After a long season, for any club to rank in the top 4 has a lot of kudos. This year might see any of Aston Villa, Tottenham and Man City break into that, with a very competitive top ten (currently, Birmingham, Everton and Fulham occupy the remaining top 10 spots). The Premier League has opened up, games are harder to predict. We don't need to inject a system to create more competition at the top end. Even Everton's manager David Moyles, whose team might benefit from any change to Champion's League play-off spots, had this to say: "You should be judged on where you are at the end of 38 games" and "If you finish fourth, you would be saying that you are the team who have done this over the season and asking why you are going into a play-off cheap modern rugsritestart women
