Is it safe to say that next seasons top 4 is already sorted

May seem a bit of an early shout but if Arsenal get Higuian, to me that would all but seal a top 3 of City, UTD An the Chavs...followed by Arsenal.

Leaving a race for the Europa for Us the Redshyte and Spurs, grouped with a couple of surprise packages.

You can never say for sure but I think your about right there.

Nah - SPurs keep Bale and I add a few I reckon they could do it.

Can't see Levy backing without selling his is to tight, certainly couldn't see a summer window with them spending say 50mill and only recouping any money by flogging squad players like huddlestone.

Although Arsenal may force there hand.

When you put it like that,it's not saying much for the so called best league in the world,but you are right IMO

Higuain could end up being a big flop that doesn't like rough tough CB's.

Arsenal are more than one signing away from being a proper force, and any player can get injured (Rodrigo) or simply not adapt to London life (Arshavin). I firmly believe Spurs will dump Adebayor and bring Benteke in for big money, it also seems they want rid of Defoe (QPR for a reunion with 'Arry).

I'd say that Spurs, Everton and Liverpool will be able to push for the 4th spot if we sign a couple of decent players.
It certainly seems more open than previously to me.

Problem with Everton is that we will deffo have to take one step back to go forward which is fine as long as we go forward which would mean Martinez will have to nail his signings

Seeing as the other teams are strengthening and we will probably have to make do with a few bargain basement types I can't see us getting anywhere near top 4.

Jags..class · June 21, 2013

we need one of those teams to have a bad season or bad signings. No way will we get 4th, sorry for being a miserable sod. But we can fight for a spot in Europe tho.

electricblue · June 22, 2013

Not it's not. Stranger things have happened.

But unless we get our finger out soon in terms of strengthening we could get seriously left behind.

Mirallas though lads.

Why do we have to go backwards to go forwards?
Whats wrong with just gong forwards?
