Jareth Posted September 30, 2023 Author Share Posted September 30, 2023 We have had nearly 12 months to weigh this up. Nobody can do a Citeh - without cooking the books, but we CAN do 2 points per game - we beat City ( wolves did) then why the fook not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, I don't think it's a coincidence that they lost two matches today without Rodri. He makes the side run. If something happens to him, they will be vulnerable.

Sulberto21 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 On a serious note if Mings and Buendia weren’t injured then I’d be confident of finishing in the top 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srsmithusa Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 currently 5th. playing 13 this weekend. 4th and 6 playing each other, so the opportunity to move up is real. Winning the league is a bridge to far this season IMO, (we need more consistency and more depth) but top 4 would suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted October 2, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted October 2, 2023 (edited) Tottenham being talked about as title contenders after being gifted a victory at home to Liverpool to take them two points above us. If them, why not us? Finished higher last season and we've strengthened (but then had major injury setbacks) while they've weakened, manager aside (yet to be really seen though).

Spurs will lose Son, Bissouma and Sarr for a whole month in January. Maddison is made of glass, I'd be surprised if he stays fit. The new manager bounce honeymoon might not last for ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Not quite time for us to start singing "Win the League" again, just yet in my opinion...perhaps after Christmas. At least if we just miss out on the title this time, we will have the consolation of Champions League football next season (as well as having won the conference league, of course). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've also had the tougher games IMO. And had to play three more competitive fixtures in the same time. And had bad luck in our toughest games while they appear to have had a fair amount of luck in their most difficult fixtures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We probably won't be able to challenge for the top four over the course of the season nevermind the title. Win the conference league and finish in the top 6 will be a great season.

Well yes, neither is probably the most sensible approach. But you can’t have one and not the other is my point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdulaziz1 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Key here is to keep looking up and take the opportunity when it comes, now we should think only of Mostar, finish that and then think of Wolves, with a hope of win and also good circumstances to make us second (with a point to 1st). Then go to the break and again think of West Ham to end our record against them and hope to get 1st that week. What I hate is looking at 5 games and start seeing what’s possible or not, just take it game by game and see where it takes us to. I’m more confident with Ramsey back. Hopefully Moreno as well, he’ll be important against teams that defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
