It also completely takes the pressure off those games for us, if there was any pressure anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turvontour Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 It's difficult to know what are aims are anymore. Do we want to be one of the best teams in Europe, or is 4th to 6th acceptable as a target. I suppose the results dictate a lot of that. It feels fine to me to beat Bournemouth and then only get a point v Arsenal and Man City, but what is the aim? Interesting ten days ahead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna throw a wild thought out but perhaps the aim is to try and win all three? Much the same as the aim would be to win any game…….. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the start of the season, I would have been really happy with 5 or 6th. If we win our next 3 like you say, 5th or 6th would be pretty disappointing.

I think before the season, being as we finished 7th giving loads of teams a 12 game head start with that mug Gerrard then 6th was the minimum, but with a view to push for more.

Keyblade Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 We're fighting with Newcastle and Spurs for that 4th spot. There might even be wiggle room to finish 2nd out of 3 teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
