if im honest fourth was gone a long time ago, and its only because of recent defeats suffered by spurs and city that have given us false hope.
The simple truth is we havent been good enough to get back into the champions league and that's it.
Whether we the point the finger at the owners, rafa or the players at the end of the day we just have been pretty **** all season and we dont deserve it.

we have gone from 2nd to 7th,6th or 5th [depending on were we finish this season] with roughly the same players minus Alonso and Arbeloa ......this season there has been no passion/commitment or desire from the players and some of the football has been rubbish ......only on a handfull of games have we shown last seasons formComment

Rafa says he needs 60m.
Personally I think hehas already spend over 200million and apart from Torres and Reina and Mascherano what does he have to show for it?
I he has spent too much money on mid range speculations that have not come off.
The only reason why missing fourth place is possitv is because he will hopefully resign as a result.Jacques Brel is alive and well and playing at AnfieldComment

man city are 6 points ahead with a game in hand.
Their remaining 5 fixtures are as follows:
Saturday, 17 April 2010
Barclays Premier League
Man City v Man Utd, 12:45
Saturday, 24 April 2010
Barclays Premier League
Arsenal v Man City, 17:30
Saturday, 1 May 2010
Barclays Premier League
Man City v Aston Villa, 15:00
Wednesday, 5 May 2010
Barclays Premier League
Man City v Tottenham, 20:00
Sunday, 9 May 2010
Barclays Premier League
West Ham v Man City, 15:00
From these games they need a maximum of 7 points to mathematically get us out of the race.
Of the 5 you would only say that west ham is winable, the rest could easily go against them.
Spurs also have a very difficult run in and we just have to keep going. Stanger things have happened and although nearly impossible its still on.
Whether we have the balls to go out and win all our remaining games is another matter and if Torres is out for the rest of the season then unless rafa changes the system and goes all out for the wins then its not going to matter.[B]Sir Isaac Newton knew the universal law of karma - any action has its equal and opposite reaction.[B]Comment

The manc derby could go either way and i wouldnt be surprised if City won it if Rooney's out. They'll beat both Villa and Spurs at home, and probably get a win at WHU.
Realistically, 6 points will do it for them.Comment

I like your optimism, but I don't share it at all and tbh. we won't get the necessary points ourselves, so city will most likely need less than 7 points in those games. Their real challenge right now is tottenham.Originally posted by el matador View Post
I don't see us finishing higher than 6th or 7th and tbh.Comment

unless rafa lets go of his defensive thoughts we wont be anywhere near winning 12 points.Originally posted by Darkon View Post
Tottenham have an equally difficult run in and although its still there to be had, i cant see us doing anything this year. If we finish 5th it will be a miracle.[B]Sir Isaac Newton knew the universal law of karma - any action has its equal and opposite reaction.[B]Comment

He didn't do much of this last year either. He scored goals but none of the long rangers he used to. He was scoring the goals that a real link player, playing off of Torres should/would have been getting. Thus leaving Gerrard to play centrally getting in tackles and being able to influence games.Originally posted by kris90210 View Post
When he plays so far forwards he's always on the edge of the game. He can't influence or change the tempo. I think he must be carrying an injury to some extent. I personally hate seeing the player he is now. I much preferred the aggressive, tackles flying, long range shooting player of old. Perhaps his body has tired of this and he can only play the forward role?
Who knows. If he's still **** next year then we'll have a better idea.Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won’t expect it back. Oscar WildeComment
