i think we can be up with arsenal and spurs

that's if arsenal lose rvp (where would they have finished without his goals)

Yeah when Arsenal lose RVP, that opens up a spot for us. Chelsea aren't as strong as people think. They've lost Drogba, Kalou and others. Their defence is old and Lampard is finished.
Modric is leaving Spurs, so they're already weak. We've got a great chance. Stop being pessimistic!!

arsenal will really struggle i think, spurs too avb is crap and no modric...chelsea in transition,no drogba to batter teams with, utd will of course be there and should have vidic back which makes them favourites if he is fit. City well looks like balotelli is staying so thats good for everyone else. great chance for us- if we get dempsey and allen i would expect top 4

Is that top 4 under BR or under that mythical manager you seem to think we appointed.

just start winning at home before worrying about other teams and league position .

Spurs and Arsenal will have to hit the ground running with all of the people they lost. I think Tottenham will have it worse though, with Podolski and Giroud coming in for Arsenal.

think its different this year, years of selling their best players has to take them down a peg. would have last year only for rvp having such a wonderful season.

I was gonna make that point on arsenal last night but couldn't be bothered cause I get shot down year after year. No one learns their lesson on Arsenal, they have lost quality players time and time again but still in the end finish top 4 quite comfortably more often than not. They won't struggle to be in contention what so ever.

Also this Chelsea in transition stuff. They have bought some amazing players, they are gonna be right up there, just maybe struggle for title/2nd place. These teams aren't going to struggle to have enough points to contend for top 4. We have to play out of our skin to get up there. The onus is going to be on us. People expecting arsenal and chelsea to struggle are in for a rude awakening just like they get every single year but don't learn from.

Wenger is the difference, like him or not he is one of the best managers around and that is the reason Arsenal will challenge with whatever players they have season after season.

Spurs are much better than us at the moment, Newcastle have built a bit of a gap which I dont think can be breached in just one season and as for Everton, there best team against ours there is absolutely nothing between us, thats how I see it anyway.
