Liverpool's Decisive Next Two Games

Seven games in and Liverpool’s Jürgen Klopp (left) no longer knows his best team or best system. It doesn’t help that he plays favorites in team selection. 

And what about the title race? He’ll never acknowledge it – but it could be over by today or the next. 

The Reds will confront current leaders Arsenal at 16:30 and host champions Manchester City a week later. 

Two wins and they’d be back in it, of course, and you wouldn’t have put such a turnaround past Klopp’s teams of the previous four years. But on current form, it does look like a fantasy – although as a Reds fan, I’ll not admit it! 

Yesterday, in a Scottish Premiership match, Celtic managed to earn a 2-1 victory over St Johnstone by the skin of their teeth! 

The Perth-based side scored an own goal in the forty-second minute – but they recovered well enough to score a stoppage-time equaliser. Celtic looked set to drop points for the second consecutive away match in the league – but Giorgos Giakoumakis turned home Alexandro Bernabei’s cross in the fifth minute of added time to allow them to snatch three points and consolidate their position at the top of the table.

Ange Postecoglou's side are definitely not firing like they were in the first six games of the season. There seems to be a visible drop in intensity, and certainly they are not finishing the chances they continue to create.
