But, but, what about man united ? 😆

Dunno how you can write man utd off so easily especially as the past 30 years they've always got the better of us. We should finish above them with the advantage we have but to completely write them off is so naive.

Injuries have hurt us a great deal and with that the lack of rotation at times has also brought us burn out and suspensions. Psychologically it also feels like something is missing.

Every time we've made too many changes, it's cost us games.

Lenglet and Carlos are not able to fill at the level needed, even if both have had some good games.

Konsa at right back works some but not all of the time,  he's not done badly but you can tell it's not his natural position.

Dendonker (before the loan) and Tim haven't been able to fill in for Kamara or Doug, I don't think even if we had the former still with us it would have made much difference. Tim is too raw and needs more experience. Tielmans is being asked to drop deep and so is McGinn and neither really suit central positions

We have always had enough players in attack to rotate a bit, Diaby, Duran, Tielmans (when he plays further up), Rogers and even Zaniolo (occasionally) offer some opportunity to rotate.

But we have no real cover for Cash and KKH seems unlikely to get any game time. Obviously we have a young player who is joining in the summer to help provide cover for Ramsey etc.

But at this point we are truly limping towards fifth place.

Why dont you weak minded guys go and support one of the “big” clubs. It’s easier for you, probably what you need.

It’s not naive at all based on their performances this season. Look at how many shots they’ve given up in this game. Liverpool had enough chances to win three games.

This is the most reactionary thread I’ve seen on this site. Goes from ‘top five is ours, United have not been in the question for weeks’ to ‘we’ve bottled it, CL is over’ every few days like an insane pendulum. Changing opinions is one thing but pretending anything has been obvious for ages is silly

Relax. No way United see this out, and even if they do they still won’t catch us.

Look at our fixtures vs theirs

If they somehow end up losing this game, and we beat Arsenal the Title Race thread will be on the front page again 😂

You know how we are....

" Unlikely but look... If we win our remaining 5 games ... It's totally feasible that the top 3 will drop points against everyone else they play... It's a tough league "
