I think 70 points will certainly do it and 65 points possibly.

I find it very unlikely we will have another run as bad as December, they had their chance.

This has kinda been on parr. December we played 6..won 3. This has been 1 win in 4.

Either way....somehow still there!

I personally think the tie isn't a foregone conclusion. They can be got at, but more will depend on what state we're in when it comes around.

You know what, just go facking win the whole thing and we don't have to worry about this shitty Top 4.

It's just bizzare. Know last season there was gaps but nothing like this or didnt seem so obvious. Even between City and Liverpool. For Liverpool to lose by a point last season and be 16 ahead this time.

Oh dear...

On both occasions Valencia have been in our group, we've reached the final.

Crazier things have happened [emoji6]

I expected this at the start and I was the first to pour cold water on the title talk when we won six games in a row, it just wasn't happening.

There's is an element of luck that there's no real strong rival (for top 4) while we undertake the biggest restructure of the Roman era but that is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, top four this season will be a very good result and set us up well.

Would be almost poetic if we knocked Liverpool out in the semi (while they won their first title for decades) and then went on to win in Istanbul.

Would quite literally be a roles reverse of 2005.

I just see us ruining their parade somehow. CL talk is a big ask, but we do have to go to Anfield where more will arguably on the line for us.

End their unbeaten stretch along with avenging Alonso's goal which ended our unbeaten home record in the process.

You've just reminded me that we're the visitors when they lift the thing 

I know the CL is unlikely to say the least, but in my view no half decent team can be ruled out in knockout football, however in the likely event of failure I would love a good run at it, the CL isn't just about winning it but making memories aswell.

Err, check the table again and see it properly this time. 

The will eventually leapfrog, because they will be only 3 points behind, and will get a moral boost If they beat Liverpool, they are playing better football. If Wolves beat Liverpool tomorrow they will get the 4th Champions League spot.

 

Believe me, I check PL table every day. Just Google 'Premier League Table' and Google will give you complete info about the league.
