I love how people on here are ruling out Liverpool completely from 4th, but im not bothered, we've won the Champions League as underdogs so it'll be sweeter getting 4th when everyone is dismissing it before a ball has been kicked.

Possibly not but Hulk isn't an out-and-out striker, obviously.

So you think Liverpool are likely to get 4th or even will?

You have to admit it's unlikely, right?

Yes im not going to be predicting 4th but challenging for it? i will expect that.

Too early to say, i'll know within the 1st few months of the season.

Not sure why this is so unlikely. 'Even' last year we were there or thereabouts until the Carling Cup final (25 games played/26 for most of the rest of the league). 6 points behind 4th on that day with a game in hand.

You realise the season ends in may? Villa were clear 3rd in feb a few years back, look what happened there.

Obviously. I'm just saying that for a substantial part of the past ('abysmal', 'worst ever', etc) season, we DID stay in touch with 4th.

So next year, with an improvement in the playing and (hopefully) management staff, we should challenge for 4th. It's not such a stupid viewpoint is it?

Yeah because city, united, chelsea, arsenal and spurs will all finish above you so realistically you should be aiming for 6th/5th at a push, your team just isnt strong enough to overhaul the other 5

But that doesn't mean we can't challenge does it? Nobody thought Newcastle would do much this year, but they almost did it. The league is as competitive as ever, anything can happen.

EDIT: I don't expect us to finish 4th (as you say there are 5 better teams in the league), but I expect and hope we can be at least a lot closer next season. That was the problem with this year.

Liverpool, having decided on Brendan Rodgers as their manager, are expected to announce within weeks they intend to stay at Anfield, not build their long-planned new stadium on Stanley Park. Under plans drawn up by Liverpool city council and revealed to local residents, houses would be demolished to enable the club to expand Anfield's main stand.
