Ikon Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago (edited) 1 minute ago, 500bhp said: Two of our rivals played tonight. Between them they accumulated 3 points, if it was a draw it would have been 2 points accumulated. How is Man City winning better than a draw! Their last games are very easy on paper. That’s why!! Keeps Villa some distance away too. Edited 13 hours ago by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago For those keep asking: Man City have got Wolves (H), Southampton (A), Bournemouth (H) and Fulham (A). They're not gonna drop any points now, so we need to stay ahead of Chelsea (who we get to play at home) and Villa (Who lost tonight potentially putting us 5 in front if we beat Ipswich). Villa have a relatively easy fixture list but if we win our home games they can't catch us and Chelsea have the toughest run in of all of us. Man City winning tonight puts us in pole position for top 4 and now with a cushion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Win the 3 homes and grab anything away and it's a cert (and that's assuming Villa are perfect and win all of their last 4). 5 big games but I'm confident Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea play Liverpool at home that weekend and Villa at home to Fulham. Forest home to Brentford who’ve picked up a bit. So could be a significant weekend.

Between them they accumulated 3 points, if it was a draw it would have been 2 points accumulated. How is Man City winning better than a draw! Because City’s fixtures are piss easy and they should comfortably walk into the top 5. Villa now have zero margin for error. The max points they can achieve is 69. It means that, chances are, 3 wins will definitely be enough for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago (edited) I think this is now a play off game between us and Chelsea if we both win this weekend. Gonna be some twist and turns though, it's us after all. Edited 13 hours ago by Bimpy474 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
