't get it...
Everyone: AHAHAHAHAHAH YOU DIDN'T GET IT.

The way I feel about our title bid is like if you're in a nightclub and get chatting to a really nice girl and you're getting on great. If you got the shift sure that's great but if not at least you were in her company and all your mates saw you talking to her.



AH **** THAT GET THE SHIFT.

Meh, not for me. 2005 bought me endless levels of patience with Rafa. If we do close this out down the stretch I'll be satisfied for a long time and - barring threat of relegation or a complete absence of CL qualification or Cup challenges like last season - there'll be little in the way of pressure from me. My posting on here circa 2007 - 2010 attests to that.

Not quite right, at the moment we're shifting the face off her.
We're 3 more shifts away from going home with her.

The dream will be over next season isn't everyone telling us that because we finished 7th and had no european football is the only reason we are in with a chance of winning the league.

Well utd will walk away with the league next season after pumping £300m on new players after finishing 7th and having no european football next season.

So we all now know all you have to do to win the league is finish 7th every second year and don't play in europe.

From a Danish newspaper:



Translation:
Have you seen this man?
Interpol are searching for this 51-year old man, believed to be a Portugeese national. He is suspected of destroying a football match in Madrid on Tuesday night.
People are advised not to approach the man, as he can become very angry.

It is true though ! I have 3 superstitions now . I need to wear this seasons home jersey my long sleeve one . I don't post in a match until the game has kicked off and I don't wear a Liverpool jersey the day before a game .
