Yes it is true that if we beat Chelsea and villa draw then one more point for us secures top 5.

If we win our two home games then it guarantees us top 5 unless Villa or Forest end up on the same points as us and manage to overcome the huge difference in goal difference.

To be fair that’s one of the quickest VAR decisions I’ve seen for a while.

In fact I think if we beat Chelsea and Everton, baring a massive swing in goal difference between us Forest and Villa we are mathmatically guaraanteed top 5.

City won't and I don;t think Villa will either. We need 69 points includign a win against Chelsea and we will be fine, anything at Arsenal will be a bonus.

It's always has been: Brighton D Chelsea W Arsenal L Everton W That will be enough. We haven't slipped up today.

Job done.

Tonali is honking today.

Two wins at home and a draw today we will be in CL next season. Thats all we need.

Feels a bit 95/96 this for Forest. Feel for them but delighted for us.

Agreed, but the minimum we need is a Draw at Arseanl or Brighton and win our two home games and thats guaranteed unless Chelsea overturn our goal difference as all three could end up on 69 points.

Not if Villa win all there games we aren't, we also would need a draw too.

Some limbs there, fair play.

Been coming that. Get in.

I think the Brighton away game will be pivotal for us. If City beat Villa then I think we pip Villa on goal difference only. If Villa beat City then we will need to beat Brighton to finish above City. If Villa and City draw then we need to beat Brighton to pip Villa. Assuming we win all our home games, get beat off Arsenal and City and Villa win all their games which on paper looks doable. If Villa make up their goal difference then a win at Brighton would be needed. It's also assuming Forest don't capitulate, which I don't think they will. Getting beat off Brighton is unthinkable for us.

Does Arsenal winning the CL help us? Would 6th get CL if that were to happen?

Risk reward maybe?

Most are underestimating how bad you are with this, he won't be right again for 4 to 6 weeks. He really shoudln't be anywhere near the club for another 3 weeks. He just needs to take care of himself and not push himself no matter what.

It’s never been as good as this. Get in.

Working himself into the ground without enough rest. Will take him a fair few weeks to get over that.

It’s a bit twitter in here.

Not much you can change when the players don’t seem up for it.

Dr Newcastle will see you now.

Trippier both goals. Back on the bench please.

Unlucky for Birmingham that.
