Administrator Stan 18,394 Posted April 10, 2021 Author Administrator Share Posted April 10, 2021 Not liking that Liverpool are only 4 points behind us with a seriously easier run-in than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Mel81x+ 3,616 Posted April 10, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted April 10, 2021 Its a weird gameweek because Chelsea, West Ham, Leicester and us really do have to keep the momentum going or there could be some serious position swapping come the end of it. Pleased with that result and I hope we stay consistent now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I haven't seen the offside but it will probably be one of those ones that is offside but liverpool fans dont think it should apply to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly an insurmountable gap... I think we look shite, for us to basically need to be perfect (already unlikely) and have you slip enough that we can catch up... I just think it’s incredibly unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it’s incredibly unlikely Look at our last 3 fixtures. Look at your run-in. It really isn't out of the question. You may have looked shite but you've just bagged 3 points. So you don't need to be perfect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I say perfect I mean getting the 3 points in all of the games remaining in the season. That’s a big ask for a good team in good form. It’s an even bigger task for a team in historically bad form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've done that today (well, under-par anyway) and still got 3 points and closed the gap. Tomorrow's game is hardly easy for us either. I don't think you can say your run in doesn't matter when it clearly does. You don't necessarily have to get 3 points in all the games considering we are quite unlikely to do so, either. Your last 3 are West Brom, Burnley and Palace. Ours are Chelsea, Man Utd and Spurs Very unlikely we'll get maximum points there so there goes the 'we'll need 3 points in all games remaining' angle...

We just beat the team that beat us 7-2 It's not ridiculously low though If it was 7 or 8 points I'd probably reluctantly agree. 4 points is quite simply a win and a draw in any 2 games where we don't win. Hardly beyond the realms of possibility! As for the 2nd bit, precisely!! You've beaten a lesser team that you succumbed to earlier on in the season...

I will see it later. However I know that fans have a habit of saying the decisions are wrong if they dont understand then. A lot of fans just think when they draw the lines they just make it up but I watched this story on sky sports about how they work it out. Just because fans dont understand doesn't mean it's wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the issue at centre back is always going to mean we get inconsistent results though. It's not the two lads fault who are filling in there, but they are way short of what's required and it does have a knock on effect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
