I like your optimism DW. I still think 4th is a bit beyond us, I just don't think we score enough goals. I'm more confident 5th or 6th is achievable than I was last time this was discussed. Man U and Spurs seem very poor atm and West Ham have dropped off since we beat them.....you just never know, if we beat beat Leicester and West Ham, think we have a realistic chance.
 
Looking at the fixtures of each team, it looks like Arsenal have the best of the run in, though the 3 still to be arranged are their toughest. It really is down to which team can establish some consistency. For us, it's consistency in front of goal. If we can put a run together where we actually take more of our chances 4th is achievable. Not probable, I'm with Del, 6th seems more within our reach, but 4th is still a possibility. Hopefully Neto can come in firing on all cylinders and give our creativity and goal scoring a much needed boost. If he does, we can take 4th spot.
 
Exactly. Plus we're higher in the table than two of them, ten points clear of one of them.
 
*waits for Paddy's prediction before deciding to be on TeamTop4 or TeamWastedOpportunity*
Boris Johnson gone in the next week, is my guess on what paddy will say
 
Loving the thought, but this is crazy talk. We'll finish 7th, which hopefully will be enough to get us into the EUVanarama trophy. Doesn't hurt to dream, though, and stranger things have happened (see Leicester, 2015–16).
 
Difficult to predict as you don't know what other sides will need eg Liverpool could be in a CL final resting their starters or needing a win for the league against us.
Nevertheless I had
Man Utd 61
Arsenal 61
Spurs 60
West Ham 58
Wolves 57 5 wins Leicester, Palace, Leeds, Norwich, Watford. 5 losses West Ham, City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Burnley. 5 draws
 
If we somehow beat Leicester by 3, we go 5th. Heady days.

Not that we will, but they are a defense that can be got at.
