I'd say 6th would be ours as all our rivals for 6th have been considerabley weakened in the January Transfer Window, apart from Bolton.
So in that case we should push for 5th place as a realistic target.
Also the difference between 5th and 6th may end up being less than 10 points, as you have to remember Spurs are in champ league knock outs and will lose points in the league when they play the knock outs, as shown in the group stages in the league.
4th though is unrealistic as our squad quite simply can't match up against the top 5 in head to head matches, untill we do so top 4 can't be thought of.
Upcoming world class players IMO for 2014 WORLD CUP: K-P Boateng, Gotze, Sturridge, Kroos, Lucas Leiva, Hummels, Kyriakos Papadopoulos,
