Dippers, of late, have been either lucky within play or been given random decisions that not many others would have. There's nothing you can do about that and we:be just got to do our own thing as surely their luck/decisions will run out.
Can't wait for tomorrow now, Come on the Blues!!!
Agree on that, however, what I still can't get over is that we keep on saying/hope that their luck gonna run out. Many of us saw as much as football in our lives that we can take on any specialist out there hands on without any trouble, but with all of that, I, for instance can say that in all my life I never saw a team THIS LUCKY.
Is like all the mediocrity they had in the past 2 decades and bad luck, they had a few to be honest, is broken in this year. Everything, and I mean everything goes in their favour.
Imagine how difficult is for our players to see this shit? They see week in and week out the same shit, then, the next day, they need to go and play, genuine play, not wait for some luck.
You need nerves of steel.
PS: just saw the goal speroni allowed. Incredible would be an understatement.
There's a certain point where teams don't make those type of mistakes and the officials cannot give them everything (whether directed or just homers) as it just looks as if the game is fixed. Luck is what we call it but at some point it has to change, just as it did when we were battling the Rags and, latterly, Dippers.
That's when the pressure kicks in, when everything isn't going your way. Dippers have scraped through the last 2 games after losing 2 to us and Wolves, they have been anything but convincing. Let's see how they fare when the pressure really starts to hit, when their fans start to twitch and their manager realises winning the league isn't quite as easy as what the media are spouting.
Still early days yet and whoever comes out at the end on top, they'll know it's been a very difficult season.

Today's game confirmed for me that scousepool will not win the league .
Not one of their four goals were created by themselves .

You just described 90 % of their season so far.

Lpool are clearly getting the breaks but that does tend to happen when good teams play well. LPool are a very good team.We just need to keep winning and make them believe we won't drop any points and who knows.

I still think we're going to win it.
Liverpool have not shown me anything to convince me that they won't draw or lose at least two games out of the 15 they have left. Of course we probably have to win every one of ours but that's well within our capability.

I think they used up a hell of a lot of luck in that one game yesterday. Goals were just awful and they were so lucky that everything fell for them, it was laughable. How did Salah get away with not being carded, the ref was right there, saw him do it, quite rightly said no pen. He had a word with Salah but didn't book him, shocking officialism, is that a word?

Strangely enough, watching the game yesterday , the sky cameras that watch everything , didn't show the handball , keeping the ball in , to allow the pass to Mane to be made for their fourth goal.
So all four goals were 'handed' to them .
No wonder the Palace goalie doesn't get a game , very dubious from him.
VvD's off target shot deflects in a loop for Salad to flick it passed the goalie. Not one goal "earned" through playing good footy.
Now they won't have Milner after the Red, but they have two weeks rest .

Interesting narrative ifor Spurs there, telling us how hard it must've been being in 3 trophies and how they haven't really had time to prepare for games.
Never heard that when we've played this season.

Yeah, but we have a squad of 120,000 senior internationals.

I'm hoping for a Spurs win but they look toothless so far without Kane. Are they really a one man team?
