what an end to the season we have on our hands. Whatever happens happens, we should be nothing but proud of this team and what they have done this season. We have gotten the most points now than we ever have in any PL season and there is still 3 games left. forget about City, we only need focus on ourselves and what we have done this season, only lost once so far this season, and that was to the team that will finish in the top 2 and will amass over 90 points. What i love about this team is the calmness we have in each game, not bothered with the title just focused on the game in front of us. We have 3 games left in the league season, currently 2 points ahead of 2nd, and in a CL semi final, I am sure i am not the only fan who would have bit off someones hand to be in this position. Whatever happens i think we should just relax and enjoy the ride, whatever happens, happens. I for one am immensely proud of this team and cannot wait for the next game. YNWA.

27 wins and 7 draws from 35 games?
Up there with the very best Liverpool seasons whatever happens in the last 3 games. 👏.

If we don't win it this season, those draws will have cost us.

No, Hamidou. The draws would NOT have. A season comes with ups and downs and if we don't win the PL this season with 97 points in the bag, we go back and try to get 100 points next season, end of. We go back and get better at what we are not good at AND get WAY better at what we are good at. That is how athletes and managers improve. As Klopp said, your argument is "one of the weak-minded and of idiots". I hope you don't ascribe to the group Klopp is talking about?

Surly we are not complaining about 1 loss and 7 draws.

Exactly Redwolf. Without the draws we’d be 14 points better off right now. That means we’d have 102 points with 3 games to go. Anyone who thinks that is realistic is an absolute fool and shouldn’t be watching football.
Even if we’d beaten Leicester and West Ham we’d be on for 101 points which would be a league record!
97 points would be an incredible haul and if City get 98 then fair play. That’s what their Abu Dhabi billions will buy you I suppose.
Regardless of that though we have had an incredible season and we should all be hugely proud of our club and the players.

Red Wold - there is pragmatism in defeat and then there is blind ignorance when presented with the facts. You can also still have for better whilst recognizing areas that let us down. the table doesn't lie, and our performances in most of those games we drew have let us down. Hopefully City have one more blip up their sleeve for us to capitalize on. Also, imo there is a decorum of respect that we should observe when we talk about other posters . . .

when the season is done we can look back at gained / dropped points here and there, they will all be true and objective measures for our points tally.

Like it or not, Hamidou’s statement is fact. How else could we have got more points than City?

Hamidou, I apologize if the last part of my post (the part stating that your argument was that of the weak-minded and idiots, a quote from Klopp) offended you. I am in no way, referring to you as an idiot or weak-minded. I was making a bigger point that there are ups and downs in a season and sometimes you can't control outcomes all the time. Cheers, man.

Faith, you accusing me of blind ignorance is hilarious. Using context to explain a fact is NOT blind ignorance. It is called nuanced thinking. You should try it before insulting others of the very thing you are suffering from. Also. there is NO difference btw what you posted and what I posted.

If we don't win the PL, we go and get better at things we did not do right and get WAY better at things we did do right. Again, a season is made of ups and downs. Blips and purple patches. The main thing is to stay the course when you are out of form. There are a tonne of things that led us to the 7 draws. Stating that we had 7 draws is stating a fact without context hence, peeing in the wind, IMO.

Lack of form, injuries, ref. decisions etc. are things that led to those 7 draws while at the same time, we got lucky in several areas and games where we got wins where a draw or loss was staring us in the face. That is how a season works and I am sure you are intelligent enuff to know that.

This simplistic argument of "had we won those 7 games, we would 14 points better". That will only be a fact if you believe we would NEVER lose form, have injuries hence drop points in other games, a trail of thought that is completely baseless and lacks context. Cheers, mate.

Faithinworks, you appear to be mounting a vigorous challenge to Walter for the ‘Wet Blanket of the Year’ award. Do you seriously believe that this wonderful team has ‘let us down’ In any game in the PL this season? Do you actually watch our games or just look at the result and form an opinion on how the team played? I agree with the bulk of posters on this site, true Liverpool supporters, who quite rightly describe this team as one of our best ever playing a PL season which is one of our best ever. Whether we win the PL title, the CL, both or nothing we should be proud of this fine young team and our fantastic manager. YNWA.

give it a rest guys. If we win or lose the league by a point we will analzye and reminisce on individual moments as "key" to our final tally. I'm fine with the pragmatism and deeper analysis but it can really be as simple as dropping a single game costing us the title. the margins are that tight and this season is proving it don't ya think?

Also I didn't call you blind or ignorant, just the premise that someone else's view is idiotic for the sake of pragmatism, to me, is blindly ignorant of the objective facts that hamidou was basing his perspective. Again, I'm with you on the ups and downs etc but there a few objective stats out there and the w-l-d and points column are the most important! The table does not lie!

We have a chance and hopefully City habe another down for us to capitalize on.

wirral, I must admit watching live at 3am probably clouds my judgement! I love the team and have been advocating for the journey FSG has been on from the beginning when most on here were calling for the to sell up and get out. You seem to be jumping to a whole bunch of conclusions that I haven't even thought about. . . Overall am stoked with this historic season, and in some of the games when we dropped points I hoped we didn't, I really think It is ok to feel let down in that moment and then look forward to the next match. That is a pretty human thing to do. Shivers, it's not like I'm calling for the FA to withdraw our participation award, crikey. . .

Faithinworks, in an earlier post you stated “our performances in most of those games we drew have let us down”. I disagree. As other posters have pointed out, there are myriad reasons why those games ended in a draw and to claim that they were mostly down to substandard performances ignores the reality of a football match and a top level football season. To extend your statement to it’s logical conclusion, there has never been a Liverpool season that has not let us down because we have never won every game and we have never won every competition we have entered. I am happy to accept the totality of this season’s wonderful performances and achievements - even if we fall short of both PL and CL this season - rather than pick over the bones of the small number of games when we didn’t win.

Brilliantly put, WW. I have a huge problem with people nit-picking in order to prove a broader point, as if those isolated incidents occurred in a vaccum. Using 7 measely draws to say we lost the title completely ignores the fact that we have won a stunning 28 PL games and recorded JUST one loss. Again, big picture.

Also for context, we have dropped 17 points this season as a whole while City has dropped how many? Yeah, 16 points. Should we win it, will people now say that it was the 4 losses that let them down? Anyone who has the audacity and naivete to say that our boys let us down in any way this season would we not win the PL this season, will be met head on with fierce rebuttals from my end.

{Ed0333's Note - I blame Theresa May and The Krankies if we don’t win it

Wirral, I'm not picking over the bones of a small number of games. Just expressing the feeling at the team. Do you think Klopp really feels happy flappy after dropping points at home to Leicester and manU? Doubt it, and we seem to be caught up in the semantics of "being let down". don't get it twisted, I think our guys are great, and we could replace that line with disappointed / guttered / missed opportunity. Whatever, you're going way deeper about it than I think I am! On the other hand, pointing put these draws isn't the death knell of a supporter? At the moment those results are a difference maker. I hope City can pick up at least a draw in their coming matches that we can take advantage of!

{Ed0333's Note - don’t worry mate my sister has gone on a pilgrimage to Mecca and I asked her to pray for a United win or a draw against City. We have divine inspiration on our side.

oh for goodness sake, this is starting to feel like left-leaning politicians fighting with each other. We're on the same team fellahs! Yet your guys pragmatism, general "level-headedness" and aversion to knee-jerkism is getting in the way of accepting another poster's perspective. Which, to bring it back to where I came in, imo is all that Hamidou was raising about our dropped points. Then he got shot down for being an idiot. Gees, let's know let our pragmatism get the better of us aye?

I'll just say one last time - The lads have been fantastic this year. Win or lose, they have done the club proud. That doesn't remove the feelings of disappointment in matches where we dropped points we shouldn't have. In that moment it felt disappointing (as klopp himself expressed many a time in those post match pressers! ), but then we move on to the next match. Very few, especially not me, was calling for Klopp or FSG's head like some do. But you know who those posters are on here!

Let's hope over the coming weeks that we go perfect and City drop at least a couple points. I think manU are a great should this week.

Ed333! yes, I think there is a great chance at Old Trafford. just hope it's for the fellahs in red lol.

I was thinking back to the season after our title charge under BR. and at times we looked so bereft of ideas and identity. We'd show up for the big matches for the first 20mins and then the quality of our opposition would come through. I am hoping, for one match, manU can pull on enough passion to pull a result!
