      2018/2019 Season
      18 league Titles won, No 19 imminent,
      The numbers 18/19 obviously significant,  been saying this for months,  this is our year, Its our Title, let that sink in for a moment,  IT'S OUR TITLE  !!
      After almost 30 f***in years, we Really can start to believe We Will be Champions,

      To F**k this up now would surely be the biggest F**k up in the History of British Football...and it would be, but it ain't gonna happen,  cos we got the best manager in the world in Jürgen Klopp,  he will keep us all calm and grounded,

      Tonight is just another game,  it makes mo difference had City won , we would still need to win it, one game at a time and ignore what happens elsewhere good or bad, of course the players are aware of results and won't take anything for granted, they will still have to work hard, still have to put a shift in, will still need to score goals

      There's a added incentive to extend our lead and perhaps ease a wee bit of pressure but we still have to be at our best and not get complacent,  each remaining fixture is a step closer to the holy graille,

      Its finally happening ppl, and i can't f***in wait.

      I should be enjoying this but never have I wanted a season to just get to the end like this one .
      I'm exactly the same; should be enjoying the ride but I'm on tenterhooks all the time, waiting for an infamous slip or melt-down!  Fast forward to May as I've got a massive hangover planned if we finally do it!!

      Win tonight and we are 7 points clear.
      If the boot were on the other foot the media would be screaming that the title race was done and Citeh were the greatest team in history.
      Be interesting their reaction to us.

      Thirteen wins from here on in and we're champions.

      So let's just start climbing those 39 steps tonight.

      Media hype. That's only because most put their money on City sweeping the league again and they want to be proven right.

      Media bollocks. If we scrape a win, the media will come out saying signs are there we'll drop points and City to send a title warning in the next five games and it'll go down to the last day. And best of all, we'll lose it on the final day. It's City's title to lose. The media can go F**k themselves.

      Win tonight.. and the title is ours.

      Not just the points gap, but the mentality. To extend the lead and take advantage of a Man City loss would be a huge boost for our players, and a huge slap down to the City lads.

      Not even looking in match thread.

      We're blatantly 5 points clear at the top of the league at the end of January.

      Would you have took that if you were offered it towards the end of November?

      UP THE 5 POINTS CLEAR AT THE TOP OF THE LEAGUE REDS!

      Is right.

      It’s a season of football not a f***in’ procession.

      One point closer.

      2 points dropped - reminds me of Rafa 08/09 when I think we drew games at home

      The horrible thing is the media saying we have bottled it already

      Out of interest, when was the last time we had that kind of gap?

      Actually the horrible thing is any supporter of LFC that would actually give a F**k what the media says.

      Didn’t get to watch the match, but we are still unbeaten at home and lead the league by 5 points so I’m pretty chill right now. City would have to win two more games than us at this point. It could happen, but it’s not likely. Just need to get some guys healthy. Onwards and upwards redmen.

      I can take the point as Leicester are a good team but it's the recent subpar performances which concern me a lot more, we really need to find our groove again, defensively and in offense.
