How is this thread Saints related?

 

As I said on the other thread, our results will affect the outcome.

 

We've already undermined Man U and Liverpool's top 4 credentials. So

 

Chelsea

Arsenal

Man City

Saints

Man City

Chelsea

Arsenal

Liverpool

 

but my God is it hard to choose this year. You could make excuses for Man U picking up their form and enough points to get in, Spurs with their "much improved" squad, and yes even Us, little old Saints, if we really can continue something resembling our current form all season. (Which would mean routinely picking up points from bottom half clubs and sneaking the odd win or three against the "top sixers".

This too for me. It's going to end in tears though! Spurs miss out, Man Utd miss out, and who would bet against us and Everton also not getting top 6. Going to be the most open season for a long time. Hope Man Utd go down ?

We've had a relatively easy start, and have played some of the best football many have ever seen from us, some of the top teams are struggling, and we are still only 5th.

 

That tells you all you need to know about our top four chances and the strength of the richer clubs.

 

If you go back and read some of the post match threads/reports from August/September we were scraping decent results whilst not performing at our best. It's only October that we've started playing near our best I would venture.

 

So I would tend to disagree we are where we are because we've been at the top of our game all season and others haven't.

Is a huge few weeks for us. We have some very tough games coming up, if we're still top 6 come NYD, then we've done excellently well. Plus we've played a lot of the bottom teams at home. Real shame we couldn't have beaten both West Ham and Sunderland as we'd be top. Just got to keep taking one game at a time, keep working hard and we'll do ok. Top 8 looks a bottom target for us now though.
