Or 1 point ahead of Watford...

Incredible. I've no idea what's happening.

[eFestivals]

so anyway, Klopp is the saviour of the world and is definitely getting something different to Rodgers out of those players. Honest.

I think this is the most appropriate time to welcome Mr Klopp to Liverpool FC. This is what you have to deal with buddy. The amazing level of consistency. The consistency of inconsistence. It will be interesting to see how the laugh a minute pressers evolve from this point forward

Leicester could win it the way things are going. Any team who puts together a half decent run over 10 games could. 

Still shocked at Chelsea though. I am every week.

Hopefully that acts as a wake up call for him and the owners. The keeper is muck and that midfield was awful.

Lovely finish from Moreno though! haha

The longer the season continues like this, the more annoyed/disappointed I will be if/when arsenal fall short of the title. If Wenger can't win it when there are no challengers then I'm not sure he ever will again.

I'm thinking the next few games (Chelsea, Everton, Liverpool, Man City) are going to expose Leicester ... but if it doesn't, they're probably going to be comfortably in the top 4.

same as ever, missing too many players.

wasn't that the only shot on target for the whole match? - a lovely goal, but didn't count.

That's twice in a week he's been robbed of lovely goals.

It was one of them though wasn't it? They all heard the whistle so Moreno relaxed, defender stopped and goalkeeper relaxed.

Would he of scored if the whistle didn't go? Questionable.

Aha. Yeah thats a tough run alright. They're obviously a huge outsider even for top 4 but who knows the way this league is going.

Leicester are just this season's Southampton? Will run out of steam once injuries and suspensions bite.

You would imagine a final position of 6th/7th.

the flag didn't go up until after it had left his foot, from what I remember seeing - and the goalie tried to get it.

Imagine, yep.

But if they don't? I'd say all of us have been expecting them to drop by now, and instead they're going the other way.

However good or not they might be, they're a better team than just Vardy.

Well looks like Garry Monk's gone from Swansea.

A return for Brendan would be the ideal solution, but I think he may feel this sort of job is below him now...

Clough is back at Burton, but I think Swansea are getting Moyes.

No chance. He doesn't fit with our footballing ethos, he'd keep us in the league - but would completely sacrifice the style of play that the board find so important. He's also ruled himself out:

If Rodgers doesn't want it, I expect us to look for a foreign coach like we did with Sousa & Laudrup. Lucien Favre (ex Monchengladbach coach) is one I fancy. Walter Mazzarri (ex Inter/Napoli coach) also been linked.

[The Placid Casual]

Yep, apparently he's already been sacked.

 

A manager ruling themselves out in the news means nothing nowadays, but I think Moyes would be a poor appointment where your fans are concerned. You'll finish strongly but as you've mentioned, that style of play will be sacrificed. Rodgers is your man if he wants the job. Now how long until he bids £25m for Joe Allen?

true, tho that article doesn't even have him ruling himself out, it just says that he's believed to have ruled himself out.

I have a strong feeling they'll go for Moyes, despite any qualms about their style of play. They'll want an experienced boss to bring them out of this mess, but I feel they'll also see a benefit in a fresh face, keeping Rodgers out of the running for the time being. I disagree with this and think the best man to hire is Rodgers but we'll see.

As I said prior to his appointment, to much ridicule on here, Klopp cruises into the top 4 with LFC in this league.

And cruises back down to 8th tonight.

[mrtourette]

For all those insistent that the quality of the league is shit because for once is competitive, long may it continue.

Yeah LFC fans got a bit carried away alright.

I'm really enjoying it, very interesting! Despite Utd playing the worst football in living memory.
