I am struggling to understand how we are equal 3rd.
We are not playing that well, we seem to be scraping results and giving the opposition lots of opportunities which fortunately they are not taking or because of Martinez magnificence at times.
I think our summer transfer business will be our major setback, Elliot Guessand and Sancho ffs.
Agree with this, Elliot is turning into Lord Lucan, Guessand is out of his depth in this league and Sancho has the body language of put In the odd half arsed cameo, take the £160 K a week and bugger off at the end of the season. Shocking business.

I don't understand, why Unai doesn't give Elliott a chance and to put George Hemmings on the bench instead of him against Leeds, was an insult.

Honestly?  No, I don't think we will.  If we get in to the Champions League again this season it'll be a huge achievement.

If this is still possible on 18th May it might be worth revisiting.  But not before.

It really wasn't. Look at who else was on the bench, the 'gap' created by Onana being out and Bogarde not being fully fit meant we needed another option who could come in as injury cover as a 6 if we needed someone on for more than the 5-6 minutes Bogarde got.

I don't think we can but top 6 v v achievable. V solid goalkeeper, defence and midfield. Just a bit light up front but I still think once Olliengets one he will be back to his best.

No doubt people thought that would be the case when he scored his only goal abiht two months ago.

Can we get this merged with the Champions League one, please?

I abhor all this jinxing.

I will never not agree with this.

I couldn't not agree less.

If we're still in the top four after the festive season I'll start to believe anything is possible. The PL are doing their utmost to give certain clubs a boost.  While we have to travel to London twice in three days Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and Man Yoo all have two home games.

That’s just the luck of the draw. If the fixtures were fixed then the Premier League wanted us to be top after a couple of months.

We’ve just stumbled to a 1-0 win against a comically inept Wolves side. So no.

Also, this is the type of thread that gives credence to our neighbours’ claims of us being arrogant and having ideas above our station.

I can't envisage anything going wrong ever again. Absolutely nailed on.

As for our neighbours, they think they're in line for global domination despite not having won a PL game in getting on 15 years. Imagine what they'd be like if they were as good as us.
