PL Title Race 23/24

United 11 points behind Villa with only 11 games left. Pretty much confirms they will not be playing in UCL next year.

Tbf, with so many English sides still in Europe and looking like they’ll get far, it’s all but certain that 5th will secure CL football.
It’d be down to them and Spurs for that.

It’s spurs who will be 5th, if they don’t claw villa back for 4th.

United and spurs are chalk and cheese, the latter are actually a decent side this year.

I think City will beat Liverpool next week and the decider will be our game against them. That is if we do our job up to that point.

The top three will be very close, with Liverpool maybe edging it, but fourth will probably be spurs, with Aston Villa just behind them so there’s no way Man U will get in the CL.

Had a look at the fixture list. Man Utd do have the most favourable(by some margin I would say) run-in compared to Villa and Spurs.

Toughest games remaining are Chelsea away, Liverpool at home, Arsenal at home and Brighton away.

Tottenham have Villa away, West Ham away, Newcastle away, City at home, Arsenal at home, Liverpool away.

Villa have Spurs at home, West Ham away, Arsenal away, City away, Chelsea at home, Brighton away and Liverpool at home.

The schedules for the other two is nasty. They all have to play unfortunately and they’ll be burning for points. :joy:

This Liverpool squad isn’t that much of a lesser squad than their 17-22 squad(s).

That’s fair. Though Henderson, Mane and Firminho (at times) were quite instrumental for them in recent years.

Imagine if we slip against Sheffield United or Brentford. :joy:

Sadio Mane is probably the biggest/only difference maker they miss. As far as midfielders go under Klopp: as long as they work tirelessly and don’t put risk in their game anyone can do the job.

Then I’ll be a loss less invested in the Pool vs City match, we simply can’t afford any dropped points vs Sheffield or Brentford given our final 10 matches.

We play twice before City and Liverpool on Sunday. We could (and should) be top of the league when they kick off.

Regarding Sheffield United tonight, I can’t remember an away game where the home team was 18/1 to win. That’s quite astonishing.

This game should only go one way. We’ll know quite quickly if the intensity is there in the first 5 mins. If it is, this will be another GD boosting win.

Klopp saying he’s leaving was a big help, the refs are helping them give klopp the best sendoff lol.

That is long odds for a home team in the PL but also Man U were 9/1 to beat Man City, which must be a record for them in any game and shows how poor they are.

A whole bunch of places g, one bookmaker even offering 19/1
