Hammers for Champions League?

Soul Rider · 15 Feb 2006 at 15:34

What do you think of the chances of West Ham making the champions league this year?

Premier League Table

The way they are playing i think there is every chance, but then again i would!!!

What do you guys think?

Before last night i thourght Arsenal would be too good in the end and would take 4th, there defence has never been great but there attack (Henry) has got them out of trouble but last night was the poorest i have seen Arsenal play since Wenger took over (As an attacking side). Personally i think Bolton may get it. Presuming they win there games in hand (not sure who they are against though) they would be level on points with spurs and i just think that they have got more experience in there side which may make the difference. Out of the four (Arsenal, Spurs, Bolton and West Ham) i think West Ham are the real dark horses. But as a neutral i would like to see West Ham get it, it would be good for football to see a true footballing team do well.

Zero?

I think it'll be Bolton with Arsenal 5th, Spurs 6th. Still, UEFA Cup's quite a good result for the hammers. They'd have taken that at the start of the season gratefully.

Chelsea, Man Utd, Liverpool, Spurs, Bolton, Everton.

Same chance as Sunderland staying up.

West Ham should get Europe (UEFA)

As in "The Final Countdown"? I'm not sure Pardew is a fan of late 80's light rock?

UEFA Cup i think. Spurs for CL.

Tunney · 15 Feb 2006 at 21:28

I think it'll be either Spurs or Bolton for the CL spot. West Ham have been doing well, but I don't think they'll quite manage it.

i think bolton will nick the champs league spot

tottenham wont

bolton have 2games in hand

Soul Rider · 16 Feb 2006 at 13:40

Yeah, but they've got to win those games yet, nothing is for certain. Just looking on current form, and slight bias, i feel we've got a really good chance. Arsenal seem to have lost it, spurs are playing very indifferently, i personally think 4th spot will be between west ham and bolton, but hey , we'll see.

I think the last CL spot is Tottenham's to lose really. They've got the maringally better run-in than all the other teams (only Chelsea and Arsenal of the top clubs to play I think), so it's really just down to whether they slip up and let one of the rest in. I don't think Bolton will win both their games in hand to catch right up with them, but they'll still be close behind.

With all that said, I'm still holding out hope that Arsenal can regain a bit of form and take that fourth place by the 22nd of April, or even better, on it.

Spurs have got some pretty hard fixtures. Chelsea, Arsenal, West Ham and Everton away. Manchester United at home too.

They really need to be building up a nice gap now if they want to clinch that CL spot.

Stretch · 16 Feb 2006 at 14:06

I really hope West Ham do get the fourth spot, but I've a feeling they'll fall just short. I think Bolton will get it if they can keep their form. Still 13 or so games left though so anything could happen.
