    Thats what i said to spud mate who has us down to lose 2-1 today. Told him we always find a way to do it.

    It's out of our hands now.

    I don't even know what to say, we've gone from title contenders to potential 5th place/dropping out of CL.

    We'll get it, not because we are better than Everton, but they still got United and City to play. We on the other hand, have a cupcake schedule, all our games are against teams that really have nothing to play for, other than maybe Norwich on the last day.

    Still thing we'll get 4th, we barely deserve it based on our performances in the big games this season though, not really convinced there's been that much progress anymore this season, the attack has been poor and the defence has selectively fallen apart in some games.

    Mate. That is very restrained. Over the season there is, simply put, no evidence of progress. An illusion of progress? - Yes, at times. But with our defence now reverting to type - I can't see anything that constitutes real progress.

    West Brom will be tough too. They're in the relegation scrap too. But yes, we have an easier schedule.

    It's very disappointing. Even up to 5 games ago we were right in the mix of the title race but 13 points in 11 games at the business end is pathetic.
    The defence has looked a lot better this year, we've got results in games where last year we were dropping points, but the capitulations away against the top 5 have been disgraceful and from a genuine title contender we're now scrapping around to stay in the top 4. I have a feeling we will do it but by now it should be way beyond doubt.

    Only the FA Cup win would save this season now.

    Mate. Your post does you credit. But IMHO the FA Cup will buy a modicum more patience. Nothing more.
