now what position do you expect us to finish?

always said 2nd

between 2nd and 4th too, makes a big difference what we spend in jan as i think west ham will definitely win it & can see a good run from 'Boro. Hope i'm wrong and we finish top two but i'm just not convinced our away form is good enough.

I understand the sentiment, but if you think about it logically, that makes no sense at all.

 

1) our away form has been dreadful thus far. It is unlikely to continue to be so bad.

 

2) even though it has been dreadful, we are top.

 

So on the basis that we are currently top with awful away form, which will most likely improve even modestly, how does it bear out that we'll perform the same or better, but achieve less, going forward?
