Aye, it was clear a while ago that we weren't going to score enough, or win enough to burst in, we were sixth for fecking aaaages.
Europa or bust now.
Would take a ridiculous run for us to get top 4 now. Time to give it up surely?
Give up.Not going to happen.Something strange would need to happen to the planet for us to suddenly click in front of goal.
Don't know why some of our fans are so desperate for it, it's not like we are anywhere near ready to win the champs league and we don't need the money that it brings right now. And as proven we don't need it as a lure to bring in big players. P
It's always about bringing in the right players rather than the big names or,as we saw in LVG first season,a almost mindless scatter gun approach.
It will cost us £80m if we don't make it. Even for is that's a lot of money.
If we fail in Europe, the board won't be pleased.

Our new sleeve sponsor will cover that loss.
Imagine if we lost out on that money and then the scouts would actually do their jobs.
Our scouts worldwide view on football probably relies heavily of Fifa and Championship manager games
Ed will work it out, the stewards and ball boys aren't even sponsored yet.
Jose has to concentrate on the Europa now. And if we don't win it the owners have a tough decision to make.

No they don't. If we don't make the CL Jose will be fine
There are loads of positives for this season that the club will look at. Jose will be given time to fix the squad he inherited and will have a better fit for what he wants to work with next season
CL or not, the club aren't so stupid as to sack Jose.
With Liverpool and City winning today, it's looking very unlikely now tbh, we have to win all 3 of our games in hand just to go level with Liverpool.
We have to play City, Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal. Realistically how many points are we going to gain/lose there?
Europa or no hope-a

Reckon we'll lose to Spurs, beat Arsenal and get draws in the other two

You wont win any of them. Arsenal are starting to regain some form. To be honest facing United doesnt really frighten anyone anymore. I'd be pretty confident of a win maybe not absolute battering like last season but a win all the same.

Form?
You've been awful for weeks and then had the fortune to play one of the worst form sides in the league who always roll over for you

Most confident about the Arsenal game to be honest, don't know what it is, but even when we are 5hite you bottle it
Like death and taxes, some things are certain in life. Aresnal bottling it and us beating them.

Klopp tried his hardest to make the opposite happen
Fack off robb.
You mean he had no sturridge, hendo, lallana, or mane and coutinho is so ill he's lost 3kg in 3 days so couldn't play the whole game (I'm amazed he played any part) and firmino is suffering from burnout.
Klopp used what was left, and we won. Happy days.

Nice spin.
He realised at half time he made a massive mistake and took off his young players (they'll feel awesome after that) for the two decent ones.
Even then you guys nearly suffered after stoke missed some huge chances
