Weeeee down the table we would go! I've written tip 4 off unless we get our act together but least finish top 8..

If City lose to Leeds Arsenal be 8 clear..

Indeed it would.

But Bournemouth is a bottom half team. We've shown that we can at least beat those, this season.

Know only game 1 without Jesus but hardly effected! I still can't see them falling drastically away. City aren't exactly consistent...

4 points dropped out of 15 is good going! Seems silly they get written off as title contenders because as it stands..looks promising

 

The worst thing is Gabriel's oft maligned replacement, Nketiah, actually scored today, to add to that win.

They have been quite fortunate with injuries this season. Will be interesting to see how they cope now.

Game one..and scored 3...

• Darwin Nunez was given the man of the match award against Aston Villa
• The Liverpool striker missed a number of chances during Liverpool's win
• Some fans feel it was 'ridiculous' that he got the man of the match award

'I am not sure I would want them to be honest': Jurgen Klopp rules out trying to sign a player seeking Champions League football next season if Liverpool fail to qualify - with Jude Bellingham among his transfer targets

• Liverpool currently sit sixth in the league, seven points outside the top four
• Champions League football can play a big factor in attracting top players

I know they have some injured players but when everyone is fit there will be unhappy players. Firmino, Salah, Jota, Diaz, Nunez, Gakpo even Carvalho.

It will be another fantastic year for Pep if Arsenal keep it up and if, as usual, he is knocked out of the CL.

Arsenal and City look like a lock for top 4. Newcastle could also be getting there. Leaves only one spot to compete with Liverpool, United, Spurs

Out here we can't get our first choice forwards to string together 3 good games

Which is worrying. Can't afford anymore slip ups seeing as we're behind them all. Only one behind Liverpool if we win today at least but the other 2 potentially bigger
