If they do not make top 4 now they will be the first team in Prem history to do so with that number of points by xmas by all accounts. They need to sacrifice the FA Cup and play kids to give the first team a rest week if they are gonna avoid fatigue and injuries....Would love to see them break up the CL monopoly
That's not that significant a stat.
Most of the teams that were top at Christmas were one of the favourites to lift the title anyway so it would be a shock if they didn't finish top four from that position.
Leicester were a 5000/1 shot at the start of the season so they still have to overperform to hang on to the top four places despite being top at Christmas.
I'd happily give up the FA Cup to concentrate on the league this season. I'd rather us finish top four than win the FA Cup as it's much more of an achievement and if we get Champions League football a whole new level of players come within reach and success breeds success.
