Just dont see it personally. Yes they have a manager who has ground out results with a good Chelsea Squad. I don't think he has the same tools at his disposal with the Scum. IMO, they have one or two very good players and one or two just below that. The drop off after that I believe will pull down the overall teams ability to compete for top 4.
For my tuppence and in no order I see Top 4 being contested between
Us, Chave Arse and Candlepool with the scum in a battle with Spuds and Hammers thereafter
