Hopefully wins for Southampton, Forest, Leicester, Bournemouth

I'm hoping Bournemouth get back into form tomorrow and put about five past spuds

Close from Haaland a few minute ago.

Nico with quite a strike too, think it clipped the post, maybe just the side netting.

0-0 HT. Shocking game.

Hudson-Odoi shot, saves on to the post by Ederson!

Forest 1-0 Citeh, Hudson-Odoi!

Forest lead Hudson-Odoi!

Forest 1-0 Man City, FT. Very big result for them in terms of making the Champions League.

Citeh. :haha:

Raul Jiminez puts Fulham in front at Brighton

Brighton have never beaten Fulham in the Premier League

Also a lot of these mid table teams like Palace and Fulham, seem to be more confident playing away from home than they are at home

Brighton equalise - Hecke (the goalscorer, not an expression of dismay on my part…I literally don’t care who wins this game)

Also it’s Van Hecke apparently

Southampton keeping Liverpool at bay thus far (Nunez missing loads of chances helps)

You’d have to go back to 2013 for Southampton’s last win at Anfield (which is still more recent than our last win there)

No they're not, they're winning :lol:

Ah I wouldn’t worry too much, they did the same with us back in October. Then we woke up

Nunez avoids a red card

You’ve really got to get rid of this guy…he’s an utter liability

Football is a weird fucking sport.

Southampton (and not just Southampton) seem to be better away from home than at home. They are only awful away from home :lol: as opposed to catastrophically awful.

Plus as I said to SIB, Southampton took the lead against us (thanks Sterling) but we woke up and still win quite convincingly

Oh yeah I mean no way are Southampton getting anything here but there will be teams much, much higher in the league that offer far less at Anfield.

Southampton nothing to lose have they. Utter free hit

Even so, it's funny how that can level things out enough to at least give a challenge.

Slot makes three changes (bit knee jerk ask me) but Nunez stays on

True, but also maybe add a bit of Liverpool complacency into the mix. The title is pretty much theirs, the irony is if we were closer in the table to them they’d be three goals to the good already

Ramsdale makes big save to deny Elliot

1-1 Nunez.

1-1 Nunez

Made up for terrible first half and almost getting himself sent off

2-1 Salah pelanty.

Salah (another pel) makes it 2-1 Liverpool

Odd score lines in Germany. Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Dortmund all losing at home

(Well not so strange for Dortmund, their season is in free fall)

Bayern 2-3 Bochum

Leverkusen 0-2 Werder Bremen

Dortmund 0-1 Augsburg

Palace 1-0 Ipswich, Sarr.

Oh, oh well :(

Another penalty. Handball :doh:

I think it was his handball earlier in the season. Silly.

And 3-1.

Another pel to Liverpool.

3-1 Salah with his second.

Liverpool and Salah’s 9th pel of the season

Brighton 2-1 Fulham, João Pedro pelanty!

Speaking of Pels, Brighton go 2-1 up through Pedro pel
