Arsenal also didnt have such a hard schedule. Out of both cups, europa league no challenges (arteta still fielded too many first team players)

It all comes down to salibas injury. He was the one pushing this team to another level. It wasnt zinchenko, jesus - it was all Saliba

Arsenal has literally never had a premier league season where they had a higher average goals scored per game than what they currently have in this season. But yes, all their success boils down to one central defender.

I mean obviously Saliba has been instrumental and it's evident that they've missed him, but it's also evident to basically everyone that Arsenal's success this season can't be attributed to a single player. Saka and Ødegaard have been huge (but both also dropped a bit towards the very end).

Like Jock said, they need a bigger squad to be able to avoid the form dips. Basically every team other than City experience form dips throughout a season, City does too but they're much smaller because when key players struggle a bit they can sub them with other world class players, and their squad also has more continuity so there are more players who are accustomed to the system. And I'm sure some can be attributed to it being a young team where some key players buckled under the pressure, exemplified through Saka missing penalty against West Ham. (Saka has taken 8 career penalties and missed two, and they were arguably the two most crucial ones.)

As is tradition. Unless Man City lose or tie all their remaining games.

PUTTING THINGS INTO PERSPECTIVE.

1.For Liverpool FC to make top 4, they MUST win all their three remaining games. 9+62=71 points with a superior goal difference over Manchester United. While Manchester United drop 4 points from their possible 12 points.

2.Manchester United must not amass nine points out of a possible 12 points (From their four remaining matches) or they must drop at least 4 from 12 points. (Therefore: 2 wins and Two draws or even one more loss and a draw is the best they should get). 8+63=71points, they will then miss out because of an inferior goal difference.

Or they will self-destruct and implode and finish with less points than Liverpool FC as they have already started doing.

3.Newcastle United already have 65 points with four more games to play and because of their superior goal difference over Liverpool FC, they need to (At best ) win one, lose one, draw two to give Liverpool a realistic chance of finishing above them. 5+65=70 points.

The likelihood of the above events occurring or the probability of the aforementioned outcome happening is in favour of-

P (1)- Most likely to happen
P (2)- Likely to happen
P (3)- Less likely but possibly could happen.

The conclusion of one of the above events occurring is drawn from the variables below (Other things been equal), therefore it is not a dream or wishful thinking. It is an abstract summary (Theoretical way of looking at things) and an extrapolation of functions outside the range of known values such as:

1. Quality of Opposition
2. Recent Form
3. Permutation and Combination
4. Statistical Data
5. Logical Patterns
6. Antecedence
7. Experience
8. Will to stay up or go down
9. Survival of the fittest
10.Discipline.
11.Tactical Tweak and Formation
12. Concept

SUMMARY:

Liverpool FC will make top four if and only if they win their three remaining matches because Manchester United will stumble and implode while Newcastle United might falter and self-destruct.

My money is on Manchester United to falter and fall out of the champions league places. PERCEPTION IS REALITY. YNWA.

i dont think utd dropping 4 points is too unrealistic. our form has been shaky recently and i could see it happening if the team doesnt get their shit together. that said, i dont see liverpool winning all of their remaining games anyway. i think its just as likely that liverpool also drop points somewhere and so in the end united will get top 4

Liverpool only have Aston Villa and Southhampton left.
Southampton have nothing to play for.

the aston villa game could go either way quite easily imo. with southampton its probably either going to be a case of complete disinterest by the players because like you said, theres nothing left to play for, or they want to have a final good showing to their fans at home as a consolation. if its the latter then it will make it marginally more difficult for liverpool, though theyd probably still win anyway

Liverpool has 13-4-1 at home (second best in the league actually), 8-2-0 last 10, 7 league wins in a row. Aston Villa 1 point in their last three games on away field. I wouldn't be shocked by a draw, if you look at the top 5 leagues then bigger upsets happen mostly every week, but Liverpool are clearly favorites.

Newcastle has Brighton (H), Leicester (H), Chelsea (A) left and need 5 points (or 6 if Liverpool wins by 4 goals more than they do). They probably get that. United has Bournemouth (A), Fulham (H) and Chelsea (H) left, and need 6 points. They SHOULD get 2 wins from those games but much like Pool vs Villa, bigger upsets happen every week. Liverpool has a shot but it's less than 25% imo.

top4 is really good, given how offensively challenged they are, even fulham has scored more goals
