2677987, This is a confusing position.

The post seems to come from a place of anti-Liverpool snark: "haha! They're not that good!"

And fair enough. That's good hate. But the logical implication of that position...

>they've fallen behind chelsea in the XG table too. they'll
>qualify for CL and end up with around 85 points, but they're
>not going to seriously challenge City.

...is that City don't actually have Liverpool as a serious challenger for the title, and that Chelsea notwithstanding, the chip goes to City again.

And that's to be celebrated why?

I mean, you'd think that as an EPL fan, what you'd want—what would be ideal—is a tight three-way race all the way through April, with LFC, MC, and Chelsea all within a point or two of each other the whole season. But what this post implies is that you see City wrapping it up by Christmas.

Strange.
