The Race for the Top 4 2017

[BobTheCharmer]

To be honest, the last two seasons we were not even in the neighbourhood of a good league finish.

Yeah but we only had domestic football to worry about this year plus the so called Messiah was supposed to improve our results, we still have the same issues, 18 months in. Top 4 was minimum, to not achieve is a total failure imo.

Anyway, fingers and toes crossed. Be nice if the football god's gave us a break.

[RichC]

It's not total failure if you consider the other teams also aiming for the top 4. Chelsea, Spurs, city, Mancs & Arsenal. It's always going to be tough and we're still in a good position to do so. Mancs & Arsenal still have to play each other and Spurs so there will be points dropped.

I can't see us winning at west ham and watford isn't going to be easy. The ****ing players need to turn up with their game heads on. 5 minutes in and you can tell which Liverpool has arrived.

I can't see us winning either game. Historically they're games we tend to lose.

[RichC]

Watford halve won 1 of the last 8 against us we've won the other 7 and West Ham we're terrible against !

Ah maybe I'm getting confused ha ha! Either way we're poor against at least one of them.

We do have some width but our pack up players are out on loan! Can we and should we be calling back players like Lazar?

Not if we've received a fee for them, which we would have for the likes of Markovic.

Players sent to the lower leagues for development such as Ward or Kent could most likely be recalled, but there would be no value in doing that.

How the **** are we in this position , looking at the table we should of had top 4 tied up weeks ago.

Home losses to Palace and Swansea , drawing with Bournemouth,throwing points away.

The mentality needs to change in these games so badly.

Desperate for Firmino and Coutinho to perform at Watford

[SB]

Thought this was on tonight & it's a public holiday tomorrow so gutted it's not.

[BigChief]

Yep, now I believe top four is over. Doesn't matter about the Spurs or Arsenal games. Is it on Klopp? Yep absolutely. Can see him being a very good manager for us but not one to take us to the next level. Something Arsene Wengerish about him fortunately/unfortunately.

Back in our own hands. We'll finish top four easily.

[Daffy Duck]

If Spurs beat or draw vs Arsenal it's back in our hands... Just have to beat Watford on Monday

Were you under the influence of something a few hours ago?

[RedReet]

Surprise, surprise, United didn't break the habit of a season and go on to win every game. Who could ever have predicted that?
