Dr Gloom 21756 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) Lads, if we win tomorrow we’re 9 points ahead of them with one game in hand. Overturning 9 points (plus one extra due to our superior GD) seems highly unlikely. Win our next two games and it’s done.

I honestly think how VAR is being applied this season is highly suspicious. I’m reading about this sort of thing happening time and again, and it always seems to favour the so-called big 6. They either need to get VAR run by independent and competent officials with no fear or favour, or do away with it altogether. At the moment it’s looking like a lever to get undeserved results for certain clubs. I wouldn’t mind if that included us, but it plainly doesn’t- someone at NUFC must have missed the brown envelope drop at Euston station this season. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44090 Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 No doubt who the best team in the country is after last night anyway. Arsenal have had a great season and Arteta deserves massive credit, but Man City will deservedly win the title. We could do with Pep winning the treble and deciding to call it quits tbh. He's the cheat codes. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13760 Posted April 27, 2023 Author Share Posted April 27, 2023 Liverpool could easily not drop another point tbh. They’ve got their better players back and the refs aren’t even pretending that they’re impartial when it comes to them anymore. Luckily for us, we’ll be going unbeaten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily for us, we’ll be going unbeaten The 3 games they've just won on the bounce is the most consecutive wins they've had all season in the PL. Prior to this, the most they'd managed was two on the bounce. But now they're just gonna "easily" extend this run and win 9 in a row to end the season. That's Premier League winning form for a club that's spent nearly the entire season faltering outside of the top 6. I don't see it happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying it will but I am saying they’re capable at full strength, which they pretty much are now and haven’t been all season. As much as Klopp looks tired, there’s enough muscle memory there where they can turn it on again. It can’t be ignored that the lads running VAR are literally finding ways for them to win as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44090 Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Man City's longest run of PL wins this season is 7 and they're unreal. Arsenal's longest run of PL wins this season is 5 and they've had an unreal season. It would be a big shocker if Liverpool put a 9 game winning streak on after the season they've had. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21756 Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 The only thing to say about Liverpool is their remaining fixtures are probably the easiest out of anyone.

Liverpool this year are a shadow of their former selves. They're playing teams away from home fighting for their lives, exactly the type of games they tend to lose. If they get 71 points, they will have won all 6 games and their goal difference will be better by at least 6. In that scenario, if we also get 71 points then it will come down to goal difference. Therefore, if we get 72 points we would be guaranteed to be above them. I think we can expect to get 13 points from our next 7. I think it’s quite unlikely that Liverpool win all 6, but it’s a possibility. I think our mentality should be we need 72 points. We should expect Liverpool to win all their games, however unlikely that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't based on nothing though is it. He's not saying it's likely but it is a possibility given Liverpool's mini revival and their easy run in. Plus it would be just like these cunts to go on a run and pip us to 4th. Also, our GD doesn't really come into it with them as theirs is pretty decent too and they're more than capable of spanking someone 5/6-0. I'm fairly confident that we'll finish in the top 4 but I'm not overly confident about it at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
