The Europeometer™ (2023/24) - permutations in O.P.

[Ben]

Howay Brentford 

[Miggys First Goal]

Just win our remaining home games and we're fine. Nowt to worry about.

[Optimistic Nut]

Win tomorrow and watch Man Utd shit themselves against West Ham. 

[SUPERTOON]

Looking like 2 wins will do it for us.

[Jack27]

Imagine how many arses are gonna be running if they lose tomorrow (mine included)

[Miggys First Goal]

So they've got Leicester next who are still fighting for their lives down the bottom. Hopefully a tough game. Fingers crossed.

[Miggys First Goal]

Even if Liverpool win all remaining games, we still only need 2 wins and a draw, if my Steiner maths is correct, to secure top 4. I'm still confident.

Arsenal and Brighton are arguably the hardest 2 home games we could ask for apart from city.

Newcastle away is definitely one of the hardest games Arsenal and Brighton could ask for, apart from City

We have Leicester at home and Leeds away who are shite. We've also lost once at home all season where we were 2 down and down to 10 men in 20 minutes yet the opposition's goalkeeper won man of the match.

[Optimistic Nut]

I was expecting Liverpool to have won 3 and taken 6-7 out of our goal difference since our last match so all things considered, the 3 one goal wins could be worth a draw to us.

I’m not disagreeing I was just replying to the post about winning 2 out of 3 home games. Despite our brilliant home form Arsenal and Brighton are 2 of the 3 hardest opponents to play against imo.

[Miggys First Goal]

We should be handing Leeds an absolute arse whipping next week.

[Scotty66]

Feel like pure shit just want Champions League

We got more than a 33 and a third per cent chance I reckon

[Away Toon]

We are going to get what we deserve ultimately and that's all we can really hope for.

[Kanji]

Just need to beat Leicester at home and Leeds away. And oh wait we still have or need to get 1 point from 1 of Brighton, Arsenal and Chelsea. 

[Chris_R]

I don't care what Liverpool do, it's not on their hands. We just need to not implode, and given everything we've seen about the team since Howe came in, we'll not implode. Let Liverpool win all their games, it won't matter.

Newcastle is arguably the hardest away game those two could ask for apart from City.

If it was just that it wouldn't be bed wetting.

 

Haven't looked back at all the posts admittedly and only caught the tail end but haven't seen anybody say we were going to collapse.

Drawing with Arsenal and Brighton e.g. would be about par for the season rather than collapse, one's been a bit better, one's been a bit worse and its all predicated on Liverpool winning all their games, which they're probably more likely to do than not by the looks of it.

People are just different. Folks over confidence can make others nervous and peoples caution can agitate others.

[The Prophet]

It'd be superb if Liverpool made our life a bit easier, but you're always made to work for positions at the top of the table.

 

We just need to focus on getting two more wins, which given our fixtures we've gone to pot if we don't.

[Ketsbaia]

7pts is a big ask, I know there's a good vibe right now and lots of 'on the brink' stuff but it's asking a lot. 

 

We definitely have a worse set of fixtures than Man U, Liverpool.

 

Just have to hope Leicester (a) or Villa (h) finally help us out. And that these 1-0 wins takes the requirement down to 6pts.

[ilikenewcastle]

Sky seem to be suggesting that only Man Utd are under threat from Liverpool. Honestly every non-Newcastle fan in the country thinks we have top 4 in the bag. Few more weeks of shitting myself though!

That sums it up nicely.

I'm still pretty bullish Liverpool will drop points. As Spurs and Villa have discovered, you tend to revert to the mean after a while.

 

If Liverpool getting nine points was the sole factor at play, I might be a bit more nervous though. But they have to get nine points AND hope that we don't get seven to displace us. We're 3rd, have won 8 out of 9 and have 7th, 11th, 16th and 17th to play.

 

I'm not taking for granted that there's work to do, I just have faith that we will do it. Naturally the longer it's prolonged, the more likely nervous are to kick in.
