    Playing Man City without Haaland and Newcastle without Isak in consecutive games is absolutely ridiculous.

    Almost as ridiculous as playing us without Saliba and Gabriel getting injured during the game

    They’ve had almost everything go in their favour this season, we’ve had nothing


    Don’t get me wrong we are architects of our own problems in many ways. And it’s not to say Liverpool wouldn’t be winning the title anyway, but fuck me it’s been made easy for them in every conceivable way

    If Salah, Van Dijk and Alexander-Arnold all fuck off in the summer, I can take it.

    But fuck me it's galling see their football work so effectively (and I hate how they play football quite honestly).

    Yeah my Liverpool supporting friend is pretty stunned with how easy this has fallen for them. No competition at all for a title is a pretty rare thing but they’ve done what they had to do so fair play.

    I'm fine with how they play, I don't get all the hate - unless it's just pure jealousy

    I've never quite bought into your luck thesis, but maybe where we differ is really only the level of luck they have compared with actually...they're just a good side.
    But they're not a great side and yes, the Haaland and Izak thing is pretty ridiculous. They have had luck with decisions and with injuries.
    Had we not had all our injuries we'd be a lot closer to them, I reckon, and it could be a decent title race.
    But we aren't, so it isn't. It's a shame to see the title wrapped up before February is out.

    Lofted ball out wide over and over again.

    Sure, good fun if you like NFL.

    I can assure you don't

    At least it's at pace and some great passing - they also defend well - or have today

    Plus they have no objection to using a proper left back which is nice to see

    I think where we differ is over your perception of what I said to begin with, where I said they’ve been lucky you read it as they only were top due to luck
