Arsenal - 4th on 56 Points (32 Games Played)

Run Home:

Bolton (H)
Man C (H)
Tottenham (A)
Fulham (H)
Chelsea (H)
Portsmouth (A)

Bolton - 5th on 54 Points (33 Games Played)

Run Home:

Arsenal (A)
Reading (H)
Chelsea (A)
West Ham (A)
Aston Vila (A)

Everton - 6th on 51 points (33 Games Played)

Run Home:

Charlton (H)
West Ham (A)
Manchester United (H)
Portsmouth (H)
Chelsea (A)

I reckon Arsenal will (just) make it, and I'm not being biased either.

It's just they have more games remaining then either Bolton or Everton)

What is your opinion?

If the guys that are paid to score start doing so we'll get 4th.

A fit Henry and Van Persie, and we wouldn't be in this position of having a crunch game with Bolton on Saturday. But that's the way it is and we need the likes of Adebayor, Aliadiere and Baptista to start putting the ball in the oppositions net. 2 of those guys won't take much part next season if any at all, so it's all to play for, for them.

go bolton. arsenal don't deserve to finish 4th this season
Why's that?

And which of the following reasons means Bolton deserves 4th more than Arsenal -

(in no particular order)
Boltons boring long ball style of play
Boltons goal differnce of 0 compared to +23 for Arsenal
Bolton having lost 3 more league games than Arsenal
Bolton going our of the league cup in the 3rd round, Arsenal making the final
Bolton being knocked out of the FA Cup by Arsenal
Bolton having hacked the crapola out of more teams than Arsenal

Pretty good case for Bolton deserving it more than Arsenal :D

Arsenals inability to shoot
Arsenal beating crap teams by lots and struggling against good ones
Arsenal being the only non-English team in the EPL
Arsenal players trying to bash Mikel and Lampard
Arsenal player nearly killing John Terry

Go Bolton.

Which one? Tottenham. Those scumbags won't get anywhere near it, and if they do, they'll choke for the 2nd season in a row.

Time for some research Bumble. Arsenal have beaten Man United in BOTH league games this season. They drew with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in their league game (return leg to come). They have beaten Liverpool 3 times and lost once this season. That would be the 3 teams above them, so 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss from 7 games. That's a real sturggle against the 'good' ones. I might point out that those 3 teams they have that record against are in the Champions League semi finals. No idea of Boltons record against them, I'll take any bet you want that it's not as good.

Lame debate, always has been. The EPL is not an international competition and when you look at the english national side do they really make a good claim to having a team full of them? Not to mention the money and englishmen costs as opposed to a player from another nation. It's just as much about the business side of things as it is the playing side.

Might I add, that Bolton aren't overly packed with English players in their best 11 either.

Well the teams coming 7th and 8th (Portsmouth and Reading) aren't on the list either so can't have the 9th team (T*tt*nh*m). :D

Everton now 8 points out of 4th with 5 games to play. Bolton now 5 points out of 4th and they only have 4 games to play.

7 more points (from 15) and Bolton can't take it even if they win all 4 of their games.

Just a thought... :D

Liverpool have a couple of big Champions League games to think about. They're basically assured a top 4 finish and CL football next season. They need 5 points from their 5 games if Bolton happen to win all 4 of theirs...

They will rest up around the CL. They may be a chance at coming 4th too :D

Well the poll has been decided unless Arsenal lose all 3 games and either Everton or Bolton win all 3 of theirs by massive margins.

CL football again for the Gunners.
