Daft to get too pessimistic as well can't see rags getting much more than 67 points so 3 wins and a draw would probably be enough. Not cocky about it but quite confident.One point margin if results go as expected next weekend, daft to get cocky about it.

Not compared to 1st or 2nd/ I really dont think they will give a toss whether they are 3rd or 4th as long as they make the CL neither will we City fans care if we are 3rd or 4th.3rd is a huge carrot to play for still. They're mostly playing sides at the bottom as well.

Just them having Villa at home and us away at Chelsea (one win since 1992) and settle for a draw opens it wide open. Soton and Swansea away and Arsenal at home are not east, somehow I think it is 3rd or 5th for us.

The way I see it Arsenal toss it off every season when it comes to the business end. If anything we could be stronger with a full squad to choose from AND we have to play them at ours. We went on an unbeaten run of 8 at the end of last season. All about opinions I suppose.Trouble is Arsenal always go on a winning run once they can't win it and the pressure is off them.

It's all ifs buts and maybe's. Anything could happen yet. I think it's fair to say we will finish somewhere between 3rd and 6th.

I think the gap will probably be one point again next weekend, so not getting carried away just yet. Think this will go to the wire.
That's why today's result was so good. Some people didn't want a spurs win. Weird.

I think whoever wins the game against Arsenal will finish third, the fact it comes after the c/ l semi final may impact, if we are in it, I couldn't tell you which way though.The way I see it Arsenal toss it off every season when it comes to the business end.
