ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[maccavennie]

I wouldn't say that was a good result for them anyway, it keeps it both the Manchester clubs hands.

A United win would have been best IMO but a draw was definitely the next best result.

yep, as long as City didn't win the seeds of doubt will still be in the back of their mind.

Does anyone at the BBC actually look at what that idiot Lawrenson predicts? A side that hasn't won the league in 25 years is about to enjoy an unbeaten season by his professional opinion. Their city neighbours will draw over half the games that they play in this division despite winning the last nine at home on the spin, beating last years Champions and having the Premierships top scorer leading the line.

Now, I assume Lawro is paid for his insight by the licence holders and as such he should also be asked to explain his decisions. To be honest, I'm actually not advocating that - he's making such a prick of himself as it is, this bias should be picked up elsewhere.

Complete and utter weapon.

Just to pass a quick moment I thought I'd check the latest insight from Lawrenson for this week's games. Yep, you got it, the unusual one has predicted another Liverpool win away from home and Everton to get beat. Fast forward next week and repeat.

100k plus a week for Lovren. Do that lot never learn? Dear me.

It is just a pity United have to go to Spurs.

Can't see them winning there.

 

[The Cowboy]

They're still very much in danger of being pushed down to 6th depending on how both Mancs and the arse do in their games in hand.

That would be amusing

It's going to need a rather specific set of results, given Utd play Arsenal and Spurs soon. On paper, City have a very straightforward run in, and I can definitely see them finishing 3rd. Question is whether Arsenal and/or Utd can string the results together to oust them.

If 6th is gone by the last day, play the kids.

See Slippy has told the youth players to follow in his foot steps, haha.

Frightening for them that Klopp and/or the Sporting Directorateship Commerial Team rate him that highly.

What happened to Kloppo's famous eye for a player?

I can't either but I thought they'd get nothing last night or Chelsea at home but they just keep grinding away and getting points.

I still think Arsenal can take the RS, I've gone form wanting Arsenal to lose to wanting them to win now.

There's definitely another loss in the other crowd as well. Watford, Southampton who've already schooled them twice this year or West Ham with Carroll and others back from injury can all potentially do them.

 

[Steve0]

Liverpool could easily go the rest of the season without winning. Without Mane and an off form Coutinho theyre nothing special.

United's tricky run in/ injury list and Europa League fixtures could help them though.

It is just a pity United have to go to Spurs.

Can't see them winning there.

Mourinho will bum them 0-0.

 

[Khalekan]

Mourinho will bum them 0-0.

Yes Mike, he probably will.....but they will likely need to win all their games as the RS will probably win all theirs.

 

[MikeH72]

Yes Mike, he probably will.....but they will likely need to win all their games as the RS will probably win all theirs.

But who knows with the RS, they flap it at the most random unexpected times. I'd be more concerned if they had "big" games left, because they'll always win them.

 

[toffeejack]

Yes Mike, he probably will.....but they will likely need to win all their games as the RS will probably win all theirs.

i don't think there's any probably about that tbh, it's almost a given they won't win them all.

 

[macdog]

Follow in his skid marks more likely.

 

[jaybx1878]

They should be below City and United by the time they play Watford on Monday, huge pressure on that game then.
