In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.

Fixed.
Congratulations to Liverpool and Jürgen Klopp on winning the league.
Good thread to get used to it early
.
.Please, no.
I love jinx threads.
What jinx? Have you not seen the table, the league is in the bag already for them. The pricks, can’t deny Klopp has been great for them.
When they eventually win it, what do you all reckon how long will media wank fest go for?
It was bound to happen someday. Life goes on.
that the wankfest might start as early as Jan 3rd is a worry atm
City could really do with winning that game

That may not happen again this season
Congratulations to Liverpool and Jürgen Klopp on winning the league.
Mahrez’s penalty miss and Pickford’s short arms will never be forgiven
Who will slip for them this season?
Should just give it to them now.
Its gonna be the fecking pits.
It's going to be the club version of England winning a WC (for anyone who isn't English, living in the UK).

Coming home la?
City need to beat them, just give them a wobble then who knows.
Still a lot of football to be played.
Plenty of time left for them to feck it up.

30 years. They’ve been doing it that long without winning the league...
One reason I really like the redcafe is the quality of the banter.
On behalf of all Liverpool fans world-wide ,I can only say. May all your wishes come true.

Might be possible that 90 points won't be enough to wine the title this year.
About 2 weeks ago I predicted that city would win the title and T'ham/Chelsea/Arsenal would fight for the CL spots. Suddenly it looks all different and even Utd might have a crazy run to secure 4th.
I wouldn't give Kloppo the title yet but i wouldn't begrudge (hope that's the correct english saying) him if he does.

This needs to happen.
40 years ago today I was at OT watching us beat United 3-0. It was the season we coasted to the league title & only conceded 16 goals in 42 games. Played some good football too. So I'm gonna stick my neck out & say that we've got a decent chance of finishing in the top 4 this season.
There. I've said it.

You just know this will happen eventually. But it'll be Giroud instead of Morata who's total crap.This needs to happen.
No longer than it did when you lot finally won the league under Ferguson. The idea that the media collectively love Liverpool and hate United is bollocks on toast, quite frankly. We're both big clubs and we both get a fairly sympathetic press. If Liverpool do win the league - and there's many a slip betwixt cup and lip - it'll be a good story for the press. 'Big club with huge fanbase finally wins the league after a long time' is a good story, no matter what the circumstances. It was in 1993, it would be in 2019.
No doubt you'd hate it. I fecking loathed it when you did it in the 90s, but there's no media conspiracy at play.
I remember people laughing at klopp. Better than Mourinho in the modern times of football. That is of course not much of an achievement.
Is Mo Salah a member of the Egyptian Olympic Diving team ?
3 things why I don't see Spurs beating then to the title:
1. Liverpool have already a 6 points lead. Not much with all the game remaining but their form has to take a big dive and Spurs need to be very consistent, for that to happen.
2. The game they played against each other, earlier this season, Spurs were totally outplayed by them and lucky to get away not conceding 4 or more goals. And that was away from anfield, were Liverpool are almost unbeatable.
3. People often forget but Klopp actually has experience in title challenges and actually winning them (2 times). On the other hand Poch for all his remarkable work is still yet to win one, at any of his clubs. Klopp knows how to keep things calm in situations like this when pressure is bulking up gradually more and more, so that his team remains focused until the end.
Man City would've been the only team to stop them this season but they wont, cause pep is a Pep Guardiola is my idol and he crumbles under pressure and that mentality has transmited to his players. They wont win against Liverpool on January 3rd, that is as clear as fraudiolas bald head.

Would Morata miss though?This needs to happen.
Long way to go, City have great depth in the team and if Van Dyke gets injured, people will expect our defence to falter.
Worst case scenario: Scousers win the league and the media has a orgy over them and become unbearable.
Best case scenario: They choke (yet again) and it becomes comedy gold for years to come.
Only time will tell.

Currently on course for 102 points.
I can see them finishing on 95 points so in that scenario Spurs and Man. City could only afford to drop 6 more points each (and they play each other so could easily drop 2 each).
Of course premier league dosen't work like that but the reality is they've got most of their tough away fixtures out of the way and after Man. City their hardest fixtures will be at Anfield (think they'll get a draw at least at Old Trafford).
Of course it was like this in 2014.....
Only difference in that season is weren't they 3rd or 4th at xmas and then came in with an amazing run that got them up to 1st. Different this time, it;s certainly their title to lose.

This was the situation in 2013 btw:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/25442148
They lost 2-1 away to Chelsea next game aswell btw (Man. United beat Norwich 1-0 so were only two points off Liverpool at that stage).
Could be EIGHTEEN points better off than in 13/14 if they beat Arsenal......actually for some reason premier league played game less back in 13/14 by time we got to Boxing day.

Good god, some of the crap in this thread that they have won the league already! We are at the half way point, still a long way to go plus CL coming up. They have done well but still a long way to go yet.
I'm going to throw up
You remember the wank fest from that year?
Don't think you can compared then and now. I don't think there's a conspiracy but it does seem media is desperate for Liverpool to win it.
We're still only slight favourites with the bookies (4/5). & if the greatest team in the universe (City) can lose 3 league games out of 4, I'm pretty sure it could happen to us at some point in the season. Far bigger leads than 6 points have been squandered before. Especially as we're only at the half-way stage.
