Were sitting 3rd in the table 6 points behind Chelsea. We still have them Arsenal and Man united to come but all at anfield. They havent looked good recently and have drawn with the likes of fulham and reading and just luckily beaten Wigan. They Face Aston villa Tommorow and they are a good side. They will be without captain Gareth Barry but i think chelsea could be on the low and Villa could possibly sneak a point or maybe all 3.  I think there still could be a chance of us gettin 2nd

Liverpool v Chelsea

[peterc1992]

i might be being optimistic but we will,everyone is saying will they catch united but we are slowly creeping up the baacks and over the next month,i wouldn ebe suprised if u c us there or there abouts

When we lose we won't finish in the top four, when we win we're the best thing since slice of bread.

Chelsea have dropped points but a seven point gap [which could be more tomorrow] is not easy to cut down. We would have to keep winning and we have to play Arsenal,Chelsea and Manure at Anfield still.

tbh i'd be more then happy to keep the 3rd position we have now. bit optomistic to think we could pinch 2nd but it would be some acheivment considering our poor away form early season.

If we go on a hot streak, not dropping points for a couple of months, I fancy the gap to be severely cut down. Man U and Chelsea have dropped points recently, and I think there are more dropped points ahead for them.

The ball's in our court really. No more Blackburn-style results and it could be interesting.

Theres a possiblilty of 1st.

Yeah, next year maybe. Like Manure are going to drop 14 points

Come on what? We would have to win every single game and they would have to lose quite a lot of games for us to win the league.

It's not going to happen. Why can't people just take their red blinkers off and accept that? We don't deserve to win the league, not with our away record.

Why the not lad? they hve to go to arsenal, us, chelsea, spurs, everton, and also an away manchester derby. Thats 18 POINTS well and truly up for grabs.

Thye up at newcastle and west ham, what to say they cant in some of those 6 aways, and some no mark teams steal a draw here or there.

Ofcourse we will have to go unbeaten now. We're barely half way through the season FFS! Its that old cliche, but remember Istanbul.

The Reds are coming up the hill boys..

[peterc1992]

well mate im not giving up

as u say we dont deserve to win it but if those teams did drop them points then there would be no reason why we didnt deserve it,thed have a terrible record too

[peterc1992]

we will get second

[metalhead]

Ofcourse there is a possibilty, its not impossible! Mathematically we are still in the title race and taking second spot, MATHEMATICALLY! so it is POSSIBLE.

Well taking Mathematics aside, I don't know if we can get second, I think we will be close, but Chelsea wouldn't want to drop anymore points and for us to go on a winning streak and an unbeaten run is a bit hard don't you think? it is possible I think we can do it, but its tough.

[peterc1992]

Ands its not just because we won today tht im saying this,iv always said it and if we lose next week i will still say it

[Dundalk]

they hve to go to arsenal, us, chelsea, spurs, everton, and also an away manchester derby.

Are you saying they are going to lose everyone of those games, cmon will ya!!!

Get into the real world for gods sake, we have no chance of winning the league this year. Third possibly second is our best bet.
