4th Place

[JackBuddy]

Who do you guys reckon will get it?

If Spurs had Lennon back and a decent penalty taker I woulda said that we would have a good shout. We've won 2 of our 7 games since he has been injured, says alot. We'll get nowhere if Harry opts for Crouch over Pav every game too.

Villa are a good shout but seem to crumble in the latter stages of the season (they're showing signs of that already?). They can't play counter-attacking football every game of the season lol

Liverpool... who knows what they can do... they're different every week.

City... like the other 3 inconsistent and like Spurs they seem to struggle to break down smaller teams sometimes. Plus they don't look as powerful without Tevez... but he'll be back soon.

Aren't UEFA changing the way the CL qualification teams are drawn? So basically if Villa, City or Spurs get 4th spot they'll face a pretty tough team under the new rules... I think. Liverpool will be fine though 'cos they'll be ranked higher than the other three.

When push comes to shove my money is on Liverpool.... depending if Torres can stay fit.

I reckon Liverpool will get it, once they get a win they will go on a good run.
Villa, Tottenham, Manchester City all in my opinion are too inconsistent.

But on paper Villa should get it, as we have the easiest run out of the lot. Only have to play Manchester City & Chelsea left out of the big clubs. The rest of them are very beatable. But then again we have never won a game in march under Martin O'Neil.

So I don't know, this could come down to the last day of the season and goal difference may decided it. As there is only 1 point seperating the contenders and Manchester City and Villa have a game in hand.

If we take 4 or more points away from Chelski and Tottingham, our next two league games, i think we would build up a bit of momentum and grab it.

[JackBuddy]

I just annoys me that:
2 losses to Wolves,
A last minute Stoke winner,
ann unstoppable Hull goalkeeper,
last minute Birmingham equaliser,
last min penalty miss against Everton have all hindered our chances of getting 4th place.
That's about 12 points lost from games that should have been dead and buried.

[CHA!NGANG]

I'd say City or Liverpool. If I'm honest I can't see Spurs or Villa doing it.

Liverpool will need to pick up some form but I can see them doing it and City just aren't clicking at the moment although I hope they beat Chelsea.

I don't think our remaining games are too hard..

I think we could win the majority

Chelsea D
Tottenham Hotspur W
Sunderland W
Fulham W
Wigan Athletic W
Burnley W
Birmingham City W
Manchester United L
Arsenal D
Aston Villa W
West Ham United W

That's what i think City are capable of, killed me to put Loss next to United but if we continue to play how we are they will overturn us.

Hm, think some of those are slighlty optimistic! Fulham and Burnley could be difficult (if they're away).

Man City v Villa, would be a crucial game for either team

That's what we are capable of, although we will probably crumble and just draw every game with that italian turd playing 4 - 5 - 1 every game and demanding we put a longball up for ade every minute of the game.

Villa always score from set pieces.

The safe money is on City.
