    I'm not expecting Top 4, I'm hoping though.

    Agree with this.

    It is possible, but we need some luck. First and foremost with injuries and suspensions.

    If I knew we would have our 15 best players available for the rest of the season, I would say we could finish top 4. Trouble is thats probably unrealistic. There will be more injuries, but it all depends on the length and timing of it.

    Before the season I would take top 6, if offered. Now, I would be happy to gamble on a top 6, in the hunt for a top 4 spot.

    I am not normally prone to overly positive or negative thinking.
    We are 4th.
    Barring a poor touch by Willock and an absolutely stunning strike by Paqueta, we win that game. And we looked poor but still took a point.
    We are presently getting nothing in the way of goals from our back four from what is an inordinate amount of set pieces. That will change I suspect.
    We are balanced and well organized. I suspect we will continue to pick up 1’s and 3’s for the remainder of the season.
    We will win the cup. We are a better team the ManU.

    Love your optimism - hope you’re right.
    I think you meant Adams’s strike.
    Paqueta’s was a 3 meter tap in.

    It’s a good point about lack of goals from set pieces. For 3 big lads at the back I only remember the odd header from Schar threatening (having said that Trippier contributes enough at set pieces for all 4 of them!!)
