Agreed (I think). We won't finish above Arsenal this season. I'd love to see it, but my head tells me that it isn't happening.

No we need to realise that we haven't achieved fuck all yet and there is a long way to go. We are in a good position but not there yet. After the embarassment of the mind the gap from some of our fans i just don't want us to get too excited as i still get grief about it today even though i never said it.

So right. Someone just needs to go in a big winning run, 6 or 7 games, really go for it. Can't see us doing that but if we did.....
Yes but considering how we did not win any of our first 4 matches, we have done really well to be in 4th now.

Not impossible - they have harder away fixtures 2nd half of the season.
The real goal is to catch Leicester and put themselves between us and United.

Having only gotten 4/9 points so far this month, I really feel we need 9/9 from the next three games, to solidify our place in the top four. They are all games that we would be expected to win (Palace, Norwich, Watford), and are followed by a potentially tough few weeks:
Man City
Fiorentina (midweek)
FA Cup 5th Round (if we qualify)
Fiorentina (midweek)
Swansea (potentially tricky after EL)
West Ham (midweek)
Arsenal
We then have Liverpool, Man Utd and Chelsea to look forward to in April, so it would be nice to have a cushion between us and 5th.

Last 6 matches form table from Sporting Life surprised me.
Maybe we haven't been closer for decades.

Interestingly enough, that's only part of the truth. It's pretty shit, but with more words, when results are bad.

Leicester, I feel will start to realise the difficulty of teams parking the bus, or at least setting up to defend against them. They've been fantastic but I think from here on in, with teams wary of their attacking threat, they're going struggle.
They've allowed teams the ball and have set up to counter attack. It's going to be interesting now, with teams, even as shit as Villa being aware that they can't attack them too gung ho and Leicester now will struggle to break teams down.
That Villa result wasn't a fluke either... Think this may be the beginning of seeing Leicester being figured out. They haven't been good value for a win for a few games now.

Man Utd won and it seems to have spread doom and gloom because they are still only two points below us but think about it, a month ago we were neck and neck with Liverpool, Palace and West Ham and behind Utd.,
As it stands Liverpool and Palace are gone as serious contenders, West Ham look unlikely and United ar below us, I understand the ifs buts and maybes but it seems like the pressure is getting to some of us, come on guys this is the fun part, enjoy it.
