Shouldn't we all be talking about the race for 1st, or at least 3rd rather than 4th?
Noooooooo that will jinx it mg:

One step at a time, my East-Asian bredrin.
Basically this, so shut up about the thread title.
Man Utd won the title last year with 80 points!
If we got 88 points and finished 3rd, I'm not sure how I would feel!
However threads with "other" titles are available...:wink:
I thought Liverpool were at best "average" tonight. NOT going to end up in the top 4.
In my opinion all top 6 clubs will win this weekend. Still good for us.
I would reserve my opinions on Pool until Suarez finishes his 8-game ban and we see what they do in January.
In fairness to them, if they scored the four penalties they've missed so far they'd be in the top four by now. With Gerrard they may finally start scoring against the crap teams.
In general I think they're too workmanlike to make it, but who knows, it's a long time between now and April.

In fairness to us, if we had a sober referee at Stoke we might be 3 points better off :grin:
I thought Liverpool were quite poor tonight, Gerrard lifted them but they still look well short of a top 4 side at the moment. A lot of huff and puff without any real quality, they were gifted that tonight.
They'll finish 6th all day long for me.
Conversely you could say that we robbed Fulham, and going by that performance we'd never even make top 6, much less top 3. And if we had one half against Stoke - well, they had the other.
I'm not going to think about placements until March or so, well after the Jan window is over. It's easy for any team to go on a losing or winning run for whatever reason, and we might still face long injuries to Adebayor and Bale. Eek
Luck with injuries will play a pretty big role this season imo. United have coped very well, but we've yet to see Chelsea without Sturridge/Mata, Arse without RvP, and us without Adebayor...
SP, be gentle with the noobs! Play nice :wink:
Oh, and I don't see Sunderland pushing Citeh, they are toothless up front and I expect Citeh to score.
So 1 man team Pool have Gerrard back again and will now no doubt think they will storm up the table, what a silly bunch they are :roll:
As for this weekends games not expecting any of City, Arse, Manure or Chelsea to drop points so its another big game for us.
