BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Carling Cup is basically our's. We'll get past Everton, I reckon Arsenal will do the Jews and eventually we will beat them in final. We will have Didier and Essien back, hopefully Anelka will be firing on all cylinders. We should beat them comfortably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott 7 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I don't know why everyone is assuming the Carling Cup is as good as won. First we have to make sure we don't let a lead slip against Everton, then we have to beat Arsenal who we know are no pushover, even their youth team. Not an easy task at all.

Lol, very good point, but still it's nice to be optomistic and we do have a fantastic chance of winning it back again, especially as we are now really starting to hit form.

Bandicoot 3 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Cant see us winning all 4, purely because I don't think any team is capable of such a feat. Carling Cup, more thank likely be in the final, if we are I think we will retain it. FA cup, well this is the one where anything could happen, just the luck of the draw in this one. Premiership, think we have a good shout, but realistically I can only see this going to Man Utd. Champions League, I have a feeling this could well be our year in this one. The day Jose was pushed out of the door I wrote our season off, so any one of the four would be a good season as far as I'm concerned.

warnie_666 1,081 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Of course, we was completely written off at one point. The most important factor in our chase for the title is that they still have to play each other and we have to play them both at the bridge. The gap could be closed up pretty sharpish, i think it will be Man you we are chasing more than Arsenal though. Wait till Lonaldo and looney get injured. They are sure to piss in their pants.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I would have taken any trophy when Grant first came in. Now we are playing well, one is really the minimum we should aim for. I feel that this may be our year in Europe, I would happily take a Carling Cup and CL double as a realistic achievement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Carling cup is still well in the Ballance, 4 good premiership teams still very much involved, no ties are over yet. Would love to see us at wembley again tho. Chelsea - Yido final. Prem, well 4 points behind, long way to go. We might win it, we might not. Still too early, we're doing great to stay in contention tho. FA Cup, just started really. All the top 4 are still in, some other decent sides too. Nothing to suggest we'll win this yet. Champs League, Just past the group stage, should knock Olympiakos out and progress to the quarters, after that, it's down to a lot of luck and there are the best teams in europe involved.Anyone can beat anyone. the UCL is a lottery pretty much. All in all, waaaaay to early. Only the Carling cup has progressed to a latish stage. Yes we're in it but so are 3 other good cup teams.
