ExiledGeordie Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 2 minutes ago, Turnbull2000 said: Europa League is at least a competition we could win. Missing out on CL to City/Villa/Chelsea will just set us back domestically by a couple of years. Not getting CL now from where we put ourselves would be a huge huge setback. It’s still very much in our hands Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be on it every game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 If someone said win the cup and get europa I would have snapped their hand off. Obviously want champions league but just going to enjoy the run in, instead of worrying about anything else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I think it’s between us Chelsea and Forest. Because I think Villa will beat City, and City’s run in is easy after that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm the opposite. Villa are very unconvincing away from home. Their underlying numbers are terrible, granted they've improved in recent weeks.

For it will be a huge disappointment not to get CL now and have significant ramifications this summer but what will be will be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically the thing that clapped us yesterday. That was their first away win since the 8th December and they did it in the last minute against a team that's on the beach. If we can't beat Chelsea at home (which I think we will) we want shot with shit, they belong nowhere near this CL race. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a great season whatever happens, but of course it would be hugely disappointing to miss out on CL from the position we have put ourselves in. The players, staff and management would feel the same. Edited April 20 by Sean Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Have to remind myself to enjoy it We're fucking third and I keep catching myself wishing the season away with us over the line. Wish it away while we're at the top though and soon enough we're in another season back to 0 and potentially in for a less-good season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy84 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 15 minutes ago, SUPERTOON said: All rests on getting Howe back for us imo. Should be okay against Ipswich, but if he isn’t back after that, I think we struggle to make top 5. Back after Ipswich I think based on absolutely nothing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novocastrian Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 City will beat Villa, they won’t want to get dragged down despite an ‘easier’ run in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 It’s not beyond the realms that we beat Ipswich and then beat Brighton leaving us needing to beat either Chelsea or Everton to seal it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 The Chelsea draw last week was a bonus. We always would need to beat them at home and if we have no further injuries or suspensions and Howe back I’m so confident we‘ll do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 People keep assuming City will qualify but they are liable to drop a bunch of points. Having the best goal difference I think will save them. it might be that close. Lose to Villa and they will need to win their remaining ifixtures Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
