Suicide? You mean like if Leicester were to take 3 points, leaving Thursday a day to eliminate another rival from CL?

Liverpool have four matches left and are currently on 57 points.

May 13 Manchester United away
May 16 West Brom away
May 19 Burnley away
May 23 Crystal Palace home

Leicester have Manchester United away, Chelsea away, and Spurs at home. They're currently six points ahead of Liverpool. If, and that's a big if, Liverpool can beat Manchester United on Thursday, they've got a great shot at finishing above Leicester.

With directions to Grant and whoever is backup to unfortunately tweak muscles and have to be subbed. Letting them know the alternative is to have Phil, Jones you.

Forcing United to have to play an outfield player in goals of which the obvious choice would be Dan James.

I imagine It would be a heavily rotated side, but the league isn’t technically over yet. I don’t think they’ll go full reserves/youth on Tuesday.

Fine. Put Martial in net, he's already got mitts.

Nice bit of management from Solskjaer to get him to hang around for another year.

What a strange feel to this game. Liverpool fans want United to win, United fans probably prefer to lose even as they are technically alive for the title, and with all the youth/reserve players on United it has mostly a preseason vibe to it, now a heavy downpour too. Match like this would be fun to see a full crowd and how they'd react to things.

Funny to think somewhere under a bridge Senator and Locke are watching this supporting United!

Funny to think you haven't read this thread or any of the previous versions if you think I cheer for Liverpool (or anyone...hint hint, nudge nudge). Still it's not like todays result matters, even if Leicester pull this out they are clearly going to choke their last two games. That they are struggling this badly against United's C team when they desperately need to win says it all.

Should’ve started Rashford over Greenwood

Like imagine you're Leicester and you need to win and you are playing backups and put up this kind of effort.

Rodgers is just giving an over the top audition for Spurs. I mean if they crater twice in a row, Levy has to hire him, right?

Matic clearly getting the instruction to let Leicester score as he just stands there while Soyuncu towers above.

This Chelsea-Arsenal match has been a comedy show so far, highly entertaining if you like hilarious errors.
