Where will we finish

[Cels]

Said in September that I felt we would finish 9th or below, so I'm sticking with that.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Finishing outside the top 4 would be a massive failure, we are well placed and can easily get there.
No one consistent and no one likely to be

Liverpool City and United will easily be in there (all of them will probably be ahead of us once games in hand are played). There’s at best one spot that really should be between Chelsea and Spurs but because they’re both having a wobble just now it gives us an opportunity.

We won’t make it though unless we keep our top players fit. This current injury crisis is ridiculous as most of are rivals are at full strength.

 

[Carl O'Ancelotti]

The Etihad.

 

[blue to the bone]

Leicester drop points there

If we could get a couple of players in January who knows!?

Leicester won the PL before. Anything is possible.

I don't think we have enough information to make sound predictions right now. That question is probably best tabled until after the January window, when we'll know just how vulnerable to injuries we are during the run-in.

If I had to guess right now, 6th. Carlo has done an amazing job of stitching a second version of our first XI together after injuries and suspensions undid the league-leading first XI. But my guess based on history would be that we will sustain more injuries, we won't bring in cover, and that he'll need enough time to come up with Plan C that we won't be able to pull back into the top 4.

We'll finish when things come to an end, hope this helps.

 

[Toffeeslam]

Not enough squad depth for top 4, but, if we Have reasonable luck with injuries, I think we are good enough to qualify for the Europa.

i would have agreed with you on that but December has been very good for us and with players coming back we are in with a genuine shout

If we were to blow it it would have been round about now with players out and games coming thick and fast

and going out the league cup might actually help us, all depends on when we get players back and if we can get a decent loan or two in January

The betting markets still don’t really rate our chances.. we are around 6/1 to finish top 4, and about 2/1 to finish top 6.
I think we should be shorter priced than that.. no one is really showing much consistency at all this season and I think that will continue.

 

[Yarrgh]

We'll get the tenth title before we leave Goodison. Might as well get an asterisk one to go with it.

 

[blue61]

The table looks even better today, and we haven't even played. I reckon if we can not play until about March, we'll have the title wrapped up by Easter. Hand it over Shipman.

Those odds arent bad mate. Four points seperate teams 2nd to 9th, not even halfway yet.

 

[Stan Lee Park]

If Covid continues to grow at this rate, a better question would be "When will we finish"?

 

[USABlue]

Probably 5th-7th
