Can't say it interests me - us finishing 5th and them 6th could be massively damaging to Arsenal, I would happily settle for us finishing 4th and them 3rd

Yep. However should the opportunity arise I think we should go for the jugular as far as that is concerned. What is of higher priority though, is taking and consolidating 4th.
 
Good to see some optimism back on your board <ok>

3rd isn't out of the question for you guys but you have to show you're truly out of your own mini crisis by winning a few games back to back first.

youve been waiting for an opportunity? and there i was thinking you cant get to 3rd because your not good enough.
 
To be honest, if we beat you this week you need to looking behind you as you will be the hunted.

I agree that we need to be putting a run of wins together before we can start talking about 3rd. I think we're good enough for 4th this season. It remains to be seen how the England affair affects Spurs. Even if Harry doesn't go, I think the whole thing is going to be hugely unsettling for them.
 
I think we really have become like the spuds, fretting over finshing 3rd/4th! We used to be challenging for honours at this stage of the season!
 
We are challenging for honours. In both the FA cup and Champions League.

We however have more of a realistic chance of winning the FA Cup, hence my question. I am not suggesting we "throw" the Champions League....... Or give up our chase for the Premier League :D or quest for 3rd/4th place. I just think we should focus our efforts on winning the FA Cup.
 
So if you were give the offer of one win each against Sunderland would you takea win in the league or a win in the cup

We would take the cup as we still think we have to much to do the get 5th or 6th.

I would take the win in the cup as well..... losing to you guys in the league should not kill our champion league ambitions..... we lost 3 games on the bounce and we are still with a shout!

Funny coming from a Sp*rs supporter. How many years have you not been good enough?

Well this is the first time in 20 years that they've reached 3rd place. This is the equivalent of winning the CL for them - hence they think we're all bitter.
 
We dont all think your bitter...but this thread is a little desperate ....and arrogant...hoping we are unsettled so you can grab 3rd....
I thought you were 6th ... BEHIND chelsea and newcastle and only a pt ahead of liverpool.
Who says they will roll over even if we do?
You mashed blackburn but only got 1 pt in your previous 4 matches....think this all sounds a bit like wishful thinking.

These spuds cretin are every where! You cannot even have a decent conversation, without them turning up like a bad penny to spoil it! Enjoy your season, as someone already said, making top4 for you guys is like winning the world cup and the CL at the same time!

Under normal circumstances, 3rd place for us would be a failure, hence why this particular season is so unusual. I guess it really is all a matter of perspective. Spuds success = our failure.
