Do or Die

When was this, Kuyt?

As much as I hate to admit it, the title is now MU's to lose should we lose to Chelsea tomorrow and MU win theirs against Everton. It'll be 5 points and could be 8 points adrift if MU win their extra game in hand.

8 points!! That massive? Yes, it's that massive.
To me, 8 is unassailable. End of story and LFC should try to concentrate on CL and qualifying for CL next season. Go all out in FA Cup as well to lessen the agony.

Liverpool are in a slump. Consider this, 7 draws in the last 10 league fixtures. That's 14 dropped points and yet we are only 2 behind MU. If half of that were won, we'll be sitting pretty atop the table challenging on all fronts but sadly........( I leave it to you to complete).

What started so brightly is now crumbling like a house of cards....but the boys can still salvage the season if they beat Chelsea tomorrow. It's still not out of their hands yet but every game from now on is a must win thingy. Even draws must be avoided at all cost.

Can they do it? Hopefully they can. They did it before and there's no reason why they cannot do it again.
That means every single players have to pull up their socks and be counted, Lucas, Babel, Keane and Kuyt included. Fail and I love to see those above leaving Anfield for good and seek a new paymaster somewhere else.
Admittedly, MU are far stronger in every aspect. They got better players all round and in cover.
What we've got is a spine in Reina, Carra, Gerrard, Alonso and Torres. The problem is the supporting cast did not do enough to complement the spine and that's why LFC is in the current predicament.

I shall not dwell further. It's do or die mission. Beat Chelsea and hope MU faltered against Everton. Too much to ask?
