Toffees (A) - Top 4 Trophy, Six Pointer Match Thread

[defleppardisking]

For fuck's sake people grant jones is right. It ain't over till it's over. We still stand a great chance of winning the "4th place is also a trophy according to mr arsene wenger" trophy. My god the people here are so pessimistic and gloomy.

For fucks sake it ain't over till it's over! Is it over?

Dunno but there was a well rotund lady singing at the man $hitty game!

I'm popping to Boots today to make sure I'm well stocked up on tissues for this one. If we beat moneybags Everton and secure a 17th year of CL football, I'll be pulling my pud for the rest of the day

Nothing can be over if it never started !!!1.. we were never in contention for the title, certainly not after January when I heard two dogs on my street barking that Arsenal needed a striker but a wiser older dog said you cannot buy quality in January. The older dog by the way has been barking for over four human years or 30 doggie years.
The Virtual Trophy of fourth place is and always was on, it is and always was the height of our ambition and the maximum attainment of our ability. There is one scenario that we may get third , one I doubt very much though, but if Victims FC were to lose at West Ham they could collapse as their surge is based more on momentum than ability in comparison to the other two challengers.
So again Im saying draw at Goodison will keep them at arms length .

[defleppardisking]

Yes the "4th place is also a trophy according to mr arsene wenger" trophy is still on. All thanks to arsene wenger

Top 4 and CL, I will be one happy man.

Well said.

People completely take it completely for granted because its we've had CL football for 16 years. I understand its not a trophy but I find it incredible that few gooners seem proud of our record of qualifying for the champions league.

Teams are DESPEARTE to have what we have

It's not that people take it for granted, it's that we don't care

We have always been told that we have to be playing champs league football to entice top players to sign for us and to keep the top players we have in the club, but we are consistently losing our best players and ozil aside, I cannot remember when we last signed a top player so the importance of the champs league is an exaggerated myth imo.
The champs league is, and always will be about money - it allows the top clubs who are regulars in it, to earn money that will always keep them ahead of their rivals in their domestic leagues which will of course ensure that they can qualify the next year and the year after etc etc. In our situation though, it allows the club the market the club as a big club with sponsors and allows them to charge top tier prices to fans, without actually investing the money generated. In all seriousness, 17 consecutive years of champs league football, should have us a million miles ahead of the likes of everton, the victims and the scum down the road even allowing for the building of the stadium - we have probably earned approx. £400m in champs league revenue during that time that the toffees and swamp dwellers haven't had so again I have to say that qualifying for the champs league is all about the balance sheets for our board and I have no interest in wanting their share prices to remain high or whatever. If I could be assured in the morning that we wouldn't be stuck in Europa league next season, then I would pray for a finish outside the top 4 and if it accelerates changes within the club then so much the better.

All that being said, I will be surprised if we don't finish 4th when you compare the remaining fixtures for both clubs. Of course if they beat us sunday then momentum will be with them and momentum can be a big factor at times. As for this game I dunno what to expect but if I had to guess then I will say that we will get at least a draw

Btw, would you think that the victims, manure or the chavs would be DESPEARTE to swap our recent 16 years with their equivalent seasons ?

From where I am on the other side of the world & not being able to get to any of the gunners' games, CL is very important to me. It's a chance to see my team on telly in Europe each year up against the very best. Yeah I hope we 'Fck up' Toffees this weekend & make 4th pos safe (ish) !.

1-1 draw written all over it!!

[JVCRules]

Yeh, score draw for sure! 1-1, maybe 2-2. I think i may have to have a rare bet on this one!
