Lets be honest now how many actually believe that we will finish top 4 this year. Before you all rush in and say "of course we will" I want to know on what basis you think we will because I certainly don't.
I said on here before the season started that our team was not good enough for top honours and I still say so.
I know we have had injuries but all the top sides have but it doesn't seem to make a lot of difference to their results. I think we have been missing Dawson but Woodgate and King hardly ever play anyway and in Woodgates case never.
The rest of our defence is very ordinary in my opinion we need two full backs,as Hutton, Corluka and Ekotto are just not good enough. Kaboul is a good odd job man but hardly top class and Bassong has had his chances to shine but looks at times out of his depth.The midfield has been very dissapointing this year. Jenas looked Ok in a couple of games but when it matters he has not been up to it and Lennon seems to stand around most of the time looking like a little boy lost wondering what to do next. He still has to convince that he is not all speed and no imagination and there are to many long periods when he is not involved in the game. Modric on his day is a geat player but he has been dissapointing this season so far and Huddlestone.....everybody's favourite......doesn't do enough in a game to convince me he his is the class player that most on here thik he is. He makes a 40 yard pass and everybody talks about him in the same breath as Hoddle I'm afraid he's no where near that standard. He doesn't score enough goals for one and for another he is not consistent enough with his passing.
Our strike force is second rate and whilst we are missing Defoe, before his injury he wasn't exactly banging them in regularly was he.
Bale and VDV are pure class and would walk into any of the top four sides as would a back to form Modric. But the rest of our team in my opinion would not and to me that's the answer the over all side is not a top 4 side.
I have read on here that on Saturday we matched Utd and could have won. Not the game I watched. We looked good for the first 30 mins and then you had the feeling that they were in control and the second half performance was very poor and we looked like we had surrendered already. I was more dissapointed in that second half performance than any game this season.
That is my honest opinion on our current side and I'm not just saying it now I posted a similar one to this at the beginning of the season.
Is the manager to take some of the blame aswell as the players or are we just not good enough to move out Chelsea who I think will win it, Arsenal who sadly are hitting form and I think will finish second and Man U or City. I think we are looking at 5th or 6th at best.
Lets have some honest replies not Spurs through "Rose colour glasses". If you believe I am talking sh*t tell me but because you really believe it not because you want to believe it.
