A lot of positives again today. Thought we played well from start to finish and controlled the game. We went away and got a good win, with players like Zlatan, Rashford, Mata, Mikhitarian, Valencia, Carrick, Shaw etc out of the first 11, it shows the strength we have. I think this is a very solid first season for Jose if unspectacular. When you look at what Klopp and Pep have achieved in their first seasons. We already have a major trophy in the bag, we're into the semi finals of another, and we're about 24 unbeaten in the league. But for nothing short of woeful finishing at times this season we could well be on for a title charge too. Bailly looks too clsss, Pogba has had a few poor games but also been brilliant at times and his talent is unquestionable. I think we'll see the best of him next season. His stats are brilliant, goals, assists, been unlucky hitting the woodwork 10 times or more, more key passes than anyone etc, he's got the lot. Miki hot and cold but again has everything in his locker. In Rashford and Martial we have to potentially World Class forwards, these two can be anything. With another 3/ 4 top quality signings this summer we will be a force to be reckoned with again. To all those (mainly Liverpool fans) claiming Jose had lost it, I think he's proven himself this season.
Realistically I don't think we'll make top 4. Liverpool have 4 more games. We have potentially 9. Plus we have Arsenal, Spurs and City. I can't see us getting the points for 4th, and think we should push on do success in Europa now. Next season Liverpool and Chelsea will have Europe to contend with and that can only hinder them. I think we'll have a right go next season, and I'm loving life under Jose. Onwards and upwards.

Good post stand. I differ from you on top 4. I still maintain that pool will not qualify. A win on Thursday and we will be 3rd I would not expect to drop out of the top 4 thereafter. Liverpool have West ham and Watford away I wouldn't fancy then to win either.

SyNd, whilst I wNt to agree we currently have momentum whilst City, Arsenal, and LIverpool are looking all over the place. Zlatan being injured gives us pace up front and it might be you score 3, we'll score 4 for the rest of the season. I sense something's no significant is happening right now.
