Rightly or wrongly I don't expect West Ham to make top 4, I think it will be us or United or

Arsenal don't have any cup games and Utd have a massive squad.
The Spam are still in Europe and the FA Cup. Some of their players have played a lot of football.
Rice and Antonio's international commitments could also complicate things for them.

Arsenal and right now we are the outsiders of those three.

I agree and West Ham are more prone to surprise defeats then any of the other sides albeit they are probably the best of the four in H2H vs City/LFC/Chelsea.

One weird thing about Spurs is that we have an amazing historical record of being mid-table yet winning cups. We've been outside the top 4 in the League for 7 of our last 8 Cup wins. That's actually very unusual and I don't think it was the result of any sort of strategy. League position is usually a very good indicator of probability of winning cups but our cup wins have dried up during our best ever run of high league finishes.

Probably because we discovered it is damn hard to compete on 4 fronts without almost unlimited resources.

Also the domestic cups are taken way more seriously by the wealthier clubs than before - almost used as leverage if they don't win either the league or CL.

City have won 6 of the last 8 League Cups and the other two went to Chelsea and Utd.
Clearly down to Pep's genius.
That or having a million players and almost unlimited money. One or the other.
