Can we finish in the top 4?

[fadedhour]

Mick McCarthy said some real nice things about us on MOTD today.

after what happened to spurs last season, i think we should aim for 3rd

We have a top four attitude at the moment. No injuries to key personnel and a healthy rotation and who knows.

 

[Flynny]

Well we have to play the sh!te twice a season so theres 6 points dropped already. Remember when Moyes played our reserves at Anfield last season?

Yeh, that.

... Sorry to double post but we'll never reach our potential while we approach games (particularly big away games), with a 'play not to lose' attitude.

We haven't approached either of the games so far this season with that attitude, mate. Lets hope we've learned that lesson eh?

Top 6 would be a worthy aspiration right now.

Who knows what could happen though? The season is young.

I'm going to start with top 6 as well. Let's have a stretch goal, then as a the season rolls on, made the goal broader. But I'd like a target that's within sight first.

I can't believe I used "stretch goal" in relation to footy. Maybe I've been at work too often of late.

 

[Kay20]

But seriously...only 2 games so far. We are playing well...but 2 games. I want at least a couple of months under my belt before I make some major guesses.

It'll be interesting to see how we play against the likes City, Liverpool, and Chelsea. We held off Man U on a spirited opening night at Goodison and took apart Villa in the first half, although we lost our touch and fell asleep in the second half. We should beat WBA 2-0 or so and the Newcastle game I think will show us exactly where we are in the PL. Regardless, COYB!

West Brom away will probably be a harder game than Newcastle at home. Don't underestimate them.

We will crush them both.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

We will crush them both.

Not sure about that! Both teams possess decent squads that can have their day in the sun. Tricky fixtures both. We seem to do better against the barcodes though. Lukakou is a beast a very shrewd loan acquisition from Chelsea.

Jags will snap Lukaku like a breadstick ycard
