Alberto2005 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Avoid defeat to Villa on Saturday and I think we're certs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 We've got a 5 point advantage and a better goal difference than the two competitors that count (Villa and Chelsea), also Chelsea are in the depths of despair. We are coasting to be fair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 If, and its a big if, we win at the weekend, and Chelsea also lose a Craven Cottage, we'll be 8 points clear of 6th with on 15 points remaining. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyc35i Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 (edited) This weekend could be pivotal as every one of the teams fighting for the places has a very difficult game. If we avoid defeat against Villa we could quite easily have a bigger gap over Forest and Chelsea Edited April 16 by andyc35i Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joelinton7 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Forest ain’t getting 70 points. We might need less but that’ll make sure imo. Chelsea are too inconsistent and honestly.. shit. City and Villa are the big challengers for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theregulars Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Incredible. Just well played, it’s mad how we can just go on these runs and slap teams silly on the way. This is just an unparalleled time to be a Newcastle fan, it’s literally dreamland. I live near palace and play so many of their troglodyte fans in 7 a side, can’t wait to wear black and white tomorrow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Crazy season, really. Still feel we dropped some unnecessary points in the first half of the season - and yet here we are. Just shows how difficult the league's been for everyone this year. Really hoped we had gotten more goals against Leicester to get that GD up, as it will be like an extra point in the run in. Two games later - here we also are. Just love this team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamPS Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Villa will really target this game as they have City away on Tuesday and the cup semi final on Saturday after. Losing both league games could finish off their CL hopes, losing the cup semi ends any hopes of a trophy. I reckon they’ll go all in on Saturday and then play the B team (which beat Forest away so no pushovers) at City. I think this will be the toughest game left this season, but a win will finish off Villa as a CL rival - fantastic opportunity Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea are too inconsistent and honestly.. shit. City and Villa are the big challengers for me. 70 is usually enough for 4th. 5th will take 68 max. Maybe as little as 66 or 65. Villa will likely need a point more than anyone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

t00nt00n313 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 66 will probably be enough so long as we dont lose to Chelsea. 68 would nearly guarantee us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emery seems to be rotating all of them - all the time. At least the big hitters are not consistently getting 90s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erikse Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 (edited) I still think Man City isn't much to think about purely from a top 5 perspective, as I think it's highly unlikely for them to stumble that much against those teams. After Forests game against Villa I still thought they would make it, but I was surprised to see them lose again at home to Everton. They're still in a decent spot, but if they get yet another loss (or draw) next weekend then things are starting to look really scary for them.

ExiledGeordie Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 So is it roughly 3 more wins for CL? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
