Loss Everton away, derby match and Everton fighting for their lives. Loss West Ham away, have lost one game at home since September. Draw Home to Spurs, Draw Away to Villa. Villa win Home to Wolves. Dunno. Loss. Why not? They just lost at home to Palace. 73 points total for them. Villa need 11 points from the other 15 available to finish 3rd. We can even afford to lose today. It's in the bag Ok to reassess. Lost to Everton was right, but won vs Fulham. Today losing to West Ham. Then lose to Spurs and Villa. 74 points with 1 game to play. Villa beat Chelsea, Brighton. And we're a point ahead with one game to go against Palace. The cat is in the bag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 We were never making 8 points in 4 games. Liverpool have had 23 shots today. 72% possession. They’re a very dangerous attacking goal scoring team despite recent blips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing at Anfield will be a different experience but away from home if you get on top of them I'm not sure how much "fight" they will have. I don't think we'll finish above / close to them - but I'm glad we are playing them at VP and Spurs have them at Anfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinker Posted April 27 VT Supporter Share Posted April 27 Liverpool, what a mess, klopp kicking off with the substitutes before they came on, Salah lost it with him. Bit of a car crash end to his lpool career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Personally think Liverpool had overachieved this season with the team they have. Expected them to finish around 3rd and looks like that will happen. To win a league with a new midfield is a long shot. They still create a lot of chances every game so hopefully they can take some of them against Spurs. Edited April 27 by Vive_La_Villa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a car crash end to his lpool career. Get our set pieces right on the day and we'll beat them. Way to look at things now. Spurs got two games in hand. Let's just give them two wins v Burnley and Sheffield United. If that's not by a combined 5 goals they're still below us. To finish above us they'd then have to do a point better than us in these four fixtures: Arsenal and Man. City at home, Chelsea and Liverpool away. That's a very tough ask for me. If people are saying they can beat Chelsea and Liverpool then why can't we seeing as we're playing both at home. We also have Brighton who just want the season to end now and we do very well against them even when they're in form as we saw in the September match. We'd really have to throw away 4th now. We were vulnerable after the Man. City and Brentford games and Spurs completely messed up the chance to put us under even more pressure by losing heavily at Newcastle. Since then we've played with far more confidence in the prem games so it's really hard to see us suddenly choking. Also don't think Olympiakos will be as taxing as the Lille games were and we also have extra recovery from the second leg so to me it's all looking pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again Chelsea and Liverpool just going to hand the game to Spurs...but play lights out v us. We've got both at VP, Spurs have to play them infront of their home fans where it's different expectations and teams find extra 10% if they're starting to get on their backs. All we have to do is match Spurs results v them and then get 4 points off Brighton-Palace and then Spurs would have to do the same v Arsenal and Man. City which is a tough ask.

Home v away advantage means nothing though? Spurs have only actually beaten us on the road since December so they're actually in their worst away run of the season.
