I said we would win it last year but for various reasons that conspired to be in our favour. For similar reasons I look at what has happened since and our extra games will take their toll although we have a deeper squad to deal with it.
We will get top 4 at the expense of possibly Arsenal who defensively do not have enough cover.
1. Chelsea 2. Man City 3. Scumchester 4. Liverpool 5. Arsenal 6. Spurs 7. Everton 8. West Ham 9. Newcastle 10. Aston Villa 11. Stoke 12. Sunderland 13. Southampton 14. Crystal Palace 15.Leicester 16.Swansea 17.QPR 18.Hull 19.Burnley 20.WBA

People keep commenting on these extra games and the toll it'll take on us but will it really? Is it a bit of a myth? I mean, did all the ECL teams from last year have a second team to field in it or the league? I know they had bigger squads than us last year except maybe Arsenal but mostly the players aying in the ECL played in the league also.

1. Liverpool 2. Man City 3. Chelsea 4. Arsenal
Fvck United and their new manager don't really give a fvck about them how they doin etc. Howard Webb will not help them anymore and Whiskey nose is in an old age home in South Sudan. They need to play us twice, Chelsea, Arsenal, Man City and all the rest the same. Yes we all know we need a striker and a left back but our season will not end prematurely if we don't get them and the "we need another striker and they strengthened more than us" debate / bs is (____________________________________).
We will win it, we were not lucky last year we played our socks off. Don't really care too much about the CL, FA Cup or anything other than the PL. Not naive saying that but Jesu Christu the negativity and every thread going the "we need a striker" route is just getting rediculous. Yes, we weren't lucky last season and we deserved to be second, but the main reason for that was Luis Suarez. The main reasons we were second was the team and the fact we let in 50 odd goals. Luis didn't do it all on his own. I hope you're right but I just don't see it that way.

Not saying I'm right or you're wrong. It was a question really and was just wondering.

It's only going to be a minimum of around 10 extra games, hardly too much. Some say we have a weaker squad because of the fact Suarez has left, and I would tend to agree to some point. But lets not forget that we now have experience of challenging for the title, belief and a fairly young team that has been together a year longer and have not just grown as individuals, but also as a team. I think that might be more encouraging even if we have lost Suarez.
We are much more balanced now and if we bring in the LB and striker luke some are predicting, then our team will be much stronger. I;m going for 3rdm but my heart says first.

How can you say 10 more games is hardly too much? It's about 25% more games assuming you are playing a weaker team for the cups.

with spending above 100m and a full backing by the owners, i dont see why we cant finish top. rodgers has the time and resources at his disposal this time round
Probably the greatest leftback to have scored against United at Trafford

No and finishing top is not simple. 4th is a minimum though, else BR is not the right guy we need.
