2020/21 has to be the strangest season in a long time, can't recall the top slot changing hands as often as it has this campaign. Liverpool seemingly don't have a chance of taking the top slot two years on the run, far too many injuries to contend with, around eight first choice players out at the moment with long term injuries. Covid 19 isn't helping (anyone) either, affected players being side lined while infected, then struggling to regain full fitness. Liverpool have lost their consistency with so much enforced rotation, it's almost a different team being fielded every other game.
My main bugbear though is VAR, it needs to go. Disruptions are too long the flow of the game is being destroyed. Offside decisions are ridiculous, goals being ruled out for an elbow being over the "line", it's pathetic.
If Liverpool don't beat Citeh this afternoon they can definitely kiss goodbye to retaining the title this time around.
