Given we finished 7th last season I would say finishing above that this season is progress. As you allude to though if we finished, say, 6th this season we'd drop off from our current position. It wouldn’t be a drop off it would be a complete collapse and relegation form. Imagine 6th is 60 points, then if we get relegation form of 1 point a game we will get 60 points from now given we have 42 points with 18 games left. I doubt if we only get 18 points in the next 18 games that this season will be seen as progress because the first half will be forgotten and we have history with that as the season we beat Liverpool 7-2 we were flying until Xmas and then fell away second half and it wasn’t viewed as a good season by many. Feelings tend to lend to towards recent form not sustained periods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

switters Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Arsenal have form for late comebacks so wouldn't rule them out Not too surprised by Spurs, Bournemouth weren't going to keep winning forever. Spurs are going to feel very much back in the mix if these results stay same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be Joint 3rd *at worst* right up until pretty much the end of the Jan Window with a win at Everton. It still obviously is mental for us to consider winning the league. But I thought we'd *also* look out of contention after the Sheffield and Manchester United games 19 minutes ago, Delphinho123 said: Come on Bournemouth.
