    1. Citeh
    2/3. Spurs / Man Utd
    3/4. Man Utd / Poool

    Chelsky are now in their PL/CL fixture set
    of hell, and I doubt they will survive it (their
    hopes of PL top 4 could be shattered) .

    thats it is very hard to actually say spurs will lose this game or that game or even cheslea

    The first time i did it i got lfc 5th and the second time lfc 3rd.

    I think spurs have a far easier run in than cheslea.

    From here one thing thats for 100% sure theres no room at all for a loss of form and a 3 game blip or you will be out of the top 4.

    chesle have had their and are hanging on in there they dropped 10 points in 15 before last win and that dropped them form fighting utd for 2nd to fighting for 4th

    The form table is interesting

    Utd: WWWLWL = 12 points = 2 points per game
    LFC: WWLWDW = 13 points =2.16 ppg
    Cheslea DDWLLW = 8 points = 1.3 ppg
    Spurs DWDWWD = 12 points = 2ppg

    It seems to me 3 point could well cover 2nd to 5th and dropping below 2 points per game (lose 2 in a row for example) and you are not going to catch back up without beating a rival directly

    Getting a result in our pocket this weekend would be great.

    Utd and chelsea drawing and us winning = a 3 point gap with 4 GD better than cheslea.

    Spurs draw... and we win... 4 points gap. thats a big deal right now.

    It's all very interesting because there are so many permutations.
    It's just great to be in the mix - pity that City are so far out of reach.

    Yeah that run of 4 or 5 games they just won late on made their winning streak that much longer that its just not possible. If they'd drawn a few of those we could be looking at city being caught here by someone. 16 points gap v an 8 point gap is a world of difference at this poiint

    The premiership looks tougher since Fergie retired. No one to bully referees anymore.

    Yo know what I mean you awkward bugger, do you think refs have started treating them fairly?

    In my somewhat negative approach (according to some) I get:

    1st - Man City 103 points
    2nd - Man Utd 86 points
    3rd - Tottenham 81 points
    4th - Liverpool 76 points
    5th - Chavs 76 points
    6th - Arsenal 68 points

    Spurs outperforming us by 0.64 points/game for the rest of the season isn't "somewhat negative" it's insane <yikes>

    With Arsenal most likely to miss out on top 4, we really need another rival to start
    falling away. We don’t wanna be in a position where we go to Chelsea needing a win on the second to last game of the season.

    Given how strongly Spurs have finished the
    last half of the past two seasons, tis neither
    negative nor insane but actually quite
    measured (though I doubt Spurs will finish
    on 81 pts) .

    It really is tight and those top 6 mini league games are likely to be the deciding factor.

    Over 11 games we win 7 points fewer than Spurs and 8 fewer than Utd?
    I'd call that a very negative outlook.

    IF not for Kane diving we should be 5 points ahead of Tottenham now.

    Spurs are a failed project. If it weren't for diving they'd be struggling for top 8.

    When it comes to diving, I would call Spurs
    a wannabee Poool 2013-14.

    Gareth Bale still leads the diving charts despite not having played here for 5 years. Delli Alli is hoping to take over the reigns
