We need Arsenal to lose it, us to run into no problems and to make instant impact signings now, so yes we can.

How were we doing at this stage 2 years ago? I'm worried my mid-term memory is shot to bits, I honestly can't remember if there was similar talk to now.

Points wise we're ahead of where we were.

We've dropped to 22/1 which is the shortest I've seen us.

Man City are 6/1 and Arsenal are 1/4.

Game 22 we lost and dropped to 5th on 43 points. Game 18 -24 was a bad patch where we only picked up 8pts in 7 games.

Makes the last game of the season at C115y away more interesing as each week goes by.  It almost certiantly won't be a title decider, but that extra couple of million in finishing 2nd rahter than 3rd is helpful.

We had already shot our bolt.

The Sheffield United draw made us uneasy. The defeat at Old Trafford knocked the stuffing out of us. We brought kids on that night, as injuries piled up. And that was before the turn of the year. We were about to be turfed out of the cup by Chelsea, then embarrassed at home by the Jaudis. We spent the rest of the year with our foot on Spurs’ neck, trying to make sure they drowned.

Yeah, if Pep's already lost the title a few weeks beforehand, makes it more likely that they'll give us a guard of honour.

To me - its just take it game by game.  If were still in the running when we move into April then maybe. 

We're at a distinct disadvantage due to our smaller squad and not being able to spend.  But if we just take it game by game - who knows.  The longer its a possibility the more likely we are to get CL football which is a step closer to us being able to compete on a level playing field

Newcastle away is a big test as they're right bastards at home. I can see Arsenal dropping points against either Yanited or Leeds.

Win against Everton and it becomes very interesting.
League games are whittling down, and we are still hanging on in there.

We need to get through the next couple of weeks and get Onana (at least) back, and If we can land a forward who can score in the transfer window, it’s very exciting.

In the words of local pop warbler Steve Winwood, "When you see a chance take it".

In the words of George Michael, 'You gotta have faith, faith, faith.'
