The battle for 4th place

[tiggsywiggsywoo]

As it stands unless improved coaching and team selection is introduced, I'm afraid it's beyond us. Silly really, we're still in the champions league and indeed still fourth. But the forecast is bleak. Incredible.

Not worried about the keeper situation myself.
Willy is at least as good as Joe.
It's the prospect of Otsmendi and Mangala that frightens me!

Willy at least as good as Joe?? Really?

Still in with a shout, but 4 games out of the last 8 look almost nailed on for dropping points (given our well documented struggled against teams in the top half).

Feel like we're relying on United/West Ham messing up more than us. I think we'll miss out personally, unless we get players back after the international break & something clicks in attack.

Don't mind if it has to be honest. Next season is a rebuild season as Pep will not be able to fix this in 2 months. He might sort it in time for a run in the EL, a competition we might have a shot at winning. Should be priced better than the CL as well.

Made a few appalling comments on here this evening tbh

Couldn't give a shit. It's appalling that Demichellis gets £100k a week and couldn't give a fuck.

Hope they all get crippled the cunts.

1. That would be counterproductive.

2. I think you're overreacting.

3. I think you're over reacting.

Really
Joe has been resting on his laurels for a while.
Willy can actually catch and hold a football as well as distributing much better than Joe.
He's a pretty handy shot stopper too.
Was voted best keeper in la liga only a few years back.
Not going to let us down.

We've beaten Southampton and they're in the top eight. Perhaps you meant we hadn't beaten anybody in the top 8 about six or eight weeks ago when people started going on about it.
4th hasn't gone, but looking at the fixtures I think it might. Still, it will give Pep a bit of a challenge.

He's already got a challenge. A huge challenge, this team is in bits. I wouldn't care about the loss tonight if pellegrini was sacked.

If we get KDB , Vinny , Nasri back for the last 6 weeks of the season , and keep them fit , it will be like signing three new players , and we can get more points than the goons , i would like a top four of , Leicester ,Spuds , Hammers and us , none of the traditional top 4 in the Champs league , maybe Sky and the rest of the media will then realise there is more to the Premier league than rags,goons,scouse and chavs.

Mini league with us rags and the hammers

Get a few players back in De Bruyne, Nasri and Delph and we may fluke it
