Top four finish?

[Everlasting Seconds]

Results of collective opposition:
Arsenal: 47-41-44

Leicester: 56-33-43

City: 49-41-42

Spurs: 50-33-49

United: 49-32-51

Don't care about West Ham.

These numbers clearly show that we have opposition coming up over the next weeks, and so do the other teams.
It is evident that teams may both win, draw, and loose.
Some win more, some loose more.
The football really is round.
Marvellous.


Edit: I forgot to mention that it is evident that Arsenal has been given the advantage in the fixture list.
They will face 6 teams in the same period as we face 6 teams. All we can do is try to win matches, stats show that it is better than not trying to win matches.

It's a good point but IMO 3 of those are not playing due to lack of form and other isn't playing due to lack of fitness so I'm not convinced that there will be much impact. But there is still time for them to up their game in cups and they are not the only squad members

Yeah I agree, I mean all of them when on form do add something different. I think if we realistically want to keep our place in the top4 we need to integrate them and so if the time comes where the baton needs to be handed over they can smash it. Personally I wouldn't mind seeing Son or Chadli starting just because they can put the ball in the net.

I find that quite remarkable - all those totals are 132 points, if I'm not mistaken. Good point!

So silly of me, I must be mistaken, but I think you meant to write 132 matches .

Norwich defensively today! Wow.

That is a game I expect us to win but any sort of complacency will probably see us slip up. Kind of glad its FA Cup next because I could see us turning up and just expecting to beat Norwich had it been next Saturday.

But we must be looking at 6 points from the next two and then its the big one at City.

hopefully Poch will rest enough and not have to use any starters v Colchester, then least we play Norwich with same amount of rested players

Win the next three and we'll be there or there abouts at the top.

If we had beaten Leicester (as we should have) we would be top now.

If we had beaten Leicester (as we should have) we would be top now.

But we didn't so best to forget it. Good result from them today but poor from Stoke who obviously had one eye on their semi-final on Tuesday. We'll still finish ahead of them. We have two games coming up that I can't see being anything other than wins for us - Norwich and Swansea (Edit: I meant Watford of course!) both look likely relegation candidates, so hopefully we won't be far off top when we play City. A Chelsea win tomorrow would be a nice bonus.

and don't get me started on that bloody newcastle game !

My mistake - I've had that game chalked up as a win for so long I kind of forgot about it!

 

[Qualsonic]

We're as close to first as we are to fifth

Genuine question, what do these numbers mean? I genuinely don't have a clue what they represent.
That said we are now sitting five points clear of the pack , dare I say it's beginning to look comfortable.
