It's all a bit embarrassing seeing him these days. We all know he's lost it. It's only him that doesn't.

We should have played the B team against villa in the worthless and the C team against Everton in the FA Cup...

Reds win at Tottenham. I think I fancy them for the title. No don't laugh - I'm hot on my predictions.

But can they handle 7 days between games?

Liverpool only need another 20 points to guarantee top 4, and we are still in January. What a season.

Man Utd 0 Burnley 2.

A magnificent 94.5 minutes all round team performance by the Clarets last night at Old Trafford with two magnificent goals to deservedly take three well earned points.

Have we ever had a season like this where one team has been so dominant, while the rest are so close together.

If, as seems likely, Liverpool win their two games in hand they will have 70 points, 19 more than second placed Man City.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are in 4th place with 40 points a mere 17 points ahead of second to bottom Watford on 23 points!

An even tighter mere 11points separate Watford from 5th position!

Southampton have shown what a short run of wins can do in a table like this, leaping from the relegation zone just before Xmas up to a heady 9th position now which but for giving away a 2-0 lead at home to lose 2-3 last week would have seen them in 7th place!

The winner is decided and Man City and Leicester seem shoo ins but the battle for 4th and 5th open to about a dozen teams!

MUFC, I don't feel they deserve to be 'The' united at the moment, are currently 30 points behind Liverpool who have 2 games in hand and 11 points above 19th! Surely they can't...

I've not seen a lot of non-Liverpool games this season, and everybody seems to bring their A game when they play us, which has left me with the possibly inaccurate feeling that as your uniteds, your chelseas and your [expletive deleted] have continued their dives in to mediocrity the rest of the league has been coming up to meet them.

Their uniform mediocrity should bring them a great feeling of togetherness. No slight at Burnley, you can only beat what is put in front of you afterall...

I thought that Burnley demonstrated its just as important what you do off the ball as well as on it.

I thought that Liverpool were extremely lucky to come away from Shrewsbury still in the competition, no doubt they will win the replay but was very impressed with the Shrews play at times today.

Unimpressive from the reds, and the least desired result,although it was never a penalty. The replay team may actually be weaker than the team today as Klopp has already given the senior players the week off as it's our 'winter break', and the FA Cup isn't a priority.

At the Fortress [expletive deleted] are very very lucky to escape with a point with only 3 bookings and no sending offs, they rolled about on the floor at every given opportunity the cheats! But of course that’s nothing new for them in this fixture

You can't knock results.

A vital point in [expletive deleted]'s fight to avoid relegation!

Looks like Pep has already started his holiday.

Generally not true JD, depends how many foreign personnel/players are in their team.

There are no RULES in Association Football.. they are all Laws.

Watch Burnley then.
