Liverpool to Lay Hands on the Premier League Title?

It is the final furlong of a thrilling season but of the three runners left in contention, who is in best shape to take the first prize?

Liverpool, Manchester City or Chelsea?

On Sunday night I was sitting in front of the TV watching how Liverpool relentlessly halted City at every turn, led 2-0 at half time to make the whole Anfield electric and the Liverpool fans to start yearning for the first Premier League title in 24 years. I am not a Liverpool fans, just Standard Chartered maybe, yet overwhelmed with excitement and enthusiasm seeing the Kop in delirium.

Philippe Coutinho slammed home a stunning winner.

Brendan Rodgers proven he is just the right man for the job to reminisce the Reds' glories. Who would have thought that earlier? Just like nobody thought earlier that Manchester United will fall apart under David Moyes after Alex Ferguson left his post. Ridiculous enough, both Liverpool and Manchester United seemed to have switch fate, with Liverpool taking United's last season form and the latter consistently losing hegemony.

Can Brendan Rodgers lead Liverpool to the promised land?

The remaining fixtures of Liverpool :

vs Norwich (A)
vs Chelsea (H)
vs Crystal Palace (A)
vs Newcastle United (H)

(p/s: Liverpool are yet to overcome one of the biggest obstacles in their pursuit of the Premier League title, Mourinho's Chelsea. The advantages are that the Kop are in extremely high morale and the match will be played at Anfield. They have the title fate tightly hold in their own hands, they will be champions if they can win all the four (4) matches left regardless of the results Manchester City and Chelsea obtain in their respective fixtures.)

The remaining fixtures of Manchester City :

vs Sunderland (H)
vs West Bromwich Albion (H)
vs Crystal Palace (A)
vs Everton (A)
vs Aston Villa (H)
vs West Ham (H)

(p/s: Manchester City have two (2) more games in hand. If they can win both, they will be ranked 2nd in the table after 34 matches. One (1) point behind leaders, Liverpool and one (1) point above Chelsea. The edge of City is their own Etihad home. They have played 15 Premier League home games, winning 14 out of them, and only defeated once. The winning percentage is a terrific 93.33333%.  Manchester City will not play either Liverpool or Chelsea in their remaining fixtures, so the best they can do is to win all the six (6) remaining fixtures and wait for mistakes from Liverpool and Chelsea to kindly reclaim the Premier League title.)

The remaining fixtures of Chelsea :

vs Sunderland (H)
vs Liverpool (A)
vs Norwich (H)
vs Cardiff (A)

(p/s: Chelsea will need to play a head-to-head encounter with Liverpool. If they win at Anfield, then the title can be Blues too. Sunderland, Norwich and Cardiff are not formidable opponents for Chelsea, but all the three (3) will fight their hearts and souls battling for survival in Premier League. Chelsea are wary of the spirits these team can show.)

Here is a short video of how sentimental Steven Gerrard was after the 3-2 victory against Manchester City on Sunday. He is a true legend, and deserves everything of his probable first and could be last Premier League title, considering he is already 34 years old.

Now is the best chance for Liverpool to lift the trophy after 2008/09 season where Liverpool finished 2nd at 86 points under Rafael Benitez, 4 points behind Manchester United. No doubt that Liverpool's attacking play really justified their place now at the top of the table, showing abundance of characters and perseverance.

A quarter of a century after Hillsborough, there is a sense of destiny and romance about Liverpool that neither of their rivals possesses. Liverpool not only have the will to win, they are being willed to win all across the country.

The best ending for the season would be seeing Liverpool winning the 1st Premier League title and Arsenal lifting the FA Cup at Wembly Stadium.
