Right now if we qualify for the CL that would be a successful season for us 
That's gone.No chance of catching up now.
If you look at the fixtures left we don't play any of the teams above us so no chance of taking points.
The only glimmer is that all the teams we need to edge out of top 4 are playing 2, 3 or even 4 of the other teams in top 6 before the end of the season so potentially they'll take points off each other giving us space.
Our run in is the easiest of the top 2-6 teams on paper and if we can sort form out we are in with a shout, although unlikely.

I wonder how much Klopp is focusing more on the CL than the league now, given that it probably represents our only opportunity to get back into the CL next season.
Given the seven changes against Fulham (I think only Firmino was a forced change due to injury), should answer that one.What on Earth are you on about? Top 4 is still very much attainable for your horrible lot. You're only 7 points off with 10 games to go! All the teams in the top 4 other than City will drop lots of points (hopefully not Utd, but that's hope rather than expectation). Find a bit of form and it's there.

1. There are several clubs around us with 1 or 2 games in hand.2. What is this "form" you talk about?
We have enough good players to go the rest of the season unbeaten. But for whatever reason, their "mentality" is weaker than last year. Gini said as much in the PC yesterday. As such, an unbeaten run seems very unlikely at the moment.
Gini also said he'd be "gutted" if he has to leave and said why. But clearly his contractual thing is all about getting as much as poss from 1 last major contract, which I can understand.
