Wymsey Posted 7 December 2020 Share Posted 7 December 2020 We're still not seen as one of the 'big six' yet by the BBC. Juventus and Argentina forward Paulo Dybala, 27, has been offered to the Premier League's big six - Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham, Manchester City and Arsenal.

Ric Flair Posted 7 December 2020 Share Posted 7 December 2020 Put it this way, I'd be amazed if less than 70 points gets top 4 this season, in fact t I think our points total from last season might pitch us about 7th this season so any improvement on the points total of last season is an achievement I'd be content with, plus a right old push at the EL.

(90 Min) Still got to love the big 6 term especially when looking at their major honours since the start of 2000 (almost 21 years ago). Man U - 8 premier leagues, 2 fa cups, 4 league cups, 1 champions league, 1 europa league Liverpool - 1 premier league, 2 fa cups, 3 league cups, 1 uefa cup, 2 champions leagues Chelsea - 4 premier leagues, 6 fa cups, 3 league cups, 1 champions league, 2 europa leagues Man City - 4 premier leagues, 2 fa cups, 5 league cups Arsenal - 2 premier leagues, 7 fa cups Spurs - 1 league cup In that period, we've won the premier league and league cup, Wigan have won the FA Cup and Birmingham and Swansea have won a league cup each. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laugthable thing is pretending he gives two shits about the national team Yes a german who constantly makes snide remarks about england gives two shits about the national team, my ****ing arse he does. Fergie used to say this as well funnily enougth. I don't love Lampard but I loved him giving it back to klopp on the touchline in the summer, their bench constantly shouts the odds off.

If Southgate gave us much thought and analysis into his team selection as even this very brief assessment we might actually achieve something . I would give Southgate credit for considering a player from outside the 4 clubs he usually draws his teams from but of course he would choose a duffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(90 Min) Why would we be? We've got significantly smaller resources, stadium and fanbases than all 6 of them. They have decades of success/exposure at the highest level and overall more trophies and recent silverware. Yes we obviously won the league and have finished above some of them in recent years, but we'd need to finish top 6 consistently for 5+ years to even be considered as a gatecrasher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we've won more than Spurs then Also Portsmouth have won the fa cup since 2000. Also Blackburn and Boro have won the League Cup.

IMO we need to finish up there consistently for a few more seasons. However, it's definitely all about perception. Having a reasonable level of interaction with Fulham supporters due to the other half's support. Something which struck me after the disaster on Monday. Whilst their supporters were delighted with a win due to their difficult league position, it was also the quality opposition and big scalp they were pleased with. The majority had the view that we are a 'proper top 6 team' and I underestimate our position, achievement and standing. So, although I begged to differ but agreed it was an ambition. I found it interesting to get the thoughts of other fans with no bias regarding us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crocyfox79 Posted 7 December 2020 Share Posted 7 December 2020 Maybe finish in the top 6 or top ten even currently 4th europa league 1/4 finals at best qualified already Could possibly win the group and a good FA cup run not a bad start so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtmcfly Posted 7 December 2020 Share Posted 7 December 2020 13 minutes ago, casablancas said: Sky’s six? Hmmm... it's certainly shorter. But it doesn't really convey the relative size of those six clubs. I mean, they're much larger in terms of revenue/spending power, have more historic top flight points, have a larger fan base and more sizeable stadia (with the attendant social media reach) than all the other clubs by quite some margin. 'Large six' is getting there, but I think it could be snappier still. Leave it with me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 7 December 2020 Share Posted 7 December 2020 We need to finish in the top 6/7 a few times before being considered part of that clique. Arsenal will still be close to the top 7 come the end of the season, as soon as Auba goes on a scoring run they'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
