I sincerely hope you don't think I don't know that - because if you do then you would be wrong.

It was to help further emphasise the 6 pointer concept to those who still don't get it.
Personally I think we have a great chance to win the league if we play to our maximum. Two seasons ago we got 50 points from the last 18 games which was more than City got in the 2nd half of last season. I really think we are the strongest team from Christmas to May of any team.

Christmas to April I would say 2 of the last 3 season we have stumbled over the line a bit

No, not in referee decisions for Liverpool this season vs ours.
You can even count Arsenal in this as well.We’ve definitely had as much luck go for as against us. Even yesterday who knows what happens if it goes 2-0.

We might have won 6-2, or something improbable like that.

I’d rather win the last 20, 19 might mean losing another 6 pointer to Liverpool
What I would say is Liverpool have had everything go there way hopefully that won’t last. It’s a bit like Burnley coming 7th or Leicester winning title with so many 1 margin goals wins. Those games can easily go the other way. There really is a huge amount of luck in football.

There is luck in football but regarding the matches, Liverpool has not been leaving much to luck. If they stay healthy, even if we beat them, they are going to be hard to catch. The question is how deep are they on the attack once the fixtures start building up. If we can get a couple of guys back healthy (Verts, Sanchez, Aurier, Dier), I think we will be deep enough to carry through with or without adding a CM. Let's see if they can do the same.
Come on they’ve been lucky. Pickford calamity and mahrez pen miss in last minute. That’s 3 pts just off top of head.
The thing is when people talk about luck they talk as if we havent been lucky. Every team gets lucky, every team gets good calls, every team gets bad calls against them - its football and its sport.
If we dont win the league it is because we werent good enough and if we do it is because we were - nothing to do with good calls, bad calls or luck.

Agree in general, but I think they've had a touch more luck swinging their way.
But it's a poor excuse, and it's a silly mentality to adopt.
We can do it without moaning on about luck.

Mane had a legitimate goal ruled out at the Emirates.
You could do this all day, its a silly argument.

Liverpool are a Virgil Van Dijk away from being fucked
He is and has been amazing for them. 7 goals conceded is exceptional (The keepers made a difference too but VVD is special atm)
If anyone has a wish for Christmas a 3 month VVD lay-off would be a nice one!
