So you can accuse me of something. But I can't deny it without supporting your accusation?

I'm not TELLING anyone anything. I'm ASKING their opinions because I'm interested.

I think you'd be better suited over on the David Icke thread mate.

You need to ask 30 people on the internet to form your own opinion?

....

Is RDD starting up his own TV Game Show that is football related?

Our survey said -(:”&

----------------------------------------------------------------------
You survey 1000 people and see if you can find one that agrees with him.

I doubt it'll make it past the pilot.

On topic please fellas.

Speaking as a Liverpool fan, I think United have a good chance of winning the title.

Whilst Liverpool have the better manager and better squad, we’ve also been decimated by defensive injuries and that’s crucial to any title winning side.

If United can stay within a few points with 10 games to go then it’s sometimes just a momentum game.

You don't fancy anyone else to find form. Spurs, City, Chelsea certainly have the players.

My own opinion is that its a bit of both.

The manager and individual players have been poor / made errors / aren't good enough, however everybody but Liverpool seem to be dealing with similar issues.

For the record I do think you'll go on a winning run and open up a bit of a gap. However, if you don't, then I hope and expext United to be right in there trying to take advantage.

I suppose a danger for Liverpool, with the injuries, is that they have to play players more often than they'd like which could lead to further injuries/fatigue.

They're more likely to stretch their lead than slip up imo, they're years ahead of us in building a team and style to win stuff. We've just got to keep plugging away, and recruit some very good players if we want to get back to the level we were used to.

Injuries get everyone

Didn't City wina title without KDB and Lapworth for best part of the season?


We have misses Bailly, Shaw, Pogba for prolonged periods along the way.

Or improve those we have and only add the absolute best

What I would stress is that 2-3 teams that thought they were in for a title charge with Liverpool have fell by the wayside - most recently Spurs.

I think if we win our next 3, culminating in beating you lot then we might not surrender our lead but it’s a big ask given our back line.

Ideally, we can’t lose to you at Anfield but a win would be a HUGE result for either side

Last season we picked up 66 points, 28 first half, 38 second, so we've been averaging 2 points a game for a while now.

76 points won't win you many titles, I'd say we are c. 10% short of really being in the mix, though Martial/Greenwood finding some form could reduce/eliminate that.

Overall, from where we are today, finishing outside the top 4 would be a sackable offence, even below 3rd would be disappointing.

I'm genuinely not thinking about finishing 1st, I'm just thinking about who are we playing next. I think Villa we can pick up a win, and I'd be fine with a draw against Liverpool

But my expectations for this season was top 4 minimum, and at least push for the title, Im not expecting to win it, but at least try and challenge, which half way through the season we seem to be.. but there's still another half of a season to go

2 points per game average should be the target every season. Turn a couple of defeats into wins and that's 82 points. That could take us close.

Really? I think its far too early to say we have to finish 3rd or better

didn't say we have to, just that it would be disappointing if we didn't.

i think before the season most people would have had us 4th, but we're now 4 points above chelsea, with a game in hand...if we do hit 2 points a game, chelsea for instance would need 50 points from their final 22 games = 15 wins, 5 draws, 2 defeats, and i don't think they're good enough for that (ditto everton, leicester, spurs).

of course if we lose to villa we all may need to reassess (!)

That's it. Just 1 or 2 games and the table cannot very different.

Great position to be in right now. Lets hope it continues.

Itl be interesting to see what we all have to moan about of it does continue though haha

I was never completely happy with SAF and the squad.
I didn't want sacked though, nor Di I want Ole sacked.
And I'm not sure the majority did, and if so it wasn't a big one.

Said at the start of the season 75 points should be the aim and see where that takes us.

It would show clear progress.
