You’re missing the gist of a prediction thread Petey.

Nobody is saying because we are in the top 5 right now we are 100% in the race for top 4.

It’s just a “where do you think we will finish / compete thread”

Stock your colours to the mast!! Be brave.

Are you a mid table negative Nancy or a title chasing Positive Peter???

Make a prediction based on faith and hope or like our back room team use statistical analysis to explore the possibilities of Solanke, Brazils no9 and this new fella to score the goals that will propel us to new footballing heights!!!

It’s time to believe in #frankball
 


First 3 games are very positive. Good showing vs. PSG plus two PL wins including away at City. Then a proper wake up call for Frank in terms of having his work cut out.
 
The team showed v Bournemouth that we still have a massive consistency issue and until that is rectified, even 5th will be a long shot.

We next face a West Ham side fresh off the back of a morale boosting victory who will be massively motivated against us.

We need a win there otherwise our start to the season starts to look quite poor. Imperative our new signings hit the ground running.

I think we should temper expectations this season. There’s a lot of work to do, however our team is strong enough quality wise so it would be an underachievement if Frank can’t get this squad into the top 7 IMO.
I agree we do have a massive consistency issue, but that does not rule out 5th. Consistently good teams get 80+ points, and you don't need that for 5th.
 
My head says after finishing 17th , 5th would be great and give us a good spring board for the season , however my heart Says if this squad of players can stay fit and it clicks with the new signings then lets dare to dream!
"Its better to fail Aiming high, then to succeed aiming low, and we of Spurs have set our sights very high, so high in fact that even failure will have in it an echo of Glory"
Tell that to Levy!

The media + the Premier League is pushing Woowich and Chelsea. Chelsea looks terrible. Should've dropped 2 or all 3 points vs. Fulham but the VAR delivered them 3 points. City is a compromised club. Guardiola is sabotaged but he will probably pull through during the season. Chelsea have money but are all over the place. They seem terrible given how much they spend and how many players they keep getting.
