We fucking win the fucking league title 2016-17

Jed

Between us and Chelsea for the title.

General

Ridiculous. Too early.

Burnwinter

United are thirteen points off, they're out.

The rest is open between us, City, and Chelsea. Liverpool and Spurs aren't good enough.

If Liverpool is within 6 points off the top while Coutinho is out they still have a legit shout.

I'd be surprised if Liverpool sustain their challenge, their defence is too poor. Burns is right, in general you look at their squad and Tottenhams squad and it's lacking compared to us, Chelsea, City and even United. I don't think the managers are enough to compensate for that. I think both should be happy to get a top four spot.

Clrnc

It's better than the squad they have when they challenged for the title in 13-14. Klopp is at least twice the manager as Rodgers too.

Is it? That side had Suarez. There is no one close to that quality now. Sturridge was on another level to where he is now back then too. They may have a more rounded squad but they lack top quality.

Agree Klopp is a great manager but I think there is too much competition this season for him to manage with that squad.

Yep, Suarez and Sturridge scored 52 league goals between them and Sterling was terrific for them too. That front 3 and this years front 3 isn't remotely comparable.

Agreed. Mane is irritatingly dangerous though.

Chelsea have a piss easy schedule for the next few months this weekend aside (versus a surging West Brom).

Their form scares me and I don't see it changing much over the next month or two.

AFCON should slow his roll a bit

They play Tottenham, Liecester (yeah, I know), Liverpool and us in the first 6 games or so after the new year. Though funnily enough, I bet it's a smaller side that gets some unexpected points off them.

MistaT

Nice - I hadn't looked that far ahead, so I suppose I should have said their schedule is easy for the next month (not two).

innervisionscm

Hazard could easily cool off, and Costa could easily get injured again. That back 3 will get found out. Far from over.

Sicario

If we are going to win the the title Perez is going to have to be like Eduardo was for us in 2007/2008 (pre-injury of course).

Thing is, December is Chelsea version of our November....

Everton away followed by Man City away are our toughest back to back league fixtures for the rest of the season on paper in my opinion.

Real big games coming up for our title challenge.

lorddulaarsenal

Feels really good getting 3 points on a Saturday afternoon with all our rivals still to play

Qwiss

If we beat Everton on Tuesday it would really take the pressure off against a ragged City. If we can remain unbeaten through to new year I think we will be in a really strong position to challenge.

Tony Montana

Worried about Lukaku taking our defence to the cleaners.
