Stat attack - is 4th viable?

[Brennan]

West Brom are pretty dead in the water now and Swansea won't be up to much. OK, we DEFINITELY wont finish 8th. And shouldn't finish below the RS. Not considering how woeful as a team they are.

Haha, see, beat the optimism out of you eventually

I'll be disappointed if we're not top 6 myself. Liverpool have brought players in but we've just gotten Gibson and Mirallas back and providing they stay fit our starting eleven is much stronger than it was for the first two thirds of the season.

Villa - Home. WIN
United - Away. LOSS
Norwich - Away. WIN
Reading - Home. WIN
Arsenal - Away. DRAW
City - Home. DRAW
Stoke - Home. WIN
Tottenham - Away. LOSS
QPR - Home. WIN
Sunderland - Away. DRAW
Fulham - Home. WIN
Libberpewl - Away. DRAW
West Ham - Home. WIN
Chelski - Away. LOSS

More difficult than the first half of the season I think.

Tottenham away will be a MAAAASSIVE game.

That is my predictions for the games we have left..... realistically.

That's 68 pts (isn't it?) and would of secured 5th place last season?

On current point per game achieved...
http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/PR/ppgame.html

...we stand to achieve 64.8 points.

In the past 10 seasons, 65 points would've got us...

....I think these stats are a really useful benchmark/target. I always feel that 25 points for Xmas is a decent marker for us. I do think it's achievable because we are a very decent side. Hopefully when we play Man Utd, Arsenal, et al they will be embroiled in Europe. I do think it will be a major embarressment if our neighbours don't finish above us taking account of the monies they have spent. Phil McNulty pointed out that £38m of Rodgers' players started the Oldham game and he has invested more this week. They spent more releasing Cole than we did on Stones.

Right, I've found a predictor.

Got us to lose to United, Liverpool and Chelsea

Draw at Arsenal and Spurs

Beat City at home.

Table looks like this.

P Team PL GD PTS
1 Man Utd 38 54 97
2 Man City 38 56 89
3 Chelsea 38 52 83
4 Everton 38 24 70
5 Tottenham 38 23 70
6 Arsenal 38 34 69
7 Liverpool 38 23 65
8 West Brom 38 -6 47
9 Norwich 38 -20 47
10 Swansea 38 -1 45
11 Sunderland 38 -8 45
12 Stoke 38 -11 44
13 Reading 38 -20 38
14 Newcastle 38 -23 35
15 Southampton 38 -23 35
16 West Ham 38 -25 35
17 Fulham 38 -20 34
18 Wigan 38 -33 33
19 Villa 38 -40 33
20 QPR 38 -36 24

Would make for a hell of an exciting last day of the season.

27 points there which we could realistically achieve.

68 points will get 4th place this year imo.

That's the one I used.

Tried to be as fair as possible. Hated putting us to lose at the piggery but it's inevitable.

 

[Deloodid]

Looks like we are gonna retain the 7th plac trophy.

 

[Allezfan]

Kopites 5th? Have a word with yourself.

 

[evertondotcom]

We just need to win the poorer sides instead of drawing, never mind the top ones.

I hope you're 8.

 

[Azzurri]

I hope you're 8.

Or Finnish...
