This thread really hasn't been getting much love lately, has it? To be fair I haven't checked in on it in ages either :lol: 

I wonder how old Len's taking Arsenal's title tilt this year! Could do with his colourful commentary throughout the season.

Be interesting to see how the title race plays out now, Arsenal managed to decimate their lead literally in a week. City has had some less desirable results also this season. Wouldn’t completely rule out Newcastle or United either. Still anybody’s game, which is mental to say when Arsenal had an 8 point lead 10 days ago.

Can't be having Newcastle win it. Fat Geordies would never let us hear the end of it.

It’s primed for a tight finish every way really title, top 4 and the relegation battle. 

Arsenal are in that period all Title winning teams go through, a bad result or two a draw, but if they’re real winners they’ll pull through that period, regain the form they had a few weeks ago and get it across the line. 
 

City are starting to fire on all cylinders again, they’re within distance and could peak at the right time of the season. Pep will use the PL charges and media to his advantage. Siege mentality. 
 

As a Liverpool supporter, I have no expectations for the season at this stage myself. I think if we beat Newcastle this weekend it wouldn’t surprise me if we got a result against Madrid next week. It also wouldn’t surprise me if we’re embarrassed against Newcastle. The team looked a lot better in the Everton game than they had for a long time. Energy levels seemed to be up again. But that was Everton. They’re shite. So this weekend will tell a lot for Liverpool, and for Newcastle’s season also.

Newcastle finishing in the top four for the first time in twenty years would be an amazing achievement.

Liverpool tonight, they're the only team to beat us in the league this season so far.

We haven't beat them at home since 2015. I hope we do but I'm getting 96/97 vibes.

I really hope Newcastle do get either top 4 or the Cup win. I was glad they made the decision to stick with Eddie Howe…

We are overachieving this season. We are ahead of schedule.

I would have been happy with finishing tenth and winning the league cup.

Do the league cup winners qualify for the Europa League, the Europa Conference League or neither?

It’s more ahead of schedule than it is overachieving. Newcastle played some solid football this year. Pope, Trippier, Schar, Almiron, Longstaff, Bruno, have all been excellent this season. They’ve earned their current position. 

Im confused at this stage, but I think it’s the Conference League, it used to be the Europa League and I think it was changed. Double check that..
