Why are people voting Top 4? Have you seen the holes in our first team, let alone the squad?
Country: England
City, Sp**s and Liverpool top three with Chelsea, Arsenal and United battling for fourth, Chelsea will get it comfortably in the end. Expect the likes of West Ham, Villa and Leicester to be up there for most of the season before falling away.

Think there's some over the top rating of our rivals on display.
Man City and Liverpool are clear obviously. Chelsea, Sp**s and us, there's not a lot of difference.
Man Utd are still a mess. Not buying this ETH hype and even if he is as good as people make out it'll take him a year or two to sort them out.
4th is very attainable and I expect us to get it.

In a dream world if we could keep our best XI healthy we would no doubt fight for top4. Put is need only Saka or Partey to get a long term injury and it's game over, man.. game over.

Because that's what it really should be for Tets.
1. Backed to the hilt unlike any manager in Arsenal's history.
2. Given endless excuses by the media & his supporters.
3. He has all his players now.
When it eventually goes pear-shaped for him, he should get sacked immediately as he's never going to be the hidden genius he's made out to be.

A-M is stuck in a fixed mindset.
Last summer: Most on here didn’t consider our young players would improve so they didn’t expect a push for CL.
This summer: Most on here don’t consider our young players will improve so they don’t expect top 4 and cup.

What have Chelsea, United or Sp**s done? Jesus on Nketiah is the clearest upgrade for any of the top 4 contenders.

Absolutely no reason to think we can't get Champions League through the league.
We are slight outsiders, but still have a great chance of getting 4th...nothing to overly fear from United or Chelsea right now, and I can't see that changing by the end of the window either.
How we start, will be very important though...an early away win, at a difficult ground like Selhurst Park, could really set the tone for us.
Praying we have all/at least most of our players and transfers, available for that match

We've definitely got a chance of getting 4th and I think we'll be there in the mix come the end of the season.
We've got a thin squad, quality wise at the moment and need at least another couple of difference makers by the end of the window. I expect our attacking players will continue to improve - Martinelli in particular is one to watch this season. Jesus is going to bring everyone round him up another level as well. Wouldn't be surprised if our defence tightened up either, especially if Tomiyasu & Tierney can stay fit.
Personally I think we'll fall just short again - I've lost confidence in Arteta after choking the end of last season and the other blips we've had. He's not a bad manager at all, but he's no Wenger and he's up against the best in the world.

Conte is a proven winner in the PL and Serie A, He used Kane and Son to overtake us to 4th within 6 months and has added good backup in Midfield and Attack.
The amount of overrating of our squad is something else, not to mention we have a manager with a 35% loss rate who cannot step up when the pressure is on. We are not sniffing Top 4 let alone 3rd.
Buddy overtake. They were 1 or 2 pts behind us when Conte took over. Don't pretend like Conte took over with 20 pts behind us and overtook us by 10 pts.
Relax. Conte is trash there is a reason why he can't stay somewhere

I think saying Conte is trash is pushing it, he is certainly not a trash manager. Go and see what players say about him and look at his record.
What he needs to do is two things. One, he needs to stay at Sp**s beyond the next 12 months and take the club up a level. Two, he needs to show that he can compete with the best in the game right now, over a 38 game season.
I have my doubts that he is amongst the elite right now, but he is definitely the best or one of the best, of the rest.

I’d say he’s elite. Pretty much anywhere he’s been he’s produced an upturn in terms of form and it’s not just some new manager bounce. He’s tactically astute but his ability to get player buy in really shows he belongs in the top bracket. He minimises his teams weaknesses while maximising it’s strengths.
He comes across as a guy who cares far more about his reputation than any club he represents. If things turn there I can see him leaving pretty sharpish.
Personally I think Sp**s are at a critical point now of the Son and Kane era. They’re both in their primes with an absolute top manager, if they can’t win anything in the next couple of seasons when are they going to win things? Will be interesting to see.

We don't have one of the 4 best squads and we don't have one of the 4 best managers. So both have to get better or we are not getting Top4. With the squad so young they should be better next year but it really depends how much and how much Arteta is gonna improve tacticly.
