West Ham lost, Leicester lost, Chelsea and United got a tie, and Liverpool got 3 points. I do not remember any three points as valuable as this one in the recent memory, of course every three points is very important and the more you win the better you are as usual, but there are very few times when a team has 3 points and 4 spots ahead of that team all lose points on the same week together, that is a rare situation.
Normally let's say a team is at a spot and one rank higher or lower plays a match between each other, when one of them wins that is like 6 points because the other one also loses 3 points as well, those are usually the common ones because it is between just 2 teams, this is basically the same but with 5 teams and only one of them got a win. This is why I feel like it is going to be a great momentum change for Liverpool as well, they can recover from this and go higher.
I think 3 points are always valuable in any game, but I think the most valuable for us have been so far the wins against Spurs and Chelsea, but you're right. To gain ground on those above us is always welcome, and more so given the crisis we're in right now.
It was a win against a relegation struggler, I'll keep note, and I saw finally the 2nd goal was awarded as an own goal (shame) but I think everyone needed that boost and clean sheet, plus we didn't pick up any cards or injuries so that's 3 points and no price to pay for it.
Come on you Saints, 15 minutes to go to grab a point here. Do it for sportsbet, bitcoin & LFC. *Cough*
Come on Saints, I hate Everton
I didn't even realise Mina was injured until I saw the lineup, took a straight bet on Saints thinking he'd help us hammer Everton (yeah I hate them too, just a tiny bit less than United, tiny!). Can't wait for VVD to get us some revenge goals next derby. We need to remind them of their place =p
