Well, Liverpool have given themselves a mountain to climb.
Jurgen Klopp’s side were beating Chelsea 2-0 at Stamford Bridge last night in a must-win Premier League game.
But Liverpool wound up drawing 2-2 in what might be a coffin nail for their title aspirations.
The Reds are 11 points behind leaders Manchester City, who have played one game more.
Even still, it’s very difficult seeing Liverpool making up that deficit.
And Jamie O’Hara has claimed the Premier League title race is done and dusted, stressing that Pep Guardiola’s side won’t drop that many points.
He told talkSPORT: “They’re not going to drop ten points. You’re joking, aren’t you? They’re dominating the league and they’re dominating everyone. It’s over. It’s well and truly over.
“Liverpool had to win that game. They’re conceding too many goals. Chelsea are conceding too many goals.”
Double blow
To make matters worse, Liverpool will now lose Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah.
The Reds attackers – who scored the goals against Chelsea – have left for their country’s Africa Cup of Nations campaign.
Losing both of those for most of January is an absolute hammer blow and O’Hara is right – the Merseysiders are finished as far as winning the Premier League title goes.
Salah and Mane have netted 33 goals for Liverpool this season, illustrating their importance.
