Geogaddi Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) We won't get 12 points from them next 4 games however favourable they look, that would make it 9 league wins in a row and that's basically impossible unless you are peak Man City or Liverpool, 9/10 would be a good return and likely have us sitting nicely in the top 4.

astraguy Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 People are getting way to comfortable here after 5 wins, Our second half performances still worry me and an injury to isak i'd be happy with top 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that’s Europa proper I think that’s the minimum needed to be honest. I wouldn’t take 6th or 7th now because 5th and CL is absolutely there for the taking given the inconsistently of teams around us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve got 3 homes games against Wolves, Bournemouth and Fulham and an away to Southampton. It’s a great opportunity to put ourselves in a solid position heading into the last 3rd of the season, nothing more, nothing less. Let’s see where we are after the 4 games.

TRon Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 4 minutes ago, Karjala said: Surely everyone would settle for a top 7 finish and European qualification? If Man U and Spurs weren't so far behind us, I would agree. Their poor season so far has meant that teams like Brentford and Forest are up there in UEFA spots, and I'd be majorly disappointed if we don't finish ahead of them. Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Man City are the teams I think we should consider out of our league squad wise. Fifth is definitely up for grabs, and which team is in a better position than us to take it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomYam Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 If we can amass 10 points over the following 4 fixtures - and we should, injuries notwithstanding - then we'd expect to finish no lower than 5th. The team just needs to be focussed and truly believe - and there's no reason why not because we did just that in 2023. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erikse Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) 56 minutes ago, Karjala said: Surely everyone would settle for a top 7 finish and European qualification? Probably yes, but if Tottenham and Man Utd don't get their act together, we'll be competing with 4 cartel clubs and Forest + Villa (with way more games than us). Depends on Citys form aswell, ofcourse, in the best case scenario even they might not be up there. There will allways be 1 or 2 top clubs struggling, but this season has been quite crazy with 3 top clubs in some sort of crisis and with teams like Bournemouth and Forest doing very well. Strange season, but I like it so far. Edited January 5 by Erikse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) 21 minutes ago, Karjala said: Surely everyone would settle for a top 7 finish and European qualification? Hell no. CL was always the target for me in a year without the distraction and extra workload of European football. We need CL to continue to progress as a club.

Holloway Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 5th is looking very likely a CL spot and we are favourably poised for a right go at it. I'd be a bit disappointed with anything lower tbh the way the season is panning out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I actually think the Bournemouth home game is the hardest out of the last few and upcoming games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 1. Liverpool 2. Arsenal 3. NUFC 4. Man City 5. Chelsea 6. Forest That's my prediction Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from Southampton, every game looks like a tricky one where we could easily drop points if we are not on it, we cannot take anything for granted, and I’m sure Eddie will drumming that into the players. I guess that’s the Premier League for you, every game is a hard one (except Southampton). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
t00nt00n313 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) One think that I will say is that we have some tough away games in the second half of the season. City away, Villa away, Brighton away (we never win against Brighton away), Liverpool away, and arsenal away. That's 5 games right there I genuinely can't see us winning.

This is just silly talk. Do you think there is a less of a chance to get heads in a coinflip if you already have gotten 5 in a row previously aswell?

We probably won’t get 12 because it’s hard to win four in a row but it has nothing to do with the five previous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 It's obviously tight, but being 5 points off 2nd is fantastic like. Makes Brighton, Everton and West Ham even more frustrating but I'm chuffed we seem to have really turned a corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
