If Tottenham suffers major injuries or 'Arry's trial affects them in some way, there's a chance one of the lower teams passes them.

The fight for that 4th Champs League spot is going to be extremely heated.

Dont see any of the three (L'pool, chelski, or Arsenal) breaking up the top 3.

Should still be an awesome 2nd half of the season.

If Chelsea get into the top 3 it would take an incredible losing streak by Spurs. Tottenham is scoring goals and Chelsea isn't, I think the top 3 is set. I'm writing off Pool and Arsenal as far as top 3 goes because of the point differential, and they haven't looked too consistent either.

Edited. I meant to say that Chelsea has no chance for 3rd unless if the hand of God smites Tottenham.

I kept waiting for Spurs to fall back to the pack but it hasn't happened and if anything they keep playing better.

It's amazing that next year most likely two of the Big 4 won't qualify for CL.

Spurs were going after Krasic, which would have been a huge signing, he's a solid player. Didn't materialize though.

Yep, a pretty brutal stretch. That's why we need to finish games like Wigan and be sure to get the 3 points when it looks like a "gimme" on paper. I feel a rash of draws on the horizon. Luckily, the schedule pans out nicely to pick up points at season's end.
