No we won'tWe'll still get fourth

when KDB returns the one who should miss out will be silva in my opinion he is out of form badly atm
We don't have anyone to come in for Yaya at the moment because Delph, nasri and De bruyne are all out, but his legs have totally gone. He might still be quality on the ball, but a huge par of football is the work you do off it, and he doesn't do that. And it means we start with just one up top to accommodate him. He's a disaster and liability in all the big games.
I know there are more problems than Yaya Toure but if you are looking for the single biggest factor in our decline it's down to what has happened to Toure
Yes I must admit we're no better when Toure is not playing. However I think that is down to PellegriniI cant believe you are blaming Toure for that.
Its the managers inability to either set up a team around him and instruct the players how to play and what to do tactically or to play without certain players (Kompany)
Have you seen us play without Yaya recently - we are just as bad if not worse
navas puts a great shift in, but his quality in front of goal is shocking. He is not good enoughnavas for me...inaffectual and always has been

He makes the decisions.Pellegrini is the biggest single factor to our decline. Nothing else even comes close.
Anything is possible and frankly it's a miracle that we still have a chance but let's not gloss over the form we are in.
In the last 25 games we have averaged 1.44 points per game. If we replicate that for the final 8 games we will finish on 62 points. Will that be enough for top 4?
In the last 8 games it is 1 point per game. That would take us to 59.
What is going to change to change any of this?
More worryingly, 5 of those are away and we still have 2 top 8 clubs at home whom we haven't beaten all season
On form we will probably finish 6th or 7th.
The powers that be must act now or it will be too late.
