Kwa body language ya wachezaji wa liverpool, they are more likely to lose their spot unless wawaondoe baadhi ya wachezaji in january kwa sababu wanaharibu the spirit ya timu, Arsenal pia iko hatihati kwasasa
Ila bado nina matumaini kwamba the top four will be
- Manure
- Scums
- Liverpool/Man city
- Arsenal/Man city
Tottenham bado kidogo labda next season

The Premier League have introduced a home-grown player rule which will come into effect from next season, alongside a limit on squad sizes.
From the 2010/11 campaign, the 20 Premier League clubs have voted to introduce measures which will see all teams required to have eight home-grown players out of a squad of 25.
Chief executive Richard Scudamore
confirmed the changes, with clubs only able to make alterations to their squads during the two transfer windows.
"As of next season clubs will be required to have a squad named of up to 25 players, of which no more than 17 can be over the age of 21 and not home grown," Scudamore said.
"The definition of home grown is trained for three years under the age of 21 by somebody in the English and Welsh professional system.
"Clubs will have to declare their 25 at the end of August when the window shuts and then again at the end of January."
Players who are aged under 21 are eligible over and above the limit of 25 players per squad.
Incentive
Scudamore does not believe the move will encourage clubs to hoard young foreign players and claims the England team will ultimately reap the reward.
"It's not in the club's interests to stockpile players. It will make buying home-grown talent more attractive," he said.
"We're not going down the route of a nationality test but what this will mean is that you just can't buy a team from abroad.
"We think it will give clubs an extra incentive to invest in youth. We think that one of the benefits will be that it will help the England team."
All 20 Premier League members also agreed to adhere to a set of financial reporting rules designed to protect the viability and sustainability of the clubs.
Finances
"They will all have to annually submit accounts and future financial information," said Scudamore.
"At all times the board of the Premier League will be applying a test which basically says this: can the club fulfil its fixtures, pay off its creditors when they are due and also to meet obligations to the Premier League's contracts and partners?
"If the board believe a club is at risk of not meeting those obligations, it has to then step in and agree a budget for the running of that club. Any transfers can be embargoed.
"It's absolutely crucial that these clubs are run as ongoing viable concerns. These financial rules apply immediately.
"This is tied in, and we passed the rule during the summer, to a 'fit and proper person test'. At our club meeting last week, the clubs absolutely endorsed our position of not linking expenditure to income."

Yaani Liverpool wasipochukua ubingwa mwaka huu, basi hata Torres ataweka transfer request mezani. Benitez hana hata nafasi ya kusema "labda msimu ujao."
Torres targets title in "best competition"
September 17, 2009
Fernando Torres is sure the English top flight is still the world's greatest league - and is determined to help Liverpool become its champions once again.

Torres: Hoping for better this season.
The Reds travel to West Ham in the Premier League on Saturday as their quest continues to bring home the trophy that has eluded them for almost 20 years.
The division has changed beyond recognition since the last time Liverpool were crowned champions in 1990, with the influx of superstar foreigners like Spanish striker Torres placing it in the eyes of many above any other leagues across the globe.
Such feeling has cooled somewhat after a summer which has seen the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka and former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso arrive in Spain to boost the Primera Division's box office appeal.
But for Torres, who spent 12 years playing in his homeland with Atletico Madrid, there is no doubt that England is the place to be.
"As a competition it is the best one,'' Torres told the Press Association.
"When you are talking about organisation, respect, and having all the stadiums full every weekend, it is really nice to see that.
"In Spain they have some of the better players in the world, but as a competition, it is not as big as the Premier League.
"I was playing in Spain, and I can tell you honestly, the Premier League is a much better competition.''
Liverpool will be hoping for success both at home and abroad this year, but with the prospect lurking of Manchester United overtaking the record of 18 titles the two clubs jointly share, Torres admits that the Premier League may have to take priority.
"We know that for the fans, for the club and for the majority of the players, the Premier League is a fantastic competition and we have had plenty of years not winning it, so maybe it is the priority,'' he said.
"We don't feel the pressure, but we know it would not be the best for Liverpool fans to see Manchester United with more English titles than us.
"But I think we are on our way, we are doing everything in our power to win trophies and we will see what happens at the end of the season.''
The Spain striker said he was looking forward to giving the fans something to celebrate.
"I think the supporters cannot imagine what it would be like,'' Torres added.
"I saw when Liverpool won the Champions League, all the people around the city, and I remember when Spain won the European Championship and millions of people were in the street. I think it will be something similar.
"Twenty years with no trophy in the Premier League is a long time, so it is very exciting for all of us.''
Liverpool did not make the best start in their mission, suffering two defeats in their opening three league games.
But recent victories over Bolton and Burnley, along with a winning start this week in the Champions League against Debrecen, has given the side some momentum and Torres believes they are heading in the right direction.
"We are recovering the confidence now after winning three games in a row,'' he said.
"We have to keep on like this, but also improve, and keep working hard because there are difficult games coming.
"But we are on our way. There are some players injured and they will come back soon to help the team, but we don't have time to think in terms of the recovery of players and improving then - we have to win now.
"If we lose points in the coming weeks it will be very difficult to stay at the top come January and February.''
Somebody likely to play a key role in the weeks to come is midfielder Lucas, who has been given a run of starts since Alonso's departure and who Torres believes is becoming an integral part of the first XI.
"He is an international from Brazil, and this is not easy,'' Torres said.
"He is a fantastic player and he has to make a step forward now because Xabi has gone.
"He has the responsibility to become an important player for Liverpool and he has a real chance this season.
"He is playing in almost every game and we have real confidence in him.
"I am sure that he will get better in the future because he is still young. I hope he can be one of the best players for us this season.''
