KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum 20 games to go to our 1st ever PL Title!

The league is not over at all. Far too many games to go. It doesn't take a huge collapse to let City back in as we know from last season. Even a few draw will reduce the gap enough for the pressure to grow and then anything could happen.

Hence I suggest we just enjoy the moment, enjoy being at the summit and enjoy each game one by one.

one step closer...

West Ham vs Liverpool rescheduled for January 29

The Premier League fixture between West Ham and Liverpool will take place on Wednesday, January 29, after it was rescheduled for the Reds' Club World Cup exploits.

The re-arranged game will now kick off at 7.45pm at the London Stadium.

Liverpool were due to travel to east London on December 21, however, the match was postponed due to the Club World Cup in Qatar.

As it stands if Liverpool win their game in hand:


Leicester would need to win every game and for Liverpool to lose 6 games out of the last 20 remaining or lose 4 and draw 2 "if Leicester get a better GD".
Gap currently: 13 points and Liverpool with a game in hand.

Man City would need to win every game and for Liverpool to lose 6 games out of the last 20 remaining or lose 5 and draw 1 "if City get a better GD".
Gap currently: 14 points and Liverpool with a game in hand.

Doesn't sound likely to happen does it? but we are half way through the season, so we cannot be complacent, I think it is now a case of maintaining a big lead, so we keep the pressure off, so matching Leicester & Man City's results is enough really.

So in effect, we need to win 15 of our remaining 20 games to win the PL, I think we would have taken that run in at the start of the season if offered.

I know we've had our hearts broken before, but we're 13 points clear with a game in hand. We've only dropped 2 points all year. It's ours, lads. No more cowardice as fans.

It's not about whether we'll win it or not anymore. It's about what kind of history we're going to make. The title is ours. The boys are playing to beat Arsenal's Invincible year, City's 100 point season, or United's Treble. How fitting would it be to see us produce the most impressive individual season in the history of English football to end our drought?

I would still take us winning it by a point if it meant resting players to win the CL again. Can you imagine that?

Not likely we will reach 3 CL finals in a row.
its all pop luck in cup competitions.

I'd beg to differ Welshie, the 3 ties left to go to the final are 2 legged and I find is better suited to us as a team. We have a nice big advantage in the premier league, The FA Cup we can give the kids more time and NO League Cup anymore this season. I'd be disappointed if we didn't go all in for The CL again because I think we can win it again along with the PL.
We'll have a lot of important players back soon and Minamino can play in the CL for us, not being cup tied after the new UEFA rules implemented.
