Guys I don't want to jump the gun here but if we win tomorrow we have a REALLY good chance at the Top 4. The only problem is that we need to seriously upgrade our roster for Europe next year.

Kane being injured really helps our Top four hopes. I think we will finish 2nd if we win tomorrow. Wins against Burnley/Arsenal/City will be a huge surge at the right time for us.

I don't see it as a problem. If we know it, Klopp does too. I think we'll have a huge summer window, aided by some sales like Sturridge.

My only fear is that we sign of bunch of talented promising players instead of talented established players. I'd like to see us bring in some 26-28 year olds that are in their prime

I think we'll see one or two of those, but we know that's not klopp's MO... And I'm okay with that... I'm willing to have patience with this process

I am patient and have total confidence in Klopp. I'm just hoping like you guys that we have a big summer. I just don't want to see us competing on three or four fronts and one or two injuries sink us.

I think we'll be busy this summer, because we'll be playing in Europe next season..

We may get one or two "big signings," but I'd imagine most will be young players... by that I mean, on the cusp of really breaking through, not reserve level..

city could say the same though. They didn't miss a chance like lallana did- but sterling, aguero, and de Bruyne all missed in the box

You posted this only 15 minutes into the game.

Actually, I think we looked the better of the two teams today and we should have come away with 3 points.

We came away with 1. I can live with that. Man City is a top team.

I didn't realize every team in the top 7 hold a game in hand on us. We desperately need to rattle off wins in this next stretch.

Game could have gone either way but feel fortunate to at least come ou my with a draw. Top 4 is still very attainable but the remaining schedule worries me with all the bottom half of the table teams coming up.

We are not safe by any means, but Arsenal is falling apart and Manu may have 2 games in hand, but they'd have to win both.

But, you're 100% right, we'd damn well better take care of business against mid-to-bottom table in the next 10.

I saw a Facebook graphic of the biggest matches in April. It seemed to have all the four immediate rivals playing each other and even Chelsea a few times in there, so if we want to solidify our chances at Champs league, now is the time.

Unfortunately we don't have any Top-6 minnows to get fat on the rest of the way. Hardest stretch of the season left!
