Who will be next to reach 19 League Titles?

What's the chances Chelsea or Man City will reach 19 league titles before Liverpool? Here is my take based on the facts...

Arsenal - 13 titles
Chelsea - 4 titles
Giroboys - 18 titles
Citeh - 2 titles

I am sure it will be Arsenal. Despite the problems with their squad at the moment I think they will be able to sort it before Chelsea catches them. Livpl have shown that money doesn't buy sense. They're buying the same dross they were buying under Houlier, Rafa and Hodgson - the only difference is they're breaking club records to buy them £20-£35m. So I don't see them winning it for atleast another 5 years (or until kenny is sacked). Citeh and Chelsea might battle it out neck and neck to reach the 19 by which time Utd will be at least another 19 titles ahead.

That's true albooney, I don't think another club will reach 19 titles for at least another 20 years. Maybe more.

"by which time Utd will be at least another 19 titles ahead."

Only if Fergie is still in charge for another 20+ seasons.

Could be Sunderland. They have 6 already. (More than Chelsea.)

Look how many clubs in Europe have overtaken Liverpool since they last won the title three decades ago: united barca bayern inter ac juve ajax. Liverpool were number two in Europe behind real In league and big ears for a while. Now several clubs have overtaken them

liverpool, under dalglish will continue to flatter to deceive, and seem intent on spending over the odds for championship quality players.

Where do people get this stuff!

When have we flattered to decieve?

When have we bought Championship quality players?

How do the people that write this stuff manage to dress themselves in the morning?

I know it's the Summer holidays but, kids, have some self respect

You have flattered to deceive in the sense that your fans & players always start the season with high hopes and by the end of the season, you end up with crushed dreams. In other words; you think you're better than you actually are.

Even this season, some of the Liverpool fans on 606 have said they've got the best midfield in the league or that they would be the first team in Premier League history to go from sixth to first within a season. Obviously, it is not beyond the realms of possibility for Liverpool to reach the pinnacle of their history in the PL and actually finish top, but the likelihood of it happening is minimal, I'm afraid.

I hate to sound so blunt, but your fans need to get grasp of reality. Your squad are not yet good enough to win the league. Manchester City, Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea & Manchester United all have (arguably) better squads than you still and paying over the odds for self-aggrandized, overrated English dross will not help your cause.

I'm not having a dig at Liverpool or the manager, I am just saying things how I see it, so please, do not hurl a tirade of abuse at me or accuse me of WUMming because I know how sensitive some of you 'Pool fans are.

I rarely abuse on 606

Anyways - you're right.

How the hell dare we have hops for the forth coming season? It's completely out of order.

I didn't say you shouldn't have hopes of regaining Champions League status. Of course, that's more pragmatical. I said you shouldn't be targeting winning the Premier League when your squad is quite evidently not up to it just yet.

Seems we have found some common ground then

Liverpool have spent 100m on good squad players bar the cheat. They should have strengthened their first team more with that colossal budget
