And our league schedule from now until the mid-January NLD by league place is 19, 9, 10, 3, 11, 16, 17, and our game in hand being against 18.
Fourth would be a massive achievement, but if we can stack some points this month against easier opponents and then get to January in a competitive league spot with a better sense of Conte’s tactics and the transfer window open, it’s not fully implausible.
That’s what I’m thinking. There is no doubt in my mind that this team isn’t great, but Under a top manager like Conte, if he can navigate some wins against the easier teams which we do have until Jan, then we have every chance of ending the season strongly, but he has to be backed by that little bald weasel
If United hadn't kept Ole for a season longer than they should have I don't think we would be having this conversation, I mean take a look at their squad, they have players like Van Der Beek, Lindgard, Cavani, Martial who barely get a game.
For me they are still the big favourites for 4th now they have a new boss, but we could have a 4 point cushion on them and a nice run of games to come. So its not utterly implausible with a couple of shrewd signings for us to put a challenge in for fourth.
We all know that biggest issue we have is our squad depth as we saw during that embarrassment against the Slovenian Dog and Duck, but that could yet be addressed.
Chances are its not going to happen, but its nice to have that conversation again if nothing else.
The fact is if we win our game in hand we are 4th 14 games into the season so the conversation can be had without feeling like knees are being jerked.
Wow that’s absurd. Those top 3 greedy cunts are hoarding all the goals.Table's bizarre. Only the top 4 have a positive goal differential.
Unfortunately Everton are shit so Woolwich will win.Knuckle-Dragging Derby (West Ham V Chavs) this weekend too..... Should help our cause.
Also:
Wolves / Liverpool
Utd / Palace
Everton / Goons
That's because they are the only 3 teams in the league that play on the front foot and actively seek to destroy the opposition.Wow that’s absurd. Those top 3 greedy cunts are hoarding all the goals.
