Fourth Place

[banditos]

Well we easily got the best result of the top four challengers this weekend.

[gparr]

With all the "Liverpool wont make 4th" "They are so poort" from the media, we are only 4pts of it. If we had held out yesterday, we would have been in the thick of it.

Even though we are playing so poort atm, we are still close to that 4th spot.

Definately..

Beat Spurs midweek and normal service will resume.

Those results and the potential to push on, should be enough motivation for the lads.

Exactly mate everyone is raving about spurs, villa, city etc and while we are having one of our ****test seasons in years we are only four points behind them, if our manager and squad was as **** as the media are making out we would not be this close, with our squad fully fit we would make 4th no problem imo and would be challenging manu for second spot this year.

Tottenham and city have spent more then rafa has had and even in his ****test season with horrendous injuries to cope with we are only four points behind them, if there managers are doing great jobs then rafa cant be doing that bad

[Mattshark]

I really dont think at this point we'll get 4th place this year, regardless of our manager.

Manchester City and Aston Villa are both on better form and both have better squads than us, and arguably better managers (although the jury is still out on Mancini in the premiership i guess)

Villa? You kidding? O'Neill is no way near the standard of Rafa and Villa have 1 point from their last 3 games, we have 7, including a win over Villa.

[ashey]

We'll finish 4th.
Villa can't handle pressure. They're a young side lacking in experience & Martin O'Neil is too volatile. Remember how easy it was for Hansen to wind him up when they were both working for the BBC as pundits for the World Cup 2002?
Also Spurs have no experience at the business end of the season, they'll fold.
City were playing at their maximum until the Blue ****e beat them yesterday & they're only 4 points ahead of us. I've been saying all season I think they're gonna be the Premier League's Holland. They'll play great football but when the pressure's on, they'll implode through ego's & infighting.
There's much more to come from this Liverpool side & we'll start to play well IMO.
We'll finish 4th.

[BJC]

I'm sure this has already been pointed out but our fourth place rivals in
Spurs, Villa, City: drew, drew, lost
against sides lower than Stoke at the beginning of the weekend...

It's not going to take much of a turnaround..... of course we could just keep getting worse...

A few facts:-

We've taken 7 points from our last 3 league games (Wolves, Aston Villa, Stoke)

Stoke have taken points off Spurs and Everton, Chelsea had to score in the 94th minute to beat them, and united struggled against them.

We are playing ****, and Spurs, City and Villa are having great seasons, but we're only 2 points behind villa and 4 points behind city and spurs.

We play spurs on wednesday, if we beat them we are only 1 point behind them.

We were knocked out of the cup by a chmapionship team and its a disaster, yes man utd get knocked out by a league one team and its hardly mentioned??

My opinion:-

Arsenal always finish the season poorly, the can't cope with the pressure, they are 11 points ahead of us at the moment, if we win our remaining games this month I don't think its unrealistic for us to push them for 3rd place.

3rd place 3rd .......lots of if's and buts .....we have shown zero interms of an upturn in form to suggest a 3rd place finish

[joyno]

that's a complete over reaction mate.

because we will definitely finish in the top four this season and your scenario will be redundant, trust Rafa

[Armchairkopite]

We will finish fourth, Rafa will do it hes a winner.

I'm liking your optimisim here, but for us to acheive this - we need to start by taking three points from Harry's boys, and really kicking on from it.

It's not impossible for us to reach 4th - but we need to keep unbeaten and stop giving away silly goals.

BTW, pardon my ignorance here, i didn't see the preview to the Stoke game - but what happened Agger on Saturday? was he injured again?

We will beat Spurs and we will go on a run I'm sure of it.

As for Agger I have no idea myself .

When you walk through a storm
hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark.

Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never walk alone!
