You know when I said we don't need Mourinho to tell us who the favourites are? At this rate, I don't think we need him to say anything more at the moment. That attempt at mind games was embarrassing jose. If he said Hitler was a good, misunderstood person, Chelsea fans would believe him.

Still anyone's title, city have a few tricky assignments as well. The trip to Goodison won't be a stroll in the park for them. I'm more worried about us getting past the Spuds tonight.

Then the mighty hammers next week ;-)

Beating spurs is easy as. Even west ham have won at their place twice this season and you have them at home.

I give it til the middle of tis week before Josė kicks off the "Suarez is the only diver" campaign as well. In preparation for the Anfield clash of course. Danny S to get a few mentions as well.

He's much more entertaining when he's taking pot shots at Wenger

Praying they play that high line rubbish like they did at the Lane first time round.

Can't help it mate, it's the pessimism that comes with being a Red supporter :lol:

One game at a time and all that jazz!

You have it easy as a pool supporter.

Try being a west ham and st george supporter.

Leave out 2010 and, well, there isn't much :)

If it means anything, I'm cheering for your lot to win..

Soz :lol:

Fortunately I live in Brisbane and am a roar fan so I have something to cheer about.

Come on mate, we've made the finals far more often than not! We've had a pretty good run apart from the last 2 years. Anyway, let's not digress. It will be interesting to see what Mourinho keeps on saying. Surely the managers won't be stupid enough to listen to it. In saying that, they could feel indifferent whether they listen or not. Still can't believe we now have fate in our hands. Some Liverpool fan told me around January that we'd win the title. I thought he was mad... but his reasoning is actually starting to come to reality at the moment...

There's probably no point trying to explain this to you anymore, but I will anyway. I don't know if you're just in denial, or you don't have your thinking cap on. If City win all of their remaining games (INCLUDING AGAINST LIVERPOOL), they win the title. On the flip side, if Liverpool win all their remaining games (INCLUDING AGAINST CITY), they win the title. It's in both of their hands, because this is just now like one big grand final between Liverpool and City spanning over a combined 15 games. Now let's do the maths to back up our argument that Liverpool are also in the driving seat

Liverpool: 68 points
City: 67 points

Liverpool remaining games: 7
City remaining games: 8

Liverpool's end-of-season points tally if they win every remaining game: 68+(7x3)= 89
City's end-of-season points tally if they win every remaining game, bar against Liverpool:
67+(7x3)= 88

Liverpool's end-of-season points tally if they win every game, bar against City: 68+(6x3)= 86
City's end-of-season points tally if they win every remaining game: 67+(8x3)= 91

Hopefully, you can now see that even though City have a game in hand, it's still also Liverpool controlling their own destiny, because City dropped 2 points today. If you still think it's in City's hands, then what you're actually saying is that when they play each other at Anfield, only City has a direct influence on that result, which is clearly untrue.

You seem to have forgotten that Citeh only need to draw at Anfield, whereas Liverpool need to win...

Dude, Liverpool have direct influence over that. The whole crux of our argument is that Liverpool can now win the EPL by themselves, without having to rely on other results go our way, like what happened today. It's in their hands to make sure City don't at least draw, and it's in Citeh's hands to make sure they at least draw, according to the current points tallies. We're not having to hope that City lose in another game. There' just as much pressure on City to make sure they at least draw that game. They aren't structured to draw games anyway, they only play well when they try to attack and win the game. If they play to avoid losing, they will lose. If you really think City control more of their destiny than we do, it might be by the finest of margins, but it's not a resounding, 'no, everything is up to Citeh'. Chelsea are still in this too, I don't believe anything Jose says anymore.

Spurs rubbish. LFC top of the league.

6 games left - WHU (A), City (H), Norwich (A), Chelsea (H), Palace (A), Newcastle (H).

Not a lot of sympathy for Spurs fans. After a couple of years of improvement, and one champions league qualification, they had the audacity to treat LFC fans with flak and disrespect, and actually thought spurs were bigger than liverpool! It's just funny we've beaten them a combined 9-0 after all of their LFC transfer hijackings, and the belief their new players like Vertonghen had when they thought Spurs going better places than us. Erikssen said he wanted revenge, but he played like dog shit.

Lol @ Spurs. Well done Liverpool. Really hope they go on and win it.

But I'm also sad that I have to watch for Everton results. Everton ffs.
