No. According to Ruud Gullit, we don't win enough away games (we've won more away games in 2018 than any other PL team, but apparently that's not good enough)

Not wanting to poo poo your poo pooing of Gullit, but that stat is helped by playing quite a few more away games than others this season. (Granted we won them:))
 
Possession stats aren't apparently based on the amount of time each team has had the ball.

?...heard this on the totally football show.

Three clear divisions. I knew Man Utd had been poor, but I hadn't appreciated how far they had fallen behind the top 5. They start today's game 16 points behind Liverpool. They are very much part of that middle group chasing Europa places, all with more or less neutral goal difference.

The bottom 7 are clearly detached now. Saudi Sportswashing Machine and Palace might take some comfort from their goal differences, the others from the fact that only three go down.

So ManU are nearer the bottom than the top. Ha!
 
Jose's gone, there's no way they keep him now. He can talk about getting into top four all he likes, they are 11 points off it and not even looking close to putting together a run of form to get there.

From Reddit. If true, this is going to be brutal - and our injuries are going to hurt us more and more as we draw toward the new year.

I guess we get an extra day to start with, only positive I can see is we have back to back home games in the middle.
 
It will help that we have been rotating nearly every outfield position. Our attacking players play nearly every game as starter or substitute, so they can play every game on a 60-30-60-30 split. Kane is the only one who tends to play most of the game.
 
FWIW, minutes played this season... no surprise to see Kane topping the list but Alderweireld has already been on the pitch more than he did in the whole of last season whilst Moura proving to be the most frequently used of our Attacking Midfielders... some less injury prone CMFs would be nice though, especially when you see that the likes of Kante and Fernandinho have barely missed an EPL minute.

Just means we have a couple more days prior, to get some players rested and others fit.
It is a tough series of 4 games with just 2 days between each, which is great for my TV watching habit.
We definitely need "enough" players to rotate in i.e. it will make all the difference if we do or don't have that raft of about 5 players back, that were injured the last few weeks. Also, would be nice to tie a game up after 30 minutes like Emirates Marketing Project and then coast, rather than fighting for 95.
