Not to mention that we should have beatin Stoke by lots more. We haven't played pretty, but we won, which is a change to us dominating and losing. We had one lose and now were suddenly in trouble, sure we were bad, really bad, but surely we didn't expect to go through the whole season unbeaten did we?
Looks like we possibly have a bogey in Southampton. This might be a good wake up call to get a bit more desire, and maybe keep a closer eye on Gerrard. Maybe being put on the bench might be the kick up the ass he needs?

Luis Suarez is the difference here. HE may get us forth if he stays injury free. WE have missed him alot.
The Southampton game was a disaster but it doesnt make our season. Knee jerk reactions are part and parcel of being a fan but lets see where we stand again before the arsenal game where there are 12 points up for grabs. . What I thought was our plan of parking the bus after we scored, was I think now, the only way we could play, we couldn't do otherwise, probably because Gerrard is too old and tired to push forward. Top 4 for me are Chelsea, Arsenal, City, Spurs. Suarez back might help to finish 5th, but, I wonder how motivated he will be to carry the team again. How many games have Man United deserved to win over the years that they won but shouldn't have? They played sh1t in many games and scored at the death or been outplayed and still won! It's not how you win but how many you win! Last season and the season before we deserved a lot more wins because we outplayed the opposition and couldn't score and people whinged and whined about that. Now we win by grinding out results and they still fvcking complain! We lose one game so far, which I remind you everyone has, and our so called supporters start bitching and complaining and speaking if doom and gloom. Well said.

Am I missing something here? Do you all believe that Utd will finish lower than fourth and us?
It's going to take a huge effort for us to get fourth but at this very early stage we can't rule it out. I think it'll be tighter this year than it has for years but think City will win with Chelsea, Utd and then Arsenal making the four. I still think Spurs will fall short and then we'll get sixth.

I am just gutted that we dnt score as many goals as last season, which now shows how important goal difference is.

City
Chelsea
Aresnal
Man utd
Spurs
Everton or Liverpool
And it will stay like that for many years. We won't progress signing cheap players like Alberto and aspas and expecting them to turn into messi. I am sure I will be laid into by the optimist police but I am pretty sure who will be right come the end of the season. We have got some good results early this season but I actually think we have been quite poor. I don't blame Rodgers any manager would struggle to operate with the current set up at the club

Difference with United is, they used to do that, they were experienced to do it, maybe even planning to do so, ie, control the tempo as they wished. I am not sure did it on purpose, this is why I am not confident.

Not well said at all. 1 point from 6 against Swansea and Southampton? When did the scum ever have a record like that against teams from the bottom half? Fergie would have been in hair dryer overload. Instead BR chooses to wipe arses.

Arsenal
Man Utd
Spurs
Man City
Chelsea
Everton
Southampton/Swansea/Newcastle/Liverpool - take your pick.
We could get 7th, but we could just as easily get 10th. After spending over 50m again this season, that would be beyond woeful. Especially seeing as though Kenny achieved more and Rafa will win Serie A with games in hand.
