Liverpool 2013-14

It is such a joy to watch Liverpool play like that. There have been hints at that free flowing attacking football in this team for years, but it was never consistent and always seemed to fizzle out. But this season... seeing a young player like Raheem Sterling score that goal ice cold, it is enough to start to believe that this is the start of something great.

Not even just for Liverpool. The EPL has been really dull for years now, but this season, that match, it has all been shaken up and given a bit load of passion and excitement that has been missing from football for ages. IMO.

I agree - mainly because we're in with a really good shout for the first time in decades - but the season where City nicked the title off United with pretty much the last kick of the season was pretty special.
 
Well done liverpool. A great game, although City had plenty of missed chances in the second half and it could have been theirs.
 
Especially (for a draw) if that blatant penalty towards the end had been awarded ;)

Fair play to Liverpool though, their third goal was a cracker and so was the opener. Great entertaining watch for a near-neutral :) :cool:
 
We were immense. After letting them back in the game we didn't lose our nerve and kept playing our attacking stuff. Brilliant. Four more games to go. Each one a cup final. Come on you Reds!!!

:D
93 goals! Has a premiership team scored 100 in a season yet ?
 
Andrea Pirlo writes (via twitter):

:D:D
 
That is brilliant :thumbs:

A truly incisive slicing through any new-age/spiritual rationalisation... as incisive as a Pirlo pass through a massed defence in fact.
 
Any predictions away to Norwich on Sunday?
Liverpool beat them 5-1 at home back in December and one would hope that this should be three points with a decent scoreline.
I am going for 0-3 to the pool.

Norwich - 7/1
Liverpool - 4/11
Draw - 4/1

What's the odds on Suarez getting another hat-trick against Norwich?
 
Norwich are desparate to stay up. They are going to give it all they've got. Having said that, I don't think they've got that much to give. And their run in looks quite tough. Us, then Man U, then Chelsea and then Arsenal. Still, it's a cup final and there's a big possibility the title could be decided on goal difference. 0-1 would be enough, but 0-4 would be much better.

They gave it all they had (admittedly away) against relegation rival Fulham last week and lost 1-0 so I doubt they can dig much deeper? Liverpool at -5 goal difference on City so want to pile in the goals. Although to be honest I can't see Liverpool catching the City goal difference, they need to win it on points.

Yeah, I can't really see there goals stopping flowing and they have 2 more games to get them too.

I do see their fixture list being the one thing that they have really going against them. They play 2 sets of 3 games in 9 days and they have the odd injury to key players so they aren't as strong.
 
I saw that and went WTF??

Only 3 days after a proper top of the table clash, its got to take its toll. Their last three are also 3,7 and 11th May.
 
I fell asleep at 1-2 :facepalm: but crikey o'trousers that is a turn up!!

Wonder how Chelsea will deal with the resurgent Black Cats away form on Saturday?
 
Chelsea home to Sunderland on Saturday and away to Madrid on Tuesday. Then away to Liverpool Sunday, three days before they play Madrid at home.

Liverpool play Norwich away on Sunday, then a nice weeks rest before Sunday home to Chelsea. Followed by a nice 8 days rest before away to Palace :)
