If we have any ideas of the winning the title, winning every game is pretty much what is required now.Unrealistic obviously, but that is the position we find ourselves in.If top 4 is the goal then we're good for that. Shockingly.

I don't think it's going to be that easy to get top 4 this year.
Don't we hear that every year?
I don't think this year will be much different. We're better than Spurs, Utd, City at the very least.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
First time we've had 5 rivals teams capable of finishing in the top 4 with the team and managers capable of finishing there. In fact, 5 teams that all should be expected to finish in the Top 4.
My thinking too. I honestly don't think we're any better than any of the other top 5 sides and that includes United. It's going to be a fascinating battle this year...no idea outside of Chelsea and at a push Liverpool who will finish inside top 4.Originally Posted by Power_n_Glory
I think we'll certainly do enough to finish at least 4th, but I don't think there is a huge difference in quality between the top 6.
We will finish in the top 4.
If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.
Win 70 points and that usually gets you a Top 4 finish. We average that every season but for the first time we're looking at 5 other teams hitting that mark. 19/20 games played already this season and Chelsea are on 49 points, Liverpool 44, City 42, Utd and Spurs 39.
This time last year after 20 games we were on 42 points and top of the league. Chelsea were nowhere to be found near the bottom, Utd were on 33 and City 39.
We're gonna need a serious drop off in form from one or two teams to survive the Top 4. We can't afford to bottle it like last year. Finish on 71 points again and we could be in serious trouble. We still have hopes of winning the league but we're going to need our best end score tally for this year to be sure. 80+ plus just to be sure.
If we are not challenging for the title, I dont care if we are 2nd or 17th.
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
I'll come back to you about that when we finish 17th one year...
Agree with PnG that it will be a scrap this year, there are a lot of good sides around. But I think we'll finish top 4, say what you like about Wenger, he knows how to do that. And those saying they don't care about that would soon be whining their tits off if we did slip into mid-table.
