Typical Arsenal fans, always trying to come up with a different explanation for something, because you don't like it.

It's an obvious explanation to fluctuating odds, if lots of bets are put on a team to win the league the odds are clearly going to shorten.

If that's what you want to believe 
The truth is, there's no genuine reason to believe that more Liverpool fans have bet on Liverpool, than Arsenal fans have bet on Arsenal. It's just what you choose to believe. Doesn't make you right.
If what you said was true, we'd probably be joint favourites to win the League according to the odds.

Liverpool fans are very delusional and believe insane things about their own team, eg. Joe Cole is better than Lionel Messi, while Arsenal fans ate very fatalistic. Plus there are more of the former.Scott_LFC wrote:If that's what you want to believe :)The truth is, there's no genuine reason to believe that more Liverpool fans have bet on Liverpool, than Arsenal fans have bet on Arsenal.

Every fan base has those crazy fans. I could say that United fans think that Welbeck is better than Sturridge.
In fact, I think it was you who thought Welbeck was better than Suarez.
How did that work out?

That season he was, I never said Suarez wouldn't improve. He has obviously eclipsed Welbeck now.Scott_LFC wrote:ResurrectionRooney wrote:

Anyone remember when Raul Meireles was voted by Liverpool fans as the best player in the League?

I'd like to think that Liverpool fans have changed with the team, but after every victory there are dozens of posts saying, "My word, we're going to win it." I got warned by the moderating council for saying that I would take forth place. 
I then got inundated with responses along the lines of, "if we challnge for title we get forth anyway pal." That really opened my eyes.

Thanks. Although there are battles to be fought, bunkers to be bombed, planes to shoot down, and brotherhoods to form, we have come so far and I am tearing up a little bit.Zzonked wrote:RIP in peace season. Congrats on the title.

I meant Chelsea, Liverpool still in a scrap for 4th place.

At least the United outside the top 4 bowl looks to be secured.

I love how the graphic already assumes that Liverpool are going to win.

"4 games away."
"Set to win."
"Winning 1st league title."

Sunderland took a point off City, can they do the same against Chelsea?
