That's funny. You seem to assume only your team has strengthened? All over our squad has been improved, so we're looking a stronger and better team than we were last season too.This year with our entire core strengthened (Friedal, Walker, Parker, Adebayor) we look a much stronger and better team. Especially with King playing games.
And again you're forgetting that hodgeson was largely to blame for last season. Under Dalglish as Mike pointed out, only united beat us for points last season. Sure you rolled us over at the lane, but we were as bad as we could be, even before the sendings off. You seem to be in this mindset that you are so far ahead of us that you'll come to anfield and **** us 4-0 too; strange boy. You're probably one of those spurs "COYS" fans that tell arsenal they're forever in your shadows (because you had 1 season in the champion's league and they're having a bad season).
On topic, yes there is a chance, there's always a chance. But it's a very slim one. Top 4 is and always will be the priority this season and spurs will be tough competition for it. But who knows, if we had a good run, confidence was high and maybe bought a player or 2 in january we could even pip chelsea to 3rd. The same could be said for spurs if they went on a good run.
The two manchester clubs have looked great this season but there really isn't that much between them and chelsea, liverpool & spurs.
Oh and..
It's a different season. We have a very different team now, one that you haven't finished above yet in a season. Let's wait till the end of the season and see whether you're above us then, until then just be quiet.I didn't say that us beating you consistently was the sole reason for us being better than you, it was mostly finishing above you for the past 2 years.
