Alcibiades Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Picking up on the thread regarding goal difference.... it seems to me that City having the extra game to score goals makes it very difficult. Realistically, I think City need to drop points for Liverpool to close the goal difference. But if City drop points, Liverpool won't need to win on goal difference, of course. Maybe if Liverpool beat palace by 4 or 5 they'll give themselves a chance, but it would still be difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Moff Mithrandir Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Yeah I don't think we'll stand a chance if it comes down to goal difference. We've played a game more yet we're on a GD of 50 to City's 58. So nah I'm not too confident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 As someone said in the other topic, it's probably done on the goal difference front, but Newcastle are so pathetically bad that it honestly wouldn't shock me if you did catch up. Southampton could have scored double figures if Jay Rodriguez had his shooting boots on the other day, and Arsenal scored three without even bothering to try. If SaSaSaS get back in the mood in time, it could be a bloodletting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baxus Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Theoretically, Liverpool can still catch up on goal difference, but it would require Man City winning all three of their remaining matches by one goal margin and Liverpool stomping Crystal Palace and Newcastle by 6 goals on average.After last night's match, I can see Liverpool scoring 6+ goals on Newcastle, but it's almost impossible they'll do that to Crystal Palace.And City winning next three games 1-0 (or 2-1 etc.) is even more unlikely. Liverpool needs City to drop points to win the league. EDIT:@Alex:Don't worry, even if you get some punishment, it will be revoked before it has any effect.If you don't believe me, see under "Barcelona" ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex. Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Ha! City aren't wildly corrupt from top to bottom like Barca allegedly are though.We will pay the price for our honesty and move on, like grown ups.ETA: a thing on the danger of hubris for City and how Liverpool are going to get patronised to death if they finish second http://sabotagetimes.com/football/liverpool-loss-was-hilarious-but-man-city-must-be-wary-of-hubris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Was rather funny to see Newcastle fans turn on Pardew in the second half and bring out the A4 sized signs. Hopefully we win against WBA and can rest a couple of players against Norwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercenaryChef Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Newcastle will not win again this season.Pardew will remain in charge. Remy will not get signed. Things will suck next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baxus Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I hope Chelsea get fucked up by all their opponents til the end of the season ;)And I don't want to be greedy, I'd be happy with City getting fucked up by any one of their opponents in the remaining part of the season :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gronzag Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 It would be awesome if Liverpool are about to win the title in the very last game and then Gerrard fucks up again! Chavski are my favorites for the title it but really it's anyone but Liverpool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slick Mongoose Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Tottenham fans - how do you feel about Frank de Boer as manager?http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27205254 I'm worried by reports of slow tempo possession football with a high defensive line. That's what got AVB in trouble in the PL. And he obviously can't keep his mouth shut (so what's new for a Spurs manager?). And he'll be off to Barca if he's successful. On the other hand, 4 titles in a row is impressive, even in the Dutch league, and he has experience of bringing through youth players. So i'll keep an open mind.

ljkeane Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 The Bayern team is a bit more promising tonight with Muller and Kroos both starting, hopefully they'll offer a bit more in the final third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
