Yeh it's absolutely ridiculous. I don't know how anyone could want anything other than any manager we have doing well here, it's such odd behaviour waiting for them to mess up to then decide to stick the knife in as you said. Some have even started doing it when we've had a positive weekend.
He’s a rival fan who’s been found out. He’ll be on here Final week telling us all how City will decimate us expecting us not to notice. That’s why he has his profile hidden now, harder to have posts at hand.
They’ll likely finish with W8 D1 out of their last nine games. Not exactly a wild shout mate. Even though I felt they’d drop at least one game somewhere it wasn’t far fetched to win them all.
One of the worst posters on here who went missing in this thread when we lost to Brighton and West Ham. Instead hiding in the 'ITUFSTGIY' thread making posts like this:
Basically agreeing I was right all along to point out wasn't a done deal.
Who are you? Another who 'ignores' me.
4 posts in 2 years, 3 of them to me. Weird.
Multiple people yesterday said they'd wipe away Villa who were easily the best team they played out of those 9 games, though. It was pure hysteria, and ultimately, even if they had won yesterday, we were so far ahead in the top four race that the odds of them catching us even if they did win 9 on the bounce was so low. People are mental.
Good results yesterday. Nearly there now as the odds have long expected.
Took a couple of weeks of from this place with other more important stuff going on. Seems I've been missed, strangely mainly by posters who "have me on ignore"
Fun fact. I've never once said we won't get top 4 in this thread.
Ya not everyone hides their profile like you. N i post when it's needed , not for just doom gloom mongering like you
You know your exaggerating on the 7th/8th bit.
It was extremely far fetched to be honest, it was a miracle they got to where they did in the first place.
Why am I seen as against him? Why are some of you so sensitive to any form of criticism for him. All because I said we were struggling in attack a few months back and got abuse for it, now everyone has caught up and can see goalscoring is a problem for this team.
You are massively overstating how unlikely it was that Liverpool catch us. If Bournemouth had converted that huge chance in the second half and Liverpool found another goal in the 10 minutes added time, we'd be looking at having to win both of our last two games. Fine margins and all that. Our games are so hard-fought and close, without exception, that we're always an unlucky bounce away from dropping points.
Liverpool could easily have dropped points V Forest.
I'm not massively overstating anything, as evidenced by the fact that the entire time, the bookies have had us as overwhelming favourites for top four. Ifs and buts are irrelevant here. Pool had loads of lucky moments where they could've dropped points. We had unlucky moments where we did drop points, we had lucky moments where we didn't. That's football. Things even themselves out and we were always far, far, far more likely to get top four than Liverpool. It would've taken a monumental collapse.
Yeah, they'll never admit it but it's ended up far closer than many thought. Hence this thread is still going with 2 games left.
It wasn't dodgy. It was 100% the correct decision.
Every time I burn my toast I smash my house up Eastenders style. It costs a fortune. I won’t even get into what I did when we only bought Donny and a few panic buys at the end of the 2021 transfer window
How is it close?
One more goal yesterday and they would have done
And if Aston Villa didn't miss their penalty they'd have lost. What's your point?
My point is that you are making out it would be preposterous that such an inconsistent team would not win all their remaining games when they were ultimately one goal away from winning their final 9 games.
Can only assume posters won some decent money yesterday given they were 100% sure Liverpool wouldn't win.
Go for it
Potentially being 7 points clear isn't close.
Mathematically we haven’t. If we lose to Chelsea it will officially go to the final day and if we don’t technically the earliest it can be wrapped up is with a game to spare. Which is definitely not comfortable considering we were about 500 points above them in March.
