4th lads

[meagher94]

1 loss from 6 extremely difficult matches. A bit optimistic imho.

3 at home though. Liverpool and Tottenham away are difficult but it's not unreasonable to expect a point imo.

stoke away will be tough, i know they have shipped in 9 goals in 2 games but that makes me think they will be all the more desperate to put in a performance against us.

Pulis is gone. The defensive fortress has fallen. Nothing to fear, my dear potato.

Not really. As these are our results from the opposite fixtures, one loss, and we had Utd, City and Arsenal away.

spurs home DRAW
liverpool home DRAW
man city away LOSS
man utd away WIN
chelsea home WIN
arsenal away DRAW

 

[Zatara]

yep how many points you think we will need from

spurs away 3
liverpool away 3
man city home 1
man utd home 1
chelsea away 1
arsenal home

9pts I think, any more than that and I'd be very happy.

VITAL we win that game. Shades of Palace/Sunderland this one....

IMO if we´re serious about a push for 4th we need to win against Stoke. The slip up against Sunderland has to be made up for.

Somewhere in a forum far far away, other teams are looking at their fixtures going FFS Everton away.

Look where we have slipped up: Palace, WBA, Norwich, Cardiff and Sunderland.

Stuff like this will bite us in the arse in May lads - it's kopite behaviour celebrating being in the top 4 on New Years Day

First three games of the season before we had the players in and a settled style. Palace away was just a drab game and we played 65 minutes with 10 men against Sunderland.

We're more clinical, resolute and focussed in nearly every match than we used to be. I don't think we'll drop many silly points. As Roberto said, when we have dropped points we've been very unfortunate rather than outplayed.

the top few teams are going to continue to take points off each other in this league

the likes of Southampton and Spurs might also do us a few favours.

Keep the faith

16/1 best odds for us to win the Cup worth a sneaky £100 i reckon.
