Liverpool handed the title?

Page 7 of 8

posted on 16/5/20

Head to head was only brought in when points, goal difference and goals scored are all equal. Before it went to a play off now it goes to head to head before a play off. Seeing as a play off has never had to be used to decide placing it’s not really that radical.

Pathetic that they'd rule out the idea that Liverpool would lose all remaining 9 games and City winning all their remaining 10.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
City have won the last 10 games of the season several times recently
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Liverpool have never lost their last 9 games of a season several times recently though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They'd have to lose 7.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Liverpool only need 6 points to guarantee the title (realistically they only need 5 if City can't beat them by 2 goals or more at the etihad). There are 9 games left. If Liverpool lost 7 they would still win the title.

Good counting Sandy.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Considering I never posted anything about wins, I think you need a visit to specsavers.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I can recap the conversation if you can't comprehend the meaning of your own comment.

Someone pointed out that Liverpool have not lost all 9 of their last games in a season recently, to suggest it would be highly unlikely it would happen.

You responded thay they would have to lose 7 rather than 9.

They don't have to lose 7. They could lose 7 and still win the league even if City won all their games.

So yes, you failed at your counting.

Ahh ok, I read it the wrong way round, I thought it was going to take priority over goal difference etc. In fact thinking about it, I think I do remember hearing about it at the start of the season

Last season there was a point where it looked like the title, CL places and relegation could have ended up being decided by a play off. Obviously that didn’t happen, but I think the pl didn’t want to risk this potentially happening again in the future, however unlikely that is.

As a United fan I’ve always dreaded Liverpool winning the league.

They are winning in the most bearable way.

We had accepted months ago this was happening but the fear was that they would win more.

Then they went out of the FA cup and CL and now they will win it in front of an empty stadium. No painful renditions of YNWA before games, no bus parade.

Just feels like a stat now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Out of curiosity why would you dread it?

I don’t get that. I watched United win it I think 13 times since we last did. Never once bothered me though
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Even the 1st time?

I’ve never seen Liverpool win a title and never wanted to. Maybe it’s because I know too many Liverpool fans who are absolute clowns.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not at all. I know plenty of both Liverpool and United fans that are clowns. Still wouldn’t bother me a rival winning the league. It’s only a game with no bearing on my life
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well that’s fair enough.

I get that it’s only a game but you never want to see rivals win.

And in my circle the Liverpool clowns are a lot more painful than the United clowns
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Never wanted to see United win it but when they did it never bothered me
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Sounds like it

Are you disputing the fact that Liverpool could fail if they lost 7 of the last 9 games?

Wouldn’t matter if they win the other two.

Makes your comment a bit redundant, though. May as well have said they’d have to lose four.

It was in answer to the comment 'Liverpool would have to lose all 9 games'.

posted on 17/5/20

They’d have to lose eight. That removes any doubt, seven doesn’t.

Lose 7, win 1, draw 1.

If it was only a small, realistically retrievable gap then you’d have a point. But under these circumstances I just don’t believe you.
