I'm disappointed that we're not a few points clear at the top. I think everyone can agree that draws at home have cost us.
But at the same time, dwelling on that point will get us nowhere. I think positivity will help massively from the fans at Anfield, it always gets players running that bit more, trying that bit harder.
I think that Rafa could certainly do with a bit more positivity too.
Overall, as others have said, this is the first time I can actually see Liverpool in with a shout at this stage of the season, and for that reason alone, I'm staying positive.
To answer the original post, yes, I'd have taken this at the start of the season. But having seen how the seasons' unfolded, you can't help but feel a little disappointed.
