I, for one, am hoping and praying that Suarez is still your main man in 25 years mate...
A bit like Ryan Giggs you mean ? I'll be happy if he wins half of what that lad has won

25 years would make Suarez 51. So no, not quite like Giggs. Also, Suarez could win the league every season for the remainder of his career and still wouldn't have 50% of the honours Giggs has. Chew on that

OK then. Can we settle on 25% ?
Never ever tempt fate like that again.
Right, balls out time for the resident scousers, no more tippy tapping around it. Are you going to win the league this year, yes or no?
I think they might be a year away.
I can't imagine any of them will say yes but just incase I'm arming myself with some laughing emoticons.
Quite the opposite. I think, without major investment, this might be the closest they get for a while. Ourselves, City and Chelsea will get our shit together next season. All 3 with new managers in the Summer was bound to bring inconsistancy with it.
Nope. Third, I think.
The way things are going with youse, you might have another new manager in the summer.
If we do get top 4, we need serious investment. Two or three players of the highest quality along with 1 or 2 squad players. I would love for us to make a move for Lars Bender.
The way things are going with youse, you might have another new manager in the summer.
Not likely. I've always fancied us for a strong 2nd half of the season. We'll still get top 4.
I know we're not even half way through this one yet but I think next season could be an absolute humdinger.
I've typed this out and deleted it 4 times now. In short, I dunno.
City will definitely be there and I think United will too (though admittedly there will be some bias in there). If Chelsea sign a top striker they will finish top 4, if not then I think they'll be in the scrap with yourselves and Arsenal. I'm still expecting Liverpool and Arsenal to fall away. It's already starting to show with Arsenal.
You have it wrong Arsenal won't finish 2nd Liverpool may displace Chelsea but on the other hand no. The top four wont look much different to last year but for a shift in places.
Don't get ahead of yourselves and never right off proven teams, especially champions, it's a daft ethic to believe in.

If I held a gun to your head, who do you pick?

I have no issue writing off the Champions, especially after losing their heart. Liverpool will finish ahead of United.
fecking scousers .... It's probably a plastic gun Carl. As you where.
I strongly disagree BFC very strongly, I would take a bet or a forum based forfeit that united finish above your so far over achievers against our so far under achievers.
OK, this may change depending on signings but:
City
United
Arsenal
Liverpool or Chelsea
They're gonna fecking do it, aren't they, cnuts
Jokes aside your spot on there, I do think Chelsea will have to much eventually, the must likely outcome is Liverpool in some non plus battle with Spurs.OK, this may change depending on signings but:
City
United
Arsenal
Liverpool or Chelsea
I will still take that bet or forum forfeit barns.... Just say the word.
No. Jesus, some of you lot need to get your shit together.
Do what ?
fecking hell your a new mans Kevin Keegan.
If they beat City I'm off to the bookies with at least a hundred quid.
They won't.
I think the second today was off side, not the pass from Suarez, but the one he received. Didn't see a decent replay on motd. Also should have given away 2 penalties. Not as convincing.
they shouldn't but stranger things have happened... this would place would implode. Literally the first time I can remember for a very long time wanting City to actually win a game.
City will rinse them front to back and reality will strike, either way it will give united ground so feck um let em bash it out.
I don't think we'll win the league on the basis that a side that's finished 7th the previous season couldn't possibly bridge such a gap. A top 4 spot would be euphoric as far as Liverpool are concerned. Along with Everton, I think we both have the most exciting young managers in The Premiership. We have the edge insofar that our key player (Suarez) has just signed a new deal, whereas Everton's is a loan deal who will probably be gone at the end of the season - I find it amusing that Manchester United fans, after 2 comfortable victories against an average Villa side, & a very poor West Ham outfit, want to stick a 'flat-track bully' label on the side that's currently 8 points ahead of them, & sitting at the top of the table. Even if we lose our next 2 games & United win theirs, we'll still be 2 points clear having played the vast majority of our main competitors away from home. Never mind the question marks about Liverpool's capability of cutting it against the better sides, United still have a lot to prove if they're serious about a top 4 finish.
You're one tough cookie.
How about a league title, & a league cup win then ?
I don't know why everyone is so confident of a City win, the last time City beat Liverpool was January 2012. Both teams are in unbelievable form at the minute, both teams have dodgy defences, are scoring for fun and have the leagues two top forwards. I can't call it because I genuinely don't think there is much between the two teams at the minute, they have home advantage but are without Aguero but we have Suarez and are coming of the back of 4 victories with 17 goals and 5 different scorers. I'm looking forward to the game.
The flat track bully label is used a lot by your mates too. B9 in the last few pages.
If it was at Anfield I'd fancy you to win. City are marvelous at home though.
Still susceptible to conceding though (as are we), I think it'll be a thriller with unstoppable strikers and incompetent defences, whose gonna score more, Kompany or Skrtel?
You've not paid much attention to where the battle is usually won in these games and that's midfield. I suppose it will be a good yard stick seeing how a real quality midfield can nullify an attacking threat, snuffing it out.
Free scoring is all well and good but City will require some of Brendan's earlier bus parking tactics in order to survive. They have to much IMO and will beat you across the middle and wide positions.
Hit and run is the order of the day here.
Rogers has patiently built a very good team. I think they are still not as good as City, Arsenal and Chelsea. But they have been pretty consistent in mopping up the points from clubs they should be beating. On current form I would fancy us beating them for sure. But because of our poor start, they have built up a healthy lead. I think by Jan end we will see where the potential contenders will be. This season...I still cannot see past City. But Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and United will be pretty darn close. I don't see City running away with it.
Conversely, its the hardest two away league games we've got left to face all season. Once these two are out of the way, all teams have to come to Anfield in 2014.
Marathon and not a sprint I've been told for the past 13 years on here.
From what I've seen it's Arsenal v City for the league, then a gap to Chelsea. Liverpool, Everton and Man Utd for 4th Place Trophy. Spurs v Newcastle for 7.
