As frustrating as it was to drop 2 points against a team we should have won, we are still in the title race, very much so.
I think Arsenal will drop points in at least one game and even if City win all their games, we MUST win all our remaining 7 games - tough to do but I think we will do it - just. Regardless of yesterday and poor finishing plus mistakes, we are still playing exceptionally well.
At the beginning of the season, I would have bitten your hand off where we are now - 1 trophy in the bag and challenging for the title in probably the most exciting race for years. I would have settled for a trophy and top four this season (of course we did not know JK was leaving).

BS (no pun intended, btw), that's the spirit, man. The Utd game hurts BUT it's gone now so no point being all sore about it. We have to look to the next game now vs Atalanta in the EL. Had we lost to Utd then for sure, that would have been severely damaging on a psychological level. City are still behind us and Arsenal are top on GD. Bro, it could have been worse if you look at things overall
After this week, all 3 clubs have their chances of winning the title intact rgardless and that is why the rescued point yesterday is that important, IMO.
The only thing we screwed up is that the margin for error we had has now gone with 7 games to play which I was hoping would be prolonged for longer. Alas, it did not happen. Now, it is time to act and get it done. Right now, it's win all 7 or bust. It is what it is.
@Davey Sulls, will you start the countdown?

We are going to thrash someine 8-0 at home before the end of season.
So C. Palace odds is 150/ 1
Remember you heard it here first.

Crazily we have scored the most goals this season out of any team in the top 5 leagues.
Yes a big factor of this is down to us scoring 28 goals in the Europa but we’re still 2nd top scorers in the league and have Salah who is 3rd top scorer and Nunez 12th, Jota 15th Diaz 23rd top scorers in the league.
Whilst missing chances seems to be out problem id say a bigger one is not keeping clean sheets. We don't have to score lots of goals past teams and 1 nil wins would still get us 3 points.
We've only managed to keep 9 clean sheets this season which is the same as Everton. If we shut up shop better then that will take the pressure off the forwards.

Two things, I’ve stuck a fiver on us beating Palace 8-0 (what’s the worst that could happen? ) . Second, JK is 100% correct. Stop conceding sloppy goals, stop letting teams have a chance, then we give ourselves a chance.

Agreed JK and VV.
Klopp’s philosophy is almost like NBA.
Throw men forward high risk high reward.
Bet on our defenders and keeper being able to keep them out.
It’s entertaining for sure, but I think it might soon have had its day.

I agree, giving sloppy goals has been our issue. Keeping clean sheet will help us win games.

Thats why I can't see us winning all our remaining games. Arsenal are far better defensively and more clinical then us. And City are just a crazy squad.
If we are talking about dropping points, only we look like the team that will
Arsenal are blasting teams away, and city will always get a result, into their usually strongest period of the year.
We however will always concede against anyone.
