      Definitely need them all the cushion we can get. Last year i think we were 4 points up with a game in hand and they still beat us by basically 2 points since they had the GD.

      I'd love for us to win the league by being in first wire to wire. Not sure the last time someone did that.

      Fairly sure Manure were 1st all the way a few times and probably also Arsenal, but perhaps I'm wrong.

      Am sure City will have been when they hit 100 points surely?

      A good cushion is always needed! Liverpool players know what our parade will be in June!

      Yep..City lost. Read somewhere that Pep said Sterling has to step up to Messi,Ronaldo level...putting that pressure on him.

      Well clear now.Couldn't ask for a better start.

      Looks like we have really got inside his head. ;D

      Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought we'd be 5 points clear before the Champions League proper has even kicked off! I just hope the rest of the league was watching that Manchester City game & that they've finally started to smell blood - the amount of sides who spread their arsecheeks whenever they played City last year was embarrassing. Have a go at them! They're far from invincible!

      All of these "Big 6" clubs dropping points left and right in these first half-dozen matches should reinforce what a good start we've had to the season. The wins against the so-called lower clubs are still full of value in our quest to win the league. Three more points tomorrow!!!

      I agree, the win away to Burnley was far more impressive than we first thought and Chelsea were much tougher than I expected. Even Arsenal was a solid win.
      At the end of the day you can only beat what's in front of you and but for a bullshit pen decisions at Napoli we'd have a 100% record so far.

      Couldn't have asked for a better start to the season. Loving the mentality of the team, it really came through again yesterday. The amount of energy and running we put in to the first half really seemed to catch up with the lads during the last 20 but they dug deep and defended valiantly.

      A much needed rest for them all now as the squad players and youngsters come in for the MK Dons game midweek.

      I would take 4 points going in to the last game personally.

      Repeating myself here, I know, but that pitch was weird.

      Slow in places, too quick in others probably from the rain.

      They dealt with it better than we did, but we should have had more goals, and were the better team.
