REALISM- final postion in league

[BlueAnorak]

Lose on Wednesday and its gone if Leceicester and Spurs and Arse win.
Realisticly our best chance is 3rd.
1 team can mess up, 2 teams can just about mess up. 3 are unlikely to mess up.

There are plenty of games left for things to change quite dramatically and winning it is certainly not beyond the bounds of reasonable possibility, having said that we have been pretty erratic all season and I am not expecting us to win.

Why 3?
Arsenal are four in front, not 24.
None have the experience of how to win a league when it comes to the crunch.
Spurs next few are horrendous.
Let's see where we are by end of April, but I'm confident we'll be well within sight of top spot.

Because they are ahead of us and we are starting to run out if games. We have pulled it back on 1 team before (2012) 1.5 teams (2012 - we were always ahead of Chelsea with games in hand) but 3 will be difficult.

It's definitely still winnable. Win our games in hand and we are only 4 points behind Leicester, which is nothing. And closer still to Arsenal and Spurs, who have to play each other. And Arsenal have to play us.

So there's no question in my mind that if we were to play shit hot and go on a run, we can still win it. The trouble is, we've been such garbage for so long, I am struggling to believe we can do it. Yes we've been much better in the last couple of games, but I still feel we've got a shocker or two to come, which would end all hope. I am far from convinced well win tomorrow even.

Not saying we are going to win it but we win all our games we finish above arsenal. 4 points behind, game in hand and we play them.

Saw a post earlier that we got 29 points after winning the LC two years ago from a similar amount of games left. 9/2/1. As long as we didn't lose to Arsenal that would put us very close to winning the league.

But I think we will he 73 ish and 3-5 points short kicking ourselves for dropping so many points ealier in the season.

I remember sitting in a restaurant in the Algarve and hearing that Liverpool were 0-3 up against Crystal Palace and at that point I relaxed and realised we were not going to win the title...

We all know what happened then.

No one knows how it will end...

That's the beauty of football.

PS. I think we will either be Champions or do surprisingly well in the Champions League.

I thought the same in 2012 when the rags were 4-2 up at home against Everton with 10 minutes to go. It ended 4-4 and I then felt it was on. Exciting days ahead.
