      This is literally something you dream of.

      Me: Had a dream last night that we were top of the league, 16 points clear of City with a game in hand and that we'd won 22 out of 23 games drawing only one.

      Someone Else: How cool would that be!

      Just realised that we play 3 league matches before City play again; Wolves (a), West Ham (a) & Southampton (h).  Southampton is on Sat. 1st Feb & City play Spurs (a) on Sun. 2nd Feb.

      3 wins puts us 22 points ahead of them...

      1 down. 2 to go. :)

      City away, Everton away, Arsenal away. Navigate those and we're invincibles I think.

      may have the league won by then. which means klopp will rotate in league games to focus on champions league. so we will probably drop points, hopefully just draws though.

      In the league, that's 10 points we've rescued from goals scored after the 84th minute & we're still only in January. Relentless

      You'd be ruined if you were City wouldn't you?

      Of course we're more or less home & dry now but earlier on in the season when the gap was smaller & we were getting those late goals, must have killed them to watch it happen time & time again

      Same haha, I was absolutely knackered watching some of those City games last season. Felt like I'd just went 12 rounds with Tyson at the end of that Leicester game

      Looking at city's games over February and start of march, much much tougher than ours. They will drop more points for sure, at least 2 draws, probably around the champions League games with real Madrid, and even after the semi final with wee oles hero's. :)

      If you total Man Utd's and Everton's points, we have three more points than them :laugh:

      An 11 vs. 22 match between us and them both might be a pretty good game.

      Just looking at our remaining fixtures compared to City and it makes the gap all the more impressive. They still have to face all other 5 of the top 6, with all of those fixtures away from home apart from against us. We only have to face top 6 opposition twice, Chelsea at home and City away. After that our toughest games are Southampton and Arsenal, both of which City need to play also.
