Jesus christ man. You really are a glass half empty kind of guy aren't you?
Do you ever say anything positive ever? We should win tomorrow. Wolves have had 1 less day rest and will be missing their best CB in Boly and obviously Jiminez.

We’ve capitalised quite a bit in the last year when rivals have dropped points.

We need to improve against the better teams. I didn’t expect us to carry on with the big game form we had last season, but I’m surprised by how many points we’ve dropped in those same games so far.
We do appear to be better at dispatching the smaller/middling sides now, however. Which should see us pick up a lot of points.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They seem to have learnt from last season. Lampard and (surprisingly) Pep paid us far more respect than they did in the corresponding fixtures last year where they played right into our hands.
I think we'll do better in the big games away from home - crowd or no crowd.
bloodred, yeah I think that’s had an impact. But we’ve also not played as well as we could have either. We’ll need to pick up some wins in these games in the second half of the season. Especially if we have any ambition of getting close to Liverpool.

Long way to go yet. I'm with Ole.Trying his best as he always has done for the team. So called "supporters" should do the same.
When we finish in the top two, even winning the league,
please have the grace to appreciate his effort. In fact I'll say it now....
Manchester United will win the Premier League this season.

We don’t.
We were sixth and 11pts behind third place last Christmas. We finished third.
After game week six, we were fourteenth, 5pts behind fourth place. Now we’re fourth.

We did lose 3 semi finals and Ole does tend to go four at the back and two defensive midfielders even if we were playing our ladies team

Climbing the table and capitalising when your rivals drop points isn't exactly the same thing.
The season before last, we blew top 4 after getting into a good position. Last season we came close to repeating the trick.

Bad comment and not necessary.Are you a small child using your Dad's account without permission.. Leg smack time when he comes home.l
But that’s exactly how you climb the table. We were miles off last January and made up big points differences on our league rivals by picking up points when they didn’t. We’ve done the same this season after a poor start.
The first year under Ole we always facked up when teams around us did, the second year that’s not really been the case.

Then we will match the expectations of everyone before the season started and you get to say you are right. I do not see the problem.
Donny, bloodred,
That's the difference between catching up with your rivals and overtaking them.
We catch up, then often blow the overtaking part.
I think this season as little as 85 points could win the league.That puts around 4 or 5 teams with a chance of winning it,that definitely includes Man United.

The test will be what the team delivers when every one expects them to win games, piles on the pressure to challenge for honours. Pressure is the key word, very easy to deliver when no one expects anything from you.
Last season we had countless opportunities to capitalise on rivals slipping up, we required a final game win to seal top 4 when it should have been wrapped up sooner.
We shall see.
We overtook all of our rivals but City and Liverpool last season. We’ve overtaken plenty of our rivals this season as well.

You are so easily pleased. So many like you here.
We are close to Liverpool because they are having a relatively bad season. Understandable when your best defender is missing, yet they are still leading the pack!
By chance we are within touching distance and we are challengers? 😂
If only I could see through your rose tinted glasses

Bingo!
I'm not saying we have a great chance but we do have a chance. Our forwards haven't really fired yet and oir defence can't get much worse. We should also be pretty fresh for the run in as Ole does like to rotate.
Liverpool are still favourites but no reason at all we can't be in the mix if their form does dip.

Until Ole can prove he's not a "nearly man", which he is, I don't buy into this overly optimistic view that we have a chance.

We’ve gone from 14th to 4th with a game in hand... I am gonna go out on a limb and say we capitalised a few times in that run
We went from 8th to 3rd last season too... I’m smelling a rat about this “fails to capitalise” business

This session is still early. Let's see what happens when we reach squeaky bum time.
