Race for the Top 4 - 2018/19

[slartibartfast]

Liverpool look f*cked matip now out for 6 weeks. Trent and clyne injured. Gomez 6 weeks. Lovren just coming back. Vvd and Robertson played every game.

If only there was a transfer window about to open.
Oh, wait...

Ragnar Klavan 2.0

Ragnar Klavan 2.0

Eh?

 

[dtxspurs]

Eh?

When liverpool bought him for defensive depth in 2016. Thought it was the winter window but turns out it was in the summer.

 

[newbie]

Wow, hitting the festive period is the last time you want new injury concerns.

Bound to see fatigue and more injuries now. Fixtures coming thick and fast will take its toll.

Loose VvD and they will be a very different team.

What's Ryan Nelsen up to these days?

Oh, wait...

X5 PL games till it opens and they have United arsenal and city. Their title challenge could be over 1st week January.

I just hope we don’t under estimate Burnley after Tuesday night. It would be so like THFC to have a poor result after the euphoria of Tuesday.

Of old.

He's waiting along with Louis Saha for a call from Levy

 

[Mr Pink]

Of old.

Agreed but it is a potential ? skin.

They'll sit deep and make it tough. Did they grind out a 1-1 at Wembley last season... Wood scored late on?

I don't think they're quite as good last season, so providing we're focused it should be a routine win.

Two big games coming up after Burnley so not expecting a thrashing.

 

[spursfan77]

With any luck.

Yeah they did. But you have to take into account that we were still feeling out Wembley and lost our game management in the last ten with Trippier caught upfield. Show a bit more cleverness and we'll win.

Also they’ve got Hart in goal, so any decent shots from 20 yards to his weak left-hand side should go in.

To tell the truth, I haven’t really seen them this season to know if they are the same side as this year.

All I know is that this weekend is a fabulous opportunity to pick up points on Man City and Liverpool as they have relatively tricky fixtures for once.

Burnley aren't the same this year, even Palace scored two past them. They're still blocking shots galore but they're conceding a lot more shot attempts and a lot more goals. Nowhere near as solid as last season and I really think they might go down if they don't sort it out.

 

[coys200]

Trent now out for 2-3 weeks. So they are down to lovren Vvd Robertson Moreno as out and out defenders. Guess likes of Milner Fabinho can fill in.

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

I think we are in the race.

 

[JCRD]

I think we are in the race.

We are, given the next few games and whilst no games are a given if we want to be in the race then these are must win games.

We can't complain about these set of games.
