    I don't think so. None of Liverpool's competitors look to have the consistency to catch them unless they collapse.

    Good points for Bournemouth and Brentford and a win for West Ham - Graham Potter? More like Harry Potter, am I right?

      Bournemouth lost 2 points today and shouldnt have given away that last free kick (well executed though) however even for me taking off my eye patch, Brooks should have been red. So happy to take a point. Given our injury list probably should be happier

          Yep mentioned on Stuff before the game. I still haven't forgiven Wood for missing those sitters against Man City last season.

                For our older listeners - RIP to Tony Book. Managed to follow Malcolm Allison, one of those large than life coaches who sprang up in the 1960s, to Bath City, Toronto, Plymouth and Manchester City. Was already 30 before he joined Plymouth yet managed to win all the domestic trophies plus a European trophy with City. After he retired from playing at almost 40, he became City manager.

                  A big win for Arsenal in the NLD but the problems up front remain with all of the injuries. A terrible miss from Ødegaard, which wouldn't have made the last 10 mins so nervy.

                          Yeah we are too frivolous at the back. Just have to get back to basics sometimes

                              Dogmeat, that was a hard watch wasn’t it. Leno has been our saviour many times but that was a mare of a game for him. Sometimes playing it out from the back is just wrong. Hoof it upfield and start again. I still think there is a very good team hiding itself and continuing to be very Fulhamish in playing well against good teams and very average against those we should be beating.

                                That was a weird game. West Ham with 3 shots and 3 goals, 2 of them gifted by Fulham. Iwobi gets 2 without shooting either time.

                                  Magpies served with only 12 fit players. Think I heard them say our bench had an average of three premier league games between them. Injury crisis has got to haunt us soon, but for now will take that amazing win. Unexpected and delicious

                                    Up the Cherries, one of my favourite sides other than Villa. Funny as I never rated Kluivert when he was at Roma, but man he is some player now.

                                      Kluivert should be playing for Fulham. Apparently he had signed terms a couple of years ago? and had visa or work permit problems so couldn’t come.
                                      Problem must have solved easily enough and Bournemouth picked him up. With our ability to miss penalties and scoring chances I think we could welcomed him.

                                        With Bournemouth, it looks very much like a triumph of the system and the players all knowing their role in that system, even when key players are out. Pressing high is a great way to disrupt your opposition but every player needs to know where to move to or you get caught out and are wide open.

                                        Moyes gets a win and goals for Everton - Spurs probably an ideal opponent at this time. Brighton beat Man U yet again, United's formation manages to combine being overrun in midfield with being weak down their defensive flanks. I'm not even sure what they are trying to do.

                                          I said it before Amorim came in, 3 centre halfs playing in a low block is asking for trouble in England. The game is too fast for it to succeed there these days. It's an Italian formation that only works in Italy, difference is, is that the Italians are conditioned to playing it.
