6 wins 1 lose

[Dreambeliever]

That's is possible from our last 7.

Only Chelsea at home is a tough game on paper, with Torres on form again.

Would be enough to sneak 4th?

 

[the count]

I don't think so. There is a predictor thingy on the Beeb website and I reckoned we would end up with 68 points, four behind Man City.
I think they have dropped a lot of their points on the road and even though they have a hard run in the majority of those matches are at Eastlands

 

[acejmk]

Yes I think we might just do it with city finishing 5 on 69 points we do have the best run in I just thought so much this was going to be our season oh well how fucking wrong was I.

 

[FoxForceFive]

City'll get fourth with 4 points gap by my workings, us fifth.

 

[Stulikesdrums]

1. United
2. Arsenal
3. Chelsea
4. City
5. Villa
6. Spurs
7. Liverpool

 

[acejmk]

My workings say 6 wins and a draw with the chavs so we finish on 70 I missed that part off.

I fucking hope not please god no the arse will win the league with 86 points

 

[Squiggles]

If we really believe we'll get fourth, and I mean really, proper heart felt believe that we have what it takes, then we might, just might, scrape fifth.

I know people are getting disillusioned with football because of the money factor, but I don't believe this is the case this season. Sure, in other years we might have been able to blag a spot in the CL, but does a club who has lost as many games as we have this season deserve to be in the Champions League?

If we finish 4th yeah.

 

[Hansern]

If City fail to beat Everton tomorrow, then I'll start believing again.

 

[franklyfrank]

Nah, we've blew it. No 4th place for us. 6th at best.

 

[Farkmaster]

Where's the evidence, from preseason all the way until now, that we are going to win 6/7 games?

There simply isn't any.

[SummerOnions]

If we miss out on 4th, i don't want it to be close.

Hopefully that way the owners will fuck off with Rafa.

+1.

I admire the eternal optimism, but like when Everton finished above us in the league we a couple games to go, simple mathematics will eventually put out any flames of hope.

Exactly my point, let's write off this season and force the owner+manager out.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Although I'm as pessimistic as everyone else, can we applaud Dreamy's efforts to be positive?

 

[Mistadobalina]

If Everton can beat City we are back in it I reckon. But when have they ever done us a favour.

 

[Delinquent]

I don't think we can overhaul Tottenham, never mind Citeh. We'll be 6th or worse this season now.

i'd be surprised if we get higher than 6th based on current performances

 

[jexykrodic]

In a season where we've shown no consistency I can't see us getting more than, say, 15 points and I don't think it'll be enough.

That said, I'm amazed we're even in with a shout after 10 losses so we can't say Spurs, Citeh or Villa are consistent.

Hope of 4th rather than expectation.

Europa League win would make the medicine slightly more palatable but that's a lottery bet. Ah sod it, it's all lost.

 

[Avmenon]

Yeah.

The thought of not being in the CL next year raelly hurts 🙁

Sadly I thought this might happen back in Sept.

We still can get fourth but cannot afford a single dropped point with the exception of Chelsea.

I was at acceptance that we'd never win the leauge under Rafa 2 years ago :'(

And the evidence is in Torres. If he continues his form we can win 6 games out of 7 against weak sides.

Before Utd we were flying and lets face it if Nando's taps in that sitter we get away with a draw.

I'm not saying we will get 4th but definately can win most of our remaining games if not all.
