Thought 4th was out of reach, but with Liverpool capitulating we're a great chance now.

Have to keep this momentum going as one slip up could be very costly.

It's not going to be easy to keep it but hopefully even if Liverpool comes back winning we see Leicester dropping points then instead. Our last 3 games against Arsenal, Leicester and Villa are the going to be the culmination of the season!

 
1st place probably out of reach, unless Citeh fall off a cliff, 2nd easily achievable though, 45 points still to play for, so 'Venimus et nos vidimus vicit'

 
Our next 3 league games 

Utd home

Liverpool away 

Everton at home 

Oooooof!!!!! Considering two are home games, 4 points should be the absolute minimum if we want to stay in top 4 contention.

 
We need to aim for 70 points to make top 4. Even that may not be enough depending on how other times finish but is usually about the amount of points that 4th gets. Right now we have 44 points with 12 to play. That means 26 points from 12 games which is more than 2 points per game. We have little room for error and at the moment I reckon we will fall short.

 
I think we could finish anywhere between 6th and 9th, I don’t see us finishing top 4, it relies on too many defensive mistakes going in our favour.

 
I wonder where we would be now if even just one of big signings excelled. Werner, Havertz or Ziyech. If one of them actually played to their potential we should be in top 3 comfortably. How the hell have all signings flopped really badly so far?

I think you have to scrutinize the club's recruitment policy. Too many of our recent signings have been the wrong fit for our system and the manager at the time appears to have had limited to no input in the decision. That doesn't make them bad players, just the wrong players for our set up.

 
Injuries and suspensions.

We never take these into account, I was prevaricating about betting on Arsenal to beat Leicester. Never did due to home commitments getting in the way and Arsenal did win yet later realized Leicester had about 7 out injured.

I think outside the top 2 we won't see many changes even Utd due to their multiple attacking options, changes will be in the other positions and this is for Tommy T to manage.

It's all part of being a billionaire ... spend a lot of money because you can, and if that doesn't work, or you don't like what you've spent it on, simply spend even more.

Roman even does it with his yachts. The Eclipse is a pretty nice boat in anyone's book, and yet he's still having £430M of new boat being built in Germany ...

But can the boat track back? That is the question.

I think the boat thing is directly linked to the size of his willy!

 
Wow, Leicesters last 3 games are very tough. West Ham will be a challenge as well for top 4
