NWMag Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago If it stays like this, we beat Leicester and Palace (which we should be doing) we are only 1 point behind Forest. Still catchable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellis H Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago If we win the 2 games in hand we’ll be 5 points clear of Villa, who we then play. Could end up 8 points ahead with 5 games left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago 9 hours ago, The Prophet said: Fancy a Villa win. They've only lost once at home all season (granted there's a lot of draws in there) and Forest have been sus away from home of late. If (a big if) we can win our next three and add to Villa's draw tally at home, we're laughing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say the Palace and Villa games will give us a much greater idea of how things might pan out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a better goal difference, a game in hand and still have to play them. Add to that they still look pretty brittle to me and they’ve got the fa cup and CL to contend with still. I’d argue it’s better that Forest gets dragged back into it a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does mean we've got a better chance of catching Forrest though. Win at Leicester and we're only four points off them and a game to spare. Realistically, we could win the next three and be 3rd, won't be easy but it's do able. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago If we win the next three, then we'll be in a very strong position to qualify top 5. I actually think Gordon will be key to this. I'm hoping we have a reaction, for his recent stupidity and additionally, with the fans sticking by him (unlike Everton fans), I honestly believe he will be really fired up on his return.

NobbySolano Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago I've been saying for a bit, I don't know why people are counting arsenal a sure thing for second. They dropped points today. They have big games coming up and don't have the depth or quality. I wouldn't be surprised if they drop more points and get in the fight for champions league.

Its been a weird season Cup win and scouse fan/club reaction has essentially vanquished the demons of my Liverpool hatred. For now at least. Villa have been feeling similar teething pains to us, after treading the same CL path and squad/PSR restrictions we did. I'm unlikely to ever drop my Lee Dixon inspired Arsenal hatred but Manure aside I've lost a ton of my anger to clubs. Palace don't bother me, they are below us.
