With Utd and Arsenal out the way, Liverpool are in a position where winning will mean twice as much for the next few games.

On Sunday, 6 of the top 7 (& 8 of the top 12) play against each other, before we play Swansea as another 2 of the top 9.

Tottenham V Man Utd 12:00
Southampton V Chelsea 14:05
Man City V Burnley 15:00
Stoke V West Brom 15:00
West Ham V Arsenal 15:00
Newcastle V Everton 16:15

Liverpool V Swansea 20:00

With such a fortunate fixture list, the minimum hope has to be maintaining the distance to third and fourth, but with Southampton likely to be beaten by Chelsea, and a tricky game away at Spurs for United, it could be that a win could mean much more than just points on the board...

The following Thursday, Liverpool are at home to bottom-placed Leicester. A team that will be bottom on the day as they are already 5 adrift. 6 of the top 11 face each of other, with 4 of the top 7 as it stands facing off. If results go our way, Liverpool could be 4 points from third if they win both games.

Stoke V Man Utd 12:45
Hull V Everton 15:00
Liverpool V Leicester 15:00
Man City V Sunderland 15:00
Newcastle V Burnley 15:00
QPR V Swansea 15:00
Southampton V Arsenal 15:00
West Ham V West Brom 15:00
Tottenham V Chelsea 17:30

After a relatively opportunistic tie against Wimbledon, when most of the top half face off against premier league and championship fodder, the next weekend brings about one more opportunity...

Leicester V Newcastle 15:00
Tranmere V Swansea 15:00

Man City V Sheff Wed 15:00
Southampton V Ipswich 15:00
Stoke V Wrexham 15:00
Yeovil V Man Utd 15:30
Chelsea V Watford 16:00
Arsenal V Hull 17:30

Burnley V Tottenham 19:45
Wimbledon V Liverpool 19:55

Everton V West Ham 19:45

Liverpool away at Sunderland is a decent fixture and upgrade from Leicester to move on from, especially relevant when 10 of the current top 12 play each other again that weekend.

Sunderland V Liverpool 12:45
Chelsea V Newcastle 15:00
Everton V Man City 15:00
Swansea V West Ham 15:00
Crystal Palace V Tottenham 17:30

Arsenal V Stoke 13:30
Man Utd V Southampton 16:00

If Liverpool can win the 3 league games, and put a 4 match winning run together for the first time since the incredible 11 we had managed before that dreaded Chelsea game last season, we could just be back in the reckoning quicker than the fanbase can write off Rodgers and the media write off our chances. That's without mentioning that Liverpool away at Villa is the next league fixture, when City play Arsenal.

As much as I was incredibly unconvinced by our display today, we won playing ugly...

If we have to do that to get the next three wins, maybe even four, I'll take it. It's a big ask on current form and results, but times look good before we face off with Chelsea in that fateful League Cup Semi...

And don't forget the jan transfer window is only days away !!!

If Br can bring in the 5/6 quality players needed on loan & sign some of them ...

Br might just get that bit of luck he needs to turn things round and top 4 is achievable

Br has stumbled on the 343 system cuzz he's desperate to save his job and some of his signings has failed miserable

So Br has been forced to play players he does not wish to ie
Jones for mig
Sakho for lovren
Glen for manquillo
Sterling for Lambert mario
Etc

If I won the lottery....

Since you first posted on here you have suggested we sign in excess of 1500 different players.
Never mind a bigger stand, we are going to need a much bigger dressing room.

Can u name 10% of the 1500 players I have wanted Lfc to sign !!!

yeah and he has wanted about 150 different managers as well

Name 10% of the managers I wanted ?!

even thought i dont agree with GNP that BR should be sacked...

enough of these personal attacks, end of the day donno and shaggy we need new players in this team, so contribute to the thread or dont bother.

If FSG invest the money in january and gives the squad a boost it will give us a platform to put a run on to push for the top4.

It's not if fsg give Br money to spend next month

It's why shud they give Br money to spend ???

He's already wasted close to 200m!!!

If Lfc can bring in 4/5 quality players next month ie
Sign some or on loan deals ..,

Then Lfc will have a better chance of a top 4 finish
If quality players r not brought in... 7,8 finish

I hope they don't give him any more money until they either fire him, replace the transfer Comittee and or change their transfer strategy. Brendan Rogers transfer record is shocking and that said he never bloody plays the players he signs except the mediocre ones like Allen and his preference to play wingers as wing backs are daft.
