Beat Chelsea and we get top 5, don't beat them and it's going to be very hard, it's as simple as that . Always expected Chelsea to win yesterday so nothing has changed really with that result .

You can tell people who know football and those that don't when they question Eddie after a few bad results .

Said it weeks ago now but he's not been fit since before the cup final , he's playing because even a half Isak is better than anything else we could have up front .

Yeah I agree with this ,7 of our 8 away wins have came against the bottom 7 teams with Forest being the only team in the entire top 13 we have won at. Whilst we have dropped some daft home points that's always going to happen and I would presume most of the other teams around us have done similar .

Yeah been saying this for weeks , not unrealistic at all that Villa end up on 69 points which is more than I think we will get .

Yeah best thing to do if you are that way inclined is lay us on Betfair in the top 5 market.

Villa still worry me the most , I would be expecting at least 10 points from them four games if it was us and 12 isn't unrealistic either . That would mean we need another 7 including beating Chelsea.

Sound like a mackem here but by all accounts Fender had zero interest in football until the takeover either. Fair play to him as he's obviously not daft and cashed in massively on it .

As bad as they are look at the resources Man United and Spurs have compared to the other teams in the Europa. It's supposed to be a competition for smaller teams who don't have the resources to compete with the biggest clubs. it's turned into a farce this season as two clubs that are stinking out the domestic league they are in and should be embarrassed to be in the Europa when you look at the resources they have are both going to end up in the final .

I wouldn't want Rashford anywhere near us , aside from being hugely overrated he's lazy as fuck and a few decent games for Villa hasn't changed that.

Not sure why people are getting so wound up Man United won. You could tell they had the name on that trophy after the Lyon game and it has been proven countless times over the last few years that they are still capable of winning trophies despite how shit they have been due to the huge resources and wealth they have over pretty much everyone else barring Man City and Chelsea . The only annoying part about it is that it gets them back into the champions league .

I want Villa to miss out , they are our closest competitor really in terms of what they are trying to do so. Man City ourselves and Forest would be the best outcome .

Huge miss, people don't appreciate how good he is until he's not playing and we look all over the place in the middle . Could be the difference between 5th and 6th him being injured .

Man City and Forest are probably going to hit 70 points looking at the games they have left . Villa I can see getting at least another 10 which puts them on 67 but if they do win at Bournemouth we need 69. I think Chelsea win the two home games against Liverpool and Man United but as long as we beat them we will finish above them . 6 points should probably be enough really provided we beat Chelsea but 7 will almost certainly be enough .

I don't even think you can say he has a poor record when you look at that Norwich team he got promoted , they had no chance of staying up regardless of who the manager was .

Why is he trying to shoe-horn "United" into the equation? They genuinely aren't a step up from us now and I really believe Isak would be better off staying here .

Very strange one if true .

Think Delap ends up at Man United, they will be able to offer him more money than us and a guaranteed starting place. He would just be backup to Isak here.

Bournemouth away is pretty much the same as our Brighton away really . Villa will still likely win the other 3 games so that late goal for City last night was massive for us as Villa are still likely to get another 9/10 points .

I thought VAR was only supposed to get involved if it was a clear and obvious error ? Never in a million years was that clear and obvious .

I have a bad feeling Villa are going to cause all sorts of problems for Man City here and wouldn't be surprised at all if they won

Winning the three home games should be enough provided Villa don't win tonight . If they do win we are likely going to have to win the three home games and one of the away ones to finish above them .

Yep , surprised at the amount of people I have seen saying otherwise but a Villa win would be a disaster. Man City are getting top 5 regardless and looking at the fixtures Villa have after tomorrow they will get 70+ points if they beat Man City .

Yep if Villa were to beat Man City it's likely we will need to win all our home games plus one of the away ones to finish above them.

Whilst 8 away wins is an excellent return 6 of them have been against the bottom 6 and it was actually 7 wins against the bottom 7 before Wolves won yesterday.
