      Impossible no, but very improbable.

      We most probably need to W13 D1 L1. We need Chelsea to drop points against Arsenal tomorrow,  lose to the two Manchester clubs, drop points at West Ham and Everton. We can't afford to lose at Man City otherwise they may also come into it. So yes we've won it, simple

      Mathematically possible but realistically impossible.

      We haven't won a league game this year.

      Don't think we will get to 80 points and I think Chelsea will push very close or just past 90.

      Thing is, though, in January you'd be forgiven for thinking it seemed like we played every two days. There has been a cluster f**k of games for us there. Same for all our rivals I know but who would you say has the most thread bare squad out of us all.

      Sure we only play three times in February or something like that.

      Also, we've been sh*te yet Chelsea looked very beatable the other day. Other teams will look at how we played and hopefully do some of the things that we done.

      Big ask but if we put another run together like we did earlier in the season and Chelsea drop points then it's not totally impossible.

      At all.

      There's a lot of footy to be played yet and I've made the mistake in many a season gone by of thinking that it's totally forseeable what will happen from this point of a season and been way off the mark.

      There'll be some madness yet, just hope we are part of it.

      Let's not forget that the run Chelsea have been on won't last. At least I don't think it will.

      We are only 1 point behind spurs and Gooners. So it would be absurd to think that we are out of the race.

      If there IS a title race, then we are indeed in it. PERIOD.

      It's not im possible, will say that much.
      Like someone said, let's beat Hull first.  Ask me after that.

      We MUST win the next match (Hull City), can't wait for this to start.

      Hopefully Chelsea drop point and narrow the gap.


      It ain't over yet lots of points to play for and I can't see any fat bint warbling yet 👍

      Just do our part and hope for the best, that is all we can do.

      Chelsea would need to suffer a major loss of form.

      An impressive end to our season would be us winning say 12 games. Even if we managed that then we're hoping Chelsea lose 6 or draw 9 of their last 15 games.

      Not happening IMO.

      I still have faint hope. Makes me sick thinking we were 7 points up on them and now 10 points behind them. cu*ts!!!!

      I think the turning point of our season is when that Swansea fella kicked Couts in the foot. fu**ed us up ever since. F***ing Swansea f**ker.

      We need to work, work, work, and finally work on this.

      You'll never know what is behind the storm.  :aaliverpool2xt1:

      We still score goal at the very last kick of the match.

      Never give up until the door is closed, I still believe until now. Walk on, walk on.

      I would love nothing more then those cu*ts to " slip up" on the last day of the Season and we win the Title.

      Maybe we could sing a song about those cu*ts. Now that would be the Ultimate in Karma!!!!!

      Arsenal vs Chelsea is going to be quite a decider for now. If Chelsea win this, then I think the race will be over. On the other hand if Chelsea lose this, think then we might just have another chance.

      Hope for the best, we just might win it in the end.

      Seeing as we have no other distractions to worry about we should have a good chance of winning that elusive league.All players should be under no illusion that if they don't perform for the rest of the season they will be out the door pronto.

      Had we have even been in a run of half decent form prior to the Chelsea match (if not better - pre Christmas type), I'm positive we'd have turned Chelsea over and taken all three points.

      I'm not even going to hang my hat on Arsenal beating them, especially if I can't do that with my own team. Plus the Gooners got beat at home by Watford, and I cannot really see them beating the Chavs away.

      As a club (not team), we're our own worst enemies who seem intent in shooting ourselves in the foot. We had a really good chance this year, what with the new arrivals of managers at the other bigger clubs ironing out their teething issues - Conte apart, plus no added bonus of European football. On top of that we started the season so well it was the perfect start to take into the second half of the season - then in true mediocre Liverpool fashion we decide we cannot reinforce our piss weak squad, and instead march on with the walking wounded dead.

      As a Liverpool fan, you start to wonder (well I do anyway), how often these openings/chances are going to come around for us (Rodgers' nearly season, Klopp's start this season), when we clearly have to punch way above our weight all the f**king time. I'm a firm believer in grabbing the bull by the horns, but yet again it slips our grasp and it's all our own doing! Next season it could be harder, and TBH, I'm fed up of waiting for next season, every season.

      Bitter much. You f**king betcha!

      As for Hull, well we need to get 3pts to at least try and "consolidate" a top 4 finish.

      I totally with you on this. Let's hope this early afternoon Arsenal take two points from them and then we must do our own job at 3pm.

      A win today is a must for whatever we will achieve this season.

      Our worst enemy? - Yes we are. Happened thrice now in a span of 9 years. I was hoping this year might just be ours, but then we flattered ourselves far too quickly only to be deceived yet again(albeit dis-disappointingly) in the end. Well, looking at it in a positive manner, we've made quite a progress this year, just hope its not another false dawn at the end. Some proper CL quality reinforcements in the summer, and we'll might give it a fair shot again.

      Although I am clutching at straws here, but I still think we can get it this year, albeit we will have to depend on others this time. As someone just said that city won the title in '12 whilst being in a similar scenario as of us with scum dropping points at the end.

      Just hope for the best here.

      Dont want to sound a pessimist but its a no from me . Not only do I not think Chelsea will drop enough points but City or Spurs could also go a run that is too much for us. I wanted top 4 at start of season and I still think that would be great progress from last year .

      Whats a good result for us today with Chelsea and Arsenal? Arsenal win, Chelsea win or draw?

      Chelsea win can help us with top 4, an Arsenal win brings the leaders closer or a draw we hedge our bets for another week.

      We are currently 20/1 to win the league.... if you truly 'believe' you should lump on with big money... no ifs buts or bullshit playing to the crowd... lump on.

      It's still "mathematically possible" - true but sadly, it's even more mathematically possible for others (including Chelsea).

      It's also true that if we finish second, third or fourth we have come some way. And the truth is: I'm sure if it weren't for the fact that Leicester last season (and Chelsea this season), have proven it a lie - I'd be reading the excuse of how it's impossible to improve, from a lowly position to become champions.

      You can blame who you want but the truth is - we aren't good enough yet.

      Think that top four as always been the objective this season... Title was always a dream that looked possible at one stage to a lot of people out there... Reality is now setting in
