Liverpool FC Team Talk, Gossip, Rumours 2024/25

they've done it so many times before under Pep

What are the other reasons?

I think they are looking a bit tired but with Trent and Jota back next week and endo getting a rest hope that freshens it up, robertston coming in the other night looked fresh and improved them alot.

I don't think they were poor last night or against united they controlled the games for most of it, just tried to play both games out and got caught, plus missing a hatful of chances against united didn't help.

Each time they did it is a reason to think they can do it again.

But they remain magnificent in full flow, have depth all across their side and the likes of Rodri and Foden are as good as anyone in world football right now at all the hard things that unlock games.

Sure, the cheating that has created this team is hateful. And indeed, the football itself is somewhat counter intuitively brutalist in the way it slowly strangles space and time before asphyxiating opponents. They would not be the first team I choose to watch.

Finally, Spurs away looks the only truly difficult game remaining on their schedule. Sure, every game is different at this time of the year, but they have played everyone else in the top six twice already.

Hopefully you find this explanation adequate for why I think they will win out!

Yeah, I know; but the poster was talking about City. Arsenal have a few tricky games remaining so chances are they'll drop points somewhere along the line.

If we are to win the league, probably need to win out. Seems harsh, but it is what it is

I know this is probably going to end 3-1 to city but still, it’s the hope that kills you!

Palace defence has more holes than a Swiss cheese here, they wasted a really good counter when 1 up, I think they needed that to have any hope.

I recall when we played Palace earlier this season they were given a penalty nearly 2 minutes after the incident because the VAR kept reviewing the footage to find something.

I'm wondering how that's not a penalty. City man grabbed palace player around the chest. Yes he went down like a sack of spuds but I thought that was a penalty.

There's no arguing with KDB

Exactly,I can't understand how some posters think they will drop points,they do this every year. To finish ahead of them then we need to win 7 and draw one,end of.

Can't rely on Spurs to do us any favors. Sure they can't do themselves any favors.

Have to get maximum points but think we will be pipped to the post.

I hate gambling but I figure I might set up a few bets on City to win each game. I'm terribly unlucky so would probably lose money but I'd be happy in that case.

They aren't playing Spurs on the last day, it is a fixture that still needs to rearranged. If they win the tie against Real Madrid then that match will be played on the midweek around the 15th May. If we only care about winning the league then we want those 2 to play each other in the semi's which might affect their matches around those.

For City the potential matches in that stretch are Forrest away 28 April, Arsenal/Bayern away 1 May, Wolves at home 4 May, Arsenal/Bayern home 7 May and then Fulham away 11 May and you only have the 15 May to fit in the Tottenham away match for City before the last match on the 19 May.

Arsenal have Tottenham away 28 April, City/Real home 1 May, Bournemouth home 4 May (12h30), City/Real away 7 May, Man U away 11/12 May.

I don't see many problems for City matchup wise, but the amount of fixtures with their smallish squad could cause problems. One or two injuries in important areas and they will struggle, even if they are lucky with injuries fatigue could well play a role as well.

Just to say this counts for us as well, I think all teams will do well to not lose 2 matches out of their remaining fixtures especially if City play Arsenal in the Champions League semi-finals.

Grateful for the two goals Palace scored, could have had two more in last 10 minutes, but a 4-4 was a dream to far.

I wonder will we have a run like Arsenal 5-0, 6-0, 6-0, 4-1 , or will it be a battle every game. Would be good to have some easy results

why would you argue with him 😂

Of course they are.

The media narrative that it's almost Liverpool's to lose, while Arsenal are the best team, is mental.

Brighton are a shell of their previous selves.

You got to hand it to Arsenal, they literally haven't needed to get out of 3rd gear their last two games

Thought Brighton could do something against Arsenal but they are a good team. Still seem a little emotional at times so you worry for them if in an important match in the future it is going against them whether they will be able to keep their cool, but that is not a problem for us.

We have to expect City and Arsenal to win all their remaining matches, even if there are reasons to think it will not happen. Hoping for them to slip up is not good for your mental health so not going to do that any more.

Used for your team or by Howard Webb covering for his var teams

Its a great race now for the 3 teams involved so let the best team win. Some tricky fixtures for all. City best equipped for me.

Hopefully it won't be a stupid decision by a referee or VAR that decides it.

Just can't see us going eight for eight. That six days where we have Fulham, Everton and West Ham away just feels like too much

I wish it wasn't, but such an obvious idea penalty it's not even funny.
