The battle for 3rd place

[SWP's back]

Still favourites for third which is something I guess.

Roll on Thursday.

Liverpool losing at home is a big help for us. Can see us finish 3rd now hopefully.

Red scouse doing their best to put themselves out of top 4 which sadly, will gift the scum a spot.

Third place finish would be a pleasant end to the season....

Thanks palace.

Right now I can't call it. I have no faith in us to win the big football matches. Thursday is now a big football match.

As long as we don't lose Thursday it should be secure. Tough ask if Silva, Fernandinho, Aguero are out.

Which is how I've been feeling for the last two seasons now, we simply can't compete against out major rivals anymore.

This means there's no real hope of winning the league until Pep gets in some seriously good players with a tougher mentality during this summer.

In what way is it secure? We'd still have to play Palace who are beating all the big teams, Leicester who dicked us the last time we played them, and West Brom who are a pain in the arse to break down. This goes way beyond just beating the rags.

Top 4 will come down to who bottles it the least and quite frankly it's anybody's guess who gets the places
