Not on mine neither. We are well positioned for top 4 but it will not be easy as I think 3 places are taken with Chelsea, City and Arsenal. Our battle for 4th will be against Everton and probably United still, so one place for three teams. We will need reinforcement in Jan though.

My expectation, min top 4 finish which is possible if we maintain the form and not get carried away on the 2nd half of the season.
Winning the PL is a bonus!
While we can all enjoy the performance at WHL, I am more concern of the game at Man City. Seeing them how they dispose Arsenal over the weekend, makes me think how are we going to contain them. See their form at home, we will most probably lose the game but hope it will be a respectable score. A draw is a good result.
We will then have to carry on to the next game at Chelsea which to me, there is a chance for a win.
So, the next 3 games, min is 4 points (Cardiff win, lose at City and draw at Chelsea), best, 7 points (Cardiff win, draw at City and win at Chelsea). Win at Chelsea against Mourinho's team will be a miracle, I am not getting carried away.

Gotta keep adding to the squad. Need a box to box cm, a young sg. James McCarthy? You guys would know maybe gettable players. But 1 maybe 2 first 11 players in Jan and then why not top 3 maybe top 2. We've made a serious start, gotta keep the road on the show. Injuries will decide our fate. With one caveat everything above depends on keeping Luis till summer He WON'T be going anywhere else next month, guaranteed. Does he really look like a p1ssed off player at the moment? No, so go chew on that. I don't know when, but I am sure Real Madrid will be coming for him with a huge money transfer. [oops] off or not, he would then wish to go. If boyhood fans like Mc Manaman and Owen did it, unfortunately this will just happen with Suarez too.

I agree with you although I think it will be interesting to see how Arsenal respond to their defeat on Saturday. Chelsea in their next game at home is huge for them. If they lose that, there is no guarantee of top 4 for them. I can't see anyone but City winning the league but I do think 2nd all the way down to 6th or 7th is quite open. We can't afford a slip up against Cardiff now

Win at Chelsea against Mourinho's team will be a miracle, I am not getting carried away. I am, and stuff anyone that doesn't like it, bloody misery holes. We're going to beat Cardiff, shock win at Citeh, and pound Chelski for their first ever defeat at home under moaning maureen. We shall thern go on and win the PL title. Probably change me mind again, but it's great to live this moment, and why shouldn't the above be achievable the way the team is currently playing ey, WHY PIGGIN' NOT?  Errrr, just to remind some of the gloom merchants btw, we HAVE actually won more points than Citeh and Chelski this season so far.

Let's get this into perspective a bit ey, as some of you probably think I'm loopy ( I AM, so cock off!) WHO in their wildest of dreams would have believed anyone prior to kick off, that said or even suggested that we were going to dis-mantle Tottingham the way that we did yesterday ey, who? You'd have laughed in their face, called for the men in white coats and so would I.

If anyone told you at the start of the season we'd be in second place at Christmas time, they'd have laughed harder. But here we are.
The way the league is going right now, any team in the top 5 that can put a string of wins together could end up top of the heap. People say that it's been the worst EPL ever, but I've enjoyed this season (not just ours but the whole league's) more than any other I can remember. So many goals, so many upsets, so many great moments, such a tight race for the top. Keep your Bundisliga, your Serie A, your precious La Liga. When I want football, I want to watch the prem. What a damn bloody beautiful spectacle.

Not tooting my own horn here growler but I'm quite sure I said Liverpool would beat spurs easily because spurs are crap. And yes everyone did laugh at me
