00:00little charge and obviously they're in an unbelievable position. As we come into February
00:05now as well, they're at the top of the table, they've got that gap arsenal on them to really
00:12keep the pressure on. It's a great position for them to be in and obviously fantastic
00:16in the likes of the Champions League as well, looking ahead to those European night at Anfield
00:22as well, something Arnie Schlott hasn't experienced with the knockout football, the cup competitions
00:27as well. In terms of the title race, is there a position that you can see in the world,
00:33you can see that they actually slip up and don't win the title now? They're in the massive
00:38favourites and they are seeming to just continue this consistent form every week now.
00:44Yes, they've still got some tricky games to go Liverpool. They've still got to play Arsenal
00:50at home so they could potentially cut the gap there. They've still got to go to Chelsea
00:56away. They've still got to go to Aston Villa away. They've still got Tottenham at home
01:03to play, it might be a little bit tricky depending on what business they've done. They've got
01:08some tough games left Liverpool, the Flags of Fulham away even, you're not guaranteed
01:14a win there are you? But there's Michael Arteta saying that, I don't think he said this with
01:24any real malice or provocation, but he came out and said that teams normally slip up but
01:32Liverpool haven't slipped up yet. Declan Rice after Arsenal's win over Man City says we're
01:37coming to hunt Liverpool down. They can certainly well try but if Liverpool don't drop the points
01:43then it'll be impossible for them to hunt them down. This time next week after the Merseyside
01:50derby Liverpool could be nine points clear of Arsenal. So even if Arsenal did come to
01:54Anfield and get a win then they'd still be six points clear. The only one thing that
02:02might stop the momentum a little bit is if they go deeper in the cup competitions. Obviously
02:08you're not into the last 16 of the Champions League, depends on who they get there, what's
02:13going to happen with the FA Cup. Carabao Cup, they're into the semi-final, second leg, they've
02:20got to play Tottenham, could get to the final there. But maybe Arnaslott will look at it
02:25pragmatically and think well do we really need to go and win the FA Cup, the Champions
02:29League or the Premier League to balance and ask well let's just go for the Premier League.
02:33I dare say some supporters will be quite happy with that, they want to see a league title
02:38but we'll need to sort things out, they didn't get to celebrate the last one properly. It
02:46wasn't all that long ago Liverpool won the Champions League, they've been to two finals
02:49and look I don't think when games come around you'd ever want to lose them and that won't
02:53be Liverpool's approach but if you ask supporters you can only win one trophy, it's definitely
02:58going to be the Premier League.
