omariqy Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 I don’t think it’s an issue to believe we won’t catch Liverpool who are 8 points ahead of us. Yes they are struggling but it’s Liverpool, they are more than likely going to turn it around and win at least 3 out of 4 games. We just need to concentrate on our job starting with Chelsea. Win the next two and top 4 is sewn up imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mic09 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 What we have to remember is that we are no longer aiming to compete for places between 12-7th. In those places, a swing of 5 positions with 4 games to go is very possible. We are talking about overtaking teams who lose 5-6 games all season. Liverpool lost 4. We are 99% not overtaking them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. People don't seem to realise how hard gaps like that are to overturn at this end of the table. You can't just string a few wins together and reel teams in, unless they completely collapse. Which is rare. We're basically to liverpool what Man Utd were to us a couple of months ago. The swing in form required to overhaul an 8 point gap is huge with 10-12 games left. With 4 games left it's virtually impossible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinker Posted April 25 VT Supporter Share Posted April 25 Lets just see how west ham get on against lpool Saturday. I watched the Liverpool, Everton game and Liverpool had some chances but Everton outplayed them, wanted it more all over the pitch. LPools heads dropped. West Ham is not the place to go to with a poor attitude. Then they play spurs at home, I so hope I'm wrong and they beat Spurs but watching them. It going to be close. I'm not saying its going to happen I'm saying it could happen, saying it's not going to happen is just......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 4 games left it's virtually impossible I'd say it's more likely for Luton to finish 15th and overtake Brentford. But that's for another topic.

VillaChris Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Must admit I thought Liverpool were only on 71 points so thought we were right on their tails. Yeah 8 point gap is too much. It's a bit like trying to catch Newcastle last season when they had a dip in form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Back on topic, any news on Palmer or Gusto? I think Udogie will be a massive miss for Spurs. They can't play the same way without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
