Top four is going to be a battle !

If you win tomorrow, coupled with the fixtures you have coming up, I see you staying in the top 7 right into the new year

 

I think you could catch them by the end of the season

 

If we win tomorrow we'll be 2nd in the form table behind Leicester

If Everton then win on Monday, Man Utd will be 8th in the form table

So if things continue as they are I can't see you staying top 7 in the new year

#reality

 

If we win tomorrow we'll only be three points off yourselves with only four league games until the turn of the year...

Liverpool:
WBA (H)
Watford (a)
Leicester (H)
Sunderland (A)

Man Utd:
Bournemouth (A)
Norwich (H)
Stoke (A)
Chelsea (H)


It's entirely possible that we'' be ahead or equal by the turn of the year.

 

Apart from Chelsea, which of those fixtures do you think Man Utd can score a goal in?

 

Form tables eh, gotta love em

 

Can't see them scoring against Chelsea. Bournemouth's goal was the first they've conceded since stoke beat them five games ago.

Both teams are struggling at home. Studge coming back (and hopefully staying fit) will make a big difference for us though.

 

So, going into the new year you expect a top 4 of City, Arsenal Leicester and Spurs then?

 

I think our fixtures are still marginally better. In that sense we should still be ahead even if it is only a difference of 3-5 points. Having said that, it won't matter until about February anyway.

 

Who mentioned scoring

 

With the league the way it is, I expect nothing. If you read my comment again, I said the word "possible"

 

I guess not if you're a Manc desperately clinging to the #delusion that 7 out of 10 games drawn doesn't matter until the moment you inevitably drop out of the top 4, and only then start wondering how you can draw your way back into the CL

 

I think are fixtures our more favourable. Bournemouth are finding some form, Stoke away is never easy and Chelsea have been **** but they are still Chelsea.

Problem for us is the home games.

However, they way this seasons been going, it could go anyway. I was merely pointing out to Diego that it was entirely possible for us to be above you come the new year following is wum attempt with his top seven comment

 

@astroturfnaut nothing matters until the run in. FFS, surely you'd have learned that by now. Trouble with some is they think the top 4, league and everything else is decided by Xmas. You keep your 25 years of #delusion going though

 

Or a scouser ignoring the fact that the "bounce" has not gained you 1 point on any of the top 5 yet

 

What was wum about it do you think you will be out of the top 7 ?

 

Nineteen games in is a good time to judge since everyone as played everyone else one...

Spurs have once again proven today the CL Exclusion Princple

The probability of them #bottlingit increases exponentially as they approach the opportunity to go 4th

Only once in recorded history have they overcome the CLEP, thanks to the incredibly rare event of them quantum mechanically tunnelling to 3rd place, then dropping down to 4th from above

However that outcome is unlikely to repeat itself within the expected lifetime of the universe

The bounce hasn't kicked in yet, see that PDF you posted

 

You'll beat Newcastle but what you said earlier about them I think is more likely against West Brom, (Leicester for obvious reasons), Watford and now Big Sam's Sunderland. The thing about all 4 of those games, is regardless of home or away, they'll be sitting back in two banks of 5. I know we're playing sh1t but tbf the game against Norwich iirc shows you have a similar problem breaking these sorts of defences down.

Ignore Diego, he's a wum
