Oh my goodness West Brom drew with Liverpool at The Hawthorns. One week after inflicting humiliating defeat on Manchester United (and delivering a frisson of schadenfreude for Manchester City fans) the "Baggies" bagged a point against the Man (City) eating "Cannibals."
There has been a pattern present all season for Liverpool that is evidenced here. The "'Balls" will beat City or another top club and then drop points against lesser opposition. I don't know if it's distraction (Liverpool are still playing in the Champion's League), lack of concentration, complacency or what it is but whatever it is it's the reason Liverpool are in third place behind Manchester United--with United having a game in hand!--and light years behind City, the champions they have defeated three of four this season. It is puzzling.
For West Brom the four points the last two weekends against the league's runners-up are almost are almost surely not going to be enough to keep them up.
