Stranger things have happened. Apart from the top two, no team has anything about them to frighten us, i reckon if we can be around the top four at christmas, and strengthen in January, then I reckon we will see the likes of Real Madrid at Fratton Park next season. Deluded? Probably? You decide!

I'm a Pompey fan born and bred and i'd like to believe so but i think any European qualification would be a fantastic achievement for us, i do think we need to bulk up our squad especially in defence because we are a bit thin there at the moment and the top half is so tight, you lose two or three games and before you know it you're in the bottom half, but like you say we can compete with anyone in that top half now and we are more than capable of scoring goals, (although i would like to see harry sign a top notch striker), and the boys are all working so well as a team, if we can nick points away from home we will be in Europe next season for sure, keep the faith PLAY UP POMPEY!!

I'm a chelsea fan and my best mate is a pompey fan. We had a bet in the summer. I said Chelsea would win Champs league before Pompey ever qualified for any european competition. Bare in mind i made this bet when pompey finished 17th, i think last season. Anyway, by the looks of things i'll be calling up Harry Redknapp and tell him he owes me fifty quid. The funny thing is Pompey have some money to spend, so i really do think they will certainly be up there come end of season, maybe top four is askin too much but definitley Europe beckons. Play up pompey!!!

No, I shouldn't think so. You might hang on for a UEFA cup place, but you don't have the strength in depth to cope with several injuries at once, as the Stefanovic problems show. Only teams with a huge squad or lots of luck with injuries (or, usually, both) finish in the top 4. Even as a Spurs fan I would love to see Pompey in Europe, I used to live 50m from the ground when I was a student down there!

The season is basically split into two,up to Christmas and after,if Pompey are still there at the transfer window and Harry strengthens the team (it would need to be about 15 million) i think they could do it cos they have got a great defence and i would also like to see them get it right up Wenger and Benitez who think they have a divine right to win all the time so good luck mate.(unfortunately i,m a rangers fan)....F*** the celtic.

I hate to say it as I'm a Saints fan but I think they stand a good chance and actually deserve to be in the position they are in at the moment, although have heard rumours of a some players being a little unsettled hope it doesn't go pear shaped, good luck and hears hoping Saints get to play Pompey again next year although you probably won't agree with that one

We have a legit shot, but as already said, a lot depends on injuries. It's two from Bolton, Pompey, Everton, Spurs, Villa, Liverpool and Arsenal, the final two must be the favourites but neither seem dead certs unlike in previous years.

they have some thing simiair in hockey, undecided what they do in soccer/soccer. They pass back to united states communities.. besides the fact that if in the process the familiar season a Canadian in on a US team or a russian on a canadian team. The coaches or whoever %. who the prefer for the canadian team and that they are in a place to %. gamers who're in many instances taking part in for different international locations. Russian, US etc does the comparable. One team in keeping with united states, all electorate. a genuine try of a rustic's skill.

I cant see why not i reckon 3rd and 4th spot could be there for the taking, due to arsenal and Liverpool's inconsistency. You've got a good squad Harry's got them playing well as long as you get no serious injuries. Good luck .
