ramirez Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Just ignoring Villa and City, if we win on Sunday and Chelsea and Forest don't we only need 2-3 points. If tat situation happens we ensure we finish above Chelsea the week after and it would also take a miracle for Forest or Villa to finish above us.

They'll want to keep momentum and win the league as emphatically as possible. That is the mentality champions have in any sport. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love if they win mind but I think the chances have reduced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool's back up players are more than good enough to beat a Chelsea side who until the last few games were routinely being booed off their pitch by their fans.

Displayname Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Checked the previous seasons where a team secured the title a few games before the season ended. The overall picture was a slight drop off in form, but none of them had a negative win/loss ratio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

City are nailed on and frankly I'll graciously let them have that after they done us a solid by putting daylight between us and Villa. Villa have a mountain to climb, it's not out of the question that they'll win all their remaining games but surely we'll be home and dry before they could worry us again. The two teams we need to collapse are the ones most likely to. One which is a very limited team in a false position and the other which is a notorious basket case and on the verge of their annual manager sacking. TL:DR; we'll be reet Edited May 2 by GallowgatePigeon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

et tu brute Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 It's up to us at the end of the day. We will know by the end of the Forest game, a much clearer picture on whether we are in a stronger position, no real change or if we are in a poorer position. A win would be massive though, as if we do, there maybe a possible opportunity that we can confirm qualification against Chelsea. None of the four teams this weekend has an easy game.

You're right, Villa's champions league chances will be probably dependent on the next two games. Win those two and they will be playing Tottenham and Man U teams with key players rested and thoughts on the Europa final (though it wouldn't probably matter anyway with their form this season). They probably need to win all four games to be even a worry for us, but, unfortunately both Fulham and Bournemouth's form has certainly dipped recently. Both need points though for their own European ambitions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Just for context, but fans of the most successful club of recent times, the only one to win four in a row, yes, Man City, still refer to poor results or unexpected events as "typical City". Their nonstop success has not stopped some fans looking on the negative side and half-expecting things to go wrong. For some football fans of some clubs, this condition seems incurable. For contrast, other fans of other clubs and pundits pandering to them have no problem in assuming they have already signed other clubs' prime assets, such as Alexander Isak.

That is the mentality champions have in any sport. Heard somewhere that if they win the remaining games their points tally will be higher than City’s last year? Something like that, if not quite that. Would definitely quieten the narrative about their being weak champions Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being pessimistic, it’s just a slight advantage for Chelsea in the fixture compared to otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

healthyaddiction Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 We could be two points clear of Forest and Chelsea on the last day of the season and some people on here will still be worried they'll both pick up 3 points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
