I don't think we'll go unbeaten, City will be the only team to beat us I fear.

Pessimist! I reckon we can beat them, IF our back four are strong and the midfield hold them up. Their back four is vulnerable and that is their Achilles Heel...so look on the bright side, we can't be scared of that team all the time.

We can stop City scoring. Have you noticed they always seem to score by getting to the byline then cutting the ball back for someone to tap in?

Cut off that avenue and weather their early spell of pressure and I reckon we can get at least a draw there.

Maybe but I just fear they will be very fired up to prove a point, not saying we couldn't beat them, we very clearly could I just feel if any team beats us from our remaining fixtures its most likely City IMO.

They can be as fired up as they like...we’re better than them.

Mind the gap lads..

I must say as an Arsenal fan I am a great admirer of this Liverpool side & particularly Jurgen Klopp. If Liverpool are on the TV I always watch them because it is a joy to see their style of attacking play and I will be happy to see them win the league this season.

As for all he shit about the FA Cup, as Klopp has rightly pointed out the replay is during the winter break and the received notification from the Premier League, as did all clubs, requesting that they respect the winter break and not schedule any matches. Yet the FA scheduled the replay during this time period, it's totally unfair and utter bollocks that they should be expected to sacrifice their winter break to play a rematch with a significantly lower team in a 3rd ranked tournament out of 4 while all the other teams get to rest.

Yeah as I say from our remaining fixtures, if we play to the level we have so far, they are the only team capable of beating us. Plus that game is right after an international break, we usually are pretty rusty after them. Just cos we're 19 points clear doesn't mean they'll just role over and let us tickle there tummies.

Makes a change as most fans from other clubs cant stand us, how we play is apparently "boring" or "lucky" for some reason. Pure jealousy is the only thing I can think of.

As for the FA Cup thing, it's a non issue. PL buckled and gave PL teams a break, a break in which they asked no team play an international friendly yet the FA arrange cup replays for that exact date. Nearly all PL managers have the same grievance.

Anyone see the new statue of Bob Paisley unveiled today?
